Well, yes, we know that the molar mass of carbon dioxide is
Explanation:
And thus we can approach the problem dimensionally, i.e. if asked to give the mass of two moles of carbon dioxide...we take the product....
The units cancel appropriately to give an answer in grams, as we require for a mass. Capisce?
