Question

For the balanced equation shown below, how many moles of CO2 will react with 0.708 moles of H2O.

3CO2 + 4H2O --> C3H8 + 5O2

** im pretty sure it needs to be rounded to the tenth

Answer 1

0.5 moles of CO2 will react with 0.708 moles of H2O.

Step-by-step explanation:

`\sf balanced \ equation = 3CO2 + 4H2O \rightarrow C3H8 + 5O2`

• 0.708 moles of H2O

using molar ratio:

4H2O : 3CO2

4 : 3

so H2O moles:

`\sf(0.708)/(4) *3`

`\sf 0.531` moles of CO2
