Determine the mass of CO2 produced by burning enough carbon (in the form of charcoal) to produce 510 kJ of heat. C(s) O2(g)CO2(g)ΔHrxn393.5k?

The heat produced by burning 1 mol of carbon to form CO2 is 393.5 kJ. To produce 510 kJ of heat, we utilize the ratio of heat produced to calculate the moles of CO2 produced as (510 kJ / 393.5 kJ) mol CO2. The molar mass of CO2 is 44.01 g/mol, so the mass of CO2 produced is (510/393.5) * 44.01 g.
