Question

To be able to produce a small amount of CO2 in the laboratory, 35 mL of 0.11 M Na2C2O4 and 20 mL of 0.25 M KMnO4 solutions are reacted in acidic aqueous conditions based on the following unbalanced reaction.
C2O4 2- + MnO4 - Mn2+ + CO2 (g)
What is the maximum amount of CO2 in grams that can be obtained out of this reaction?
Determine the limiting reagent and which compound the remaining end of the reaction and how many grams? (Each step of balancing redox reaction must be clearly shown.)
