During the combustion reaction C + O₂ → CO₂, complete combustion of 24 g of carbon produces

A. 22.4 L of CO₂ at STP
B. 44.8 L of CO₂ at STP
C. 11.2 L of CO₂ at STP
D. 33.6 L of CO₂ at STP

📝 Explanation

Carbon has a molar mass of 12 g mol⁻¹. Thus, 24 g = 2 moles of C, producing 2 moles (44.8 L) of CO₂ at STP. Concept tested: Integrated mass-mole-volume calculation.
