Question

How many moles of h2o are produced when 3.25 moles of o2 react in 2c2h6 + 7o2 ---> 4co2 + 6h2o

Answer 1

2.78 moles of water are produced.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given data:

Number of moles of H₂O produced = ?

Number of moles of oxygen react = 3.25 mol

Solution:

Chemical equation:

2C₂H₆ + 7O₂ → 4CO₂ + 6H₂O

Now we will compare the moles of water with oxygen.

O₂ : H₂O

7 : 6

3.25 : 6/7×3.25 = 2.78 mol
