Question

How many moles of ethane is required to produce 44 g of co2 g after combustion
I can't u

Answer 1

Answer:

Reaction for the combustion of the Ethane is -

2C²H6 + 7O² ----------->4CO² + 6H²O

From this reaction,

Since, 4 mole of the carbon dioxide is prepared by the 2 mole of the Ethane.

Therefore, 1 mole of the carbon dioxide is prepared by the 0.5 mole of the Ethane

since, 1 mole of the carbon dioxide = 44g

Therefore, moles of the Ethane required for the combustion is 0.5 moles.
