<u>Answer</u>

So this is the reaction that happens. 
<span>C4H10 + O2 = CO2 + H2O </span>

<span>Balanced, it is </span>
<span>2C4H10 + 8O2 = 8CO2 + 10H2O </span>

<span>Given 1 kg or 1000 g of butane, use stoichiometry aka factor labeling aka conversions and mole ratios to get to grams of oxygen. </span>

<span>I'll do an example. Let's form water. Hydrogen is diatomic too. </span>
<span>2H2 + O2 = 2H2O </span>

<span>Given 1000 g of Hydrogen, I need to know how many grams of oxygen to use. To convert grams to moles,
I know that 1 mol of H2 equals 2.02 g. Then, for every mole of O2, there are 2 moles of H2. Then converting moles of O2 to grams, I know that one mole of it equals 32 grams. </span>
<span>[1000 g H2] x [1 mol H2/2.02 g H2] x [1 mol O2/2 mol H2] x [32 g O2/1 mol O2] </span>

<span>My answer would be  7.9 kg </span>

Why is NH3 soluble in H20 but NCl3 is not?
storchak [24]
NH3 is soluble in water because it has the same amount of intermolecular forces as water. NH3 is a polar molecule and water  is a polar molecule so they dissolve each other. NCl3 does not dissolve in water because it is a nonpolar molecule which is different with water. NCl3 is nonpolar due to the difference in electronegativities between 3 atoms of Cl and 1 atom if N2.
