Question

C3H8 (g) + O2(g) → CO2 (g) + H2O(g)

How many moles of carbon dioxide will be produced from 3.85 moles of propane? _________

Can someone please show the work and the answer much appreciated

Answer 1

11.55 mol ≈ 11.6 mol CO2

Step-by-step explanation:

C3H8 (g) + 5O2(g) → 3CO2 (g) + 4H2O(g)

from reaction 1 mol 3 mol

given 3.85 mol x mol

Solving proportion

x =(3.85*3)/1 = 11.55 mol ≈11.6 mol
