Answer: 13.8 moles of
CO_2 and 18.4 moles of
H_2O will be produced

Step-by-step explanation:

The given balanced reaction is;


C_3H_8(g)+5O_2(g)\rightarrow 3CO_2(g)+4H_2O(g)

Given : 4.6 moles of
C_3H_8

According to stoichiometry :

1 mole of
C_3H_8 give = 3 moles of
CO_2

Thus 4.6 moles of
C_3H_8 will give =
(3)/(1)* 4.6=13.8moles of
CO_2

1 mole of
C_3H_8 give = 4 moles of
H_2O

Thus 4.6 moles of
C_3H_8 give =
(4)/(1)* 4.6=18.4moles of
H_2O

Thus 13.8 moles of
CO_2 and 18.4 moles of
H_2O will be produced from the given moles of reactant
C_3H_8
