As early as 1938, the use of NaOH was sugested as a means of removing CO2 from the cabin of a spacecraft according to the following (unbalanced) reaction: NaOH + CO2 --> Na2CO3 + H2O

A) If the average human body discharges 925.0g CO2 per day, how many moles of NaOH are needed each day for each person in the spacecraft?

B) How many moles of each product are formed?
