Question

The balanced equation below shows the products that are formed when butane (C4H10) is combusted.

2C4H10 + 1302 ——>8CO2 +10H20
What is the mole ratio of butane to carbon dioxide?
2:8
1:5
13:8
13.:10

Answer 1

A) 2:8

Step-by-step explanation:

Took the quiz and was right

Answer 2

2:8

Step-by-step explanation:

The reaction equation is a given as:

2C₄H₁₀ + 130₂ → 8CO₂ + 10H₂O

From the reaction equation, the mole ratio is 2:8

Butane is C₄H₁₀

Carbon dioxide CO₂

From the reaction;

2 moles of butane will produce 8 moles of carbon dioxide
