Carbon monoxide gas is used in the blast furnace process to convert iron ore to impure pig

Question:

Carbon monoxide gas is used in the blast furnace process to convert iron ore to impure pig iron. Carbon dioxide is used as a fire extinguisher and to make dry ice. Starting with coal, carbon undergoes the following reactions. 

2 C(g) + O2(g) → 2 CO(g) 

2 CO(g) + O2(l) → 2 CO2(g) 

Starting with 25.0 g of carbon and excess oxygen gas, calculate:

(a) The mass of carbon dioxide produced

(b) The volume of carbon dioxide produced at STP

(c) The mass of oxygen consumed in the process.
