**The Synthesis of Maleic Acid Anhydride**The synthesis of maleic acid anhydride (C₄H₂O₃) can be accomplished by reacting benzene (C₆H₆) and oxygen gas in the following chemical reaction:\[ 2 \text{C}_6\text{H}_6(l) + 9 \text{O}_2(g) \rightarrow 2 \text{C}_4\text{H}_2\text{O}_3(s) + 4 \text{CO}_2(g) + 4 \text{H}_2\text{O}(g) \]**Question:**What is the mass in grams of carbon dioxide that is produced from 38.0 grams of benzene?**Explanation:**This problem involves a stoichiometric calculation based on the balanced chemical equation provided. The reactants and products include benzene (liquid), oxygen gas, maleic acid anhydride (solid), carbon dioxide gas, and water vapor. To find the mass of carbon dioxide produced, the molar mass and stoichiometric ratios are needed to convert from grams of benzene to grams of carbon dioxide.
