Answer:

1. 2C2H6 + 7O2 —> 4CO2 + 6H2O

2. 56moles of O2

Explanation:

Ethane undergo Combustion to produce CO2 and H20 according the equation below:

C2H6 + O2 —> CO2 + H2O

Let us balance the equation. There are 6 atoms of H on the left side and 2 atoms on the right side. It can be balanced by putting 3 in front of H2O as shown below:

C2H6 + O2 —> CO2 + 3H2O

There are 2 atoms of C on left and 1atom on the right. It can be balanced by putting 2 in front of CO2 as shown below:

C2H6 + O2 —> 2CO2 + 3H2O

There are a total of 7 atoms of O on the right and 2 atoms on the left. It can be balanced by putting 7/2 in front of O2 as shown below:

C2H6 + 7/2O2 —> 2CO2 + 3H2O

Now we multiply through by 2 to remove the fraction as shown below

2C2H6 + 7O2 —> 4CO2 + 6H2O

Now the equation is balanced

2. 2C2H6 + 7O2 —> 4CO2 + 6H2O

From the equation above,

2 moles of ethane(C2H6) combined with 7moles of O2.

Therefore, 16moles of ethane(C2H6) will combine with = (16x7)/2 = 56moles of O2

The coin of silver (ag) having 8.5 grams weight.calculate the number of moles of silver in coin
AfilCa [17]

0.0788 will be the number of moles of silver in coin.

<h3><u>How to find the number of moles?</u></h3>

A mole is the mass of a material made up of the same number of fundamental components. Atoms in a 12 gram example are identical to 12C. Depending on the material, the fundamental units may be molecules, atoms, or formula units.

A mole fraction shows how many chemical elements are present. The value of 6.023 x 10²³ is equivalent to one mole of any material (Avagadro's number). It can be used to quantify the chemical reaction's byproducts. The symbol for the unit is mol.

The number of moles formula is denoted by the following expression:

Number of moles = Mass of substance/mass of one mole
