The correct answer is: $0.916$
$\begin{array}{l}
2 \mathrm{LiOH}+\mathrm{CO}_{2} \longrightarrow \mathrm{Li}_{2} \mathrm{CO}_{3}+\mathrm{H}_{2} \mathrm{O} \\
\frac{1}{24} \frac{1}{24 \times 2}
\end{array}$
No. of moles of $\mathrm{CO}_{2}=\frac{1}{48}$
mass of $\mathrm{CO}_{2}=\frac{1}{48} \times 44=0.916 \mathrm{~g}$
