If 5 grams of oxygen combines with 37.2 grams of uranium to form uranium oxide how many grams of the oxide are formed?

To find the grams of uranium oxide formed, we need to determine the molar mass of uranium and oxygen, calculate the moles of each element present, and finally the moles of uranium oxide formed. Then, we convert moles to grams using the molar mass of uranium oxide. The final answer for the grams of uranium oxide formed depends on the stoichiometry of the reaction.
