Question

Sugar reacts with concentrated sulfuric acid in an exothermic reaction called the "Carbon Snake" reaction, according to the balanced equation below.

2 C12H22011 (S) + 2 H2504 (2g) + 02 (g) > 22 C (S) + 2 CO2 (g)

 + 24 H20 (g) + 2 SO2 (g)

How many grams of solid carbon is produced from the reaction of 21.00 mL of a 9.00% (m/m) sulfuric acid solution with excess sugar? The density of the sulfuric acid solution is 1.618 g/mL
