Solution

The correct option is C $11 g$
This is governed by the law of definite proportion. Carbon and oxygen combine in $3 : 8$ ratio. So $11 g$ of carbon dioxide is formed.

Hence, in the latter case too, only $8 g$ of $O_{2}$ will be reacted with 3g of carbon (because carbon is the limiting reagent here ) to form 11g of $C O_{2}$ and $42 g$ of oxygen will remain unreacted.

Hence, the correct option is C.
