Textbook Question
Chapter 10, Problem 36PS
A self-contained underwater breathing apparatus (SCUBA) uses canisters containing potassium superoxide. The superoxide consumes the CO2 exhaled by a person and replaces it with oxygen.
4 KO2(s) + 2 CO2(g) → 2 K2CO3(s) + 3 O2(g)
What mass of KO2, in grams, is required to react with 8.90 L of CO2 at 22.0 °C and 767 mm Hg?
