Question

What volume (in L) of carbon dioxide will be produced from the reaction of 37.4 L of oxygen?

2C2H6(g)+70=O2(g)--->4CO2(g)+6H2O(g)

Answer 1

21.4 L

Step-by-step explanation:

Given data:

Volume of carbon dioxide produced = ?

Volume of oxygen = 37.4 L

Solution:

Chemical equation:

2C₂H₆ + 7O₂ → 4CO₂ + 6H₂O

It is known that,

1 mole = 22.414 L

There are 7 moles of oxygen = 7×22.414 = 156.9 L

There are 4 moles of carbon dioxide = 4×22.414 = 89.66 L

Now we will compare:

O₂ : CO₂

156.9 : 89.66

37.4 : 89.66/156.9×37.4 = 21.4 L

So from 37.4 L of oxygen 21.4 L of carbon dioxide is produced.
