Balanced equation: 2C6H8O6 + O2 = 2C6H6O6 + 2H2O


So I've balanced the equation, and the question is: How many mole of oxygen gas is required to react with 1000.0mg of vitamin C.


I got as far as this;

mols vitamin C= grams/molar mass

= 1g/ 176.12706


I'm really confused and not sure if I'm going in the right direction and don't know where to go from here

Verified Answer :

It might be .011355439 moles oxygen using the dimensional analysis formula i divided by the molar mass of the ascorbic acid then multiplied by the molar mass of the O2
