The given chemical reaction is
[tex]2Ca+O_{2} \to 2CaO[/tex]
Here we have to calculate how many moles of CaO can be produced from the given mass of Ca.
In the above balanced reaction 2 moles of CaO has formed from 2 moles of Ca.
The given mass of Ca = 4.20 g
Mass of [tex]O_{2}[/tex] = 2.80 g
Moles of CaO can be calculated as follows,
Mass of a Ca [tex]\times[/tex][tex]\frac{2 moles of CaO}{2 moles of Ca}[/tex]= 4.20g of Ca [tex]\times[/tex] [tex]\frac{2 moles of CaO}{2 \times 40.08g of Ca}[/tex] = 0.105 mole of CaO
Thus 0.105 moles of CaO can be produced from the given mass of Ca.
