Detailed Solution

The reaction is as follow;

C2712+O28832CO2 n=2.25, n=2.75

We can observe that the limiting reagent in this case is C.

Moles of CO2 in produced= Moles of C =2712=2.25

Volume of CO2 at STP=2.25×22.4=50.4L

Ratio of C and O in CO2=12:32=3:8

Moles of unreacted O2​=2.75−2.25=0.5 mol.
Volume of unreacted O2 at STP =0.5×22.4=11.2 L.
