A major component of gasoline is octane (CH₁g). When octane is burned in air, it chemically reacts with oxygen gas (0₂) to produ
1 answer:
To solve such this we must know the concept of chemical reaction. Therefore, mass of carbon dioxide is produced by the reaction of 6.1 g of oxygen gas is 5.28g.
<h3>What is chemical reaction? </h3>Chemical reaction is a process in which two or more than two molecules collide in right orientation and energy to form a new chemical compound. The mass of the overall reaction should be conserved. There are so many types of chemical reaction reaction like combination reaction, double displacement reaction.
2CH
+ 25O
→ 16CO
+ 18H
O
Mass of oxygen= 6.1 g
Molar mass of oxygen=32 g/mol
number of moles of oxygen= 6.1 g÷32 g/mol=0.19mol
From 25 mole of O, 16 mol of CO
is produced.
From 0.19 mole of O, (16÷25)×0.19 = 0.12mol of CO
is produced.
mass of CO=0.12mol ×44.01 g/mol=5.28g
Therefore, mass of carbon dioxide is produced by the reaction of 6.1 g of oxygen gas is 5.28g.
