Solution

The correct option is C 36.7 g
$C_{6} H_{12} O_{6} + 6 O_{2} \to 6 C O_{2} + 6 H_{2} O$
Moles of oxygen $= \frac{40}{32} = 1.25$ mol
Moles of glucose $= \frac{25}{180} = 0.139$ mol
Finding the limiting reagent:
$For oxygen = \frac{given moles}{stoichiometric coefficient} = \frac{1.25}{6} = 0.208$ $For glucose = \frac{given moles}{stoichiometric coefficient} = \frac{0.139}{1} = 0.139$
Since, the ratio is minimum for glucose, it will be the limiting reagent.
1 mole of glucose produces 6 mol of $C O_{2}$
0.139 mol will produce $= \frac{6}{1} \times 0.139 = 0.834$ mol of $C O_{2}$
Mass of $C O_{2} = 0.834 \times 44 = 36.69 g$
