The balanced reaction is given as:
2Ca(s)+O2(g)→2CaO(s)
We are given the amount of oxygen gas to be used for the reaction. This will be the starting point of our calculations.
0.016 mol O2 ( 2 mol CaO / 1 mol O2 ) = 0.032 mol CaO
Therefore, for the reaction, the amount of calcium oxide produced is 0.032 moles.
