Problem: 3.70 moles of sodium hydroxide are reacted with 2.00 moles of carbon dioxide according to the balanced equation: 2 NaOH(s) + CO2(g) → Na2CO3(s) + H2O(l) b. How many moles of Na2CO3 can be made from 2.00 mol CO2?

2 NaOH_(s) + CO_2(g) → Na₂CO_3(s) + H₂O_(l)

b. How many moles of Na₂CO₃ can be made from 2.00 mol CO₂?

The flow for this problem will be like this:

Moles of CO₂(mole-to-mole comparison) → Moles of CO₂
