Answer:

0.846 moles.

Explanation:

  • This is a stichiometric problem.
  • The balanced equation of complete combustion of butane is:

C₄H₁₀ + 6.5 O₂ → 4 CO₂ + 5 H₂O

  • It is clear from the stichiometry of the balanced equation that complete combustion of 1.0 mole of butane needs 6.5 moles of O₂ to produce 4 moles of CO₂ and 5 moles of H₂O.

<u><em>Using cross multiplication:</em></u>

  • 1.0 mole of C₄H₁₀ reacts with → 6.5 moles of O₂
  • ??? moles of C₄H₁₀ are needed to react with → 5.5 moles of O₂
  • The number of moles of C₄H₁₀ that are needed to react with 5.5 moles of O₂ = (1.0 x 5.5 moles of O₂) / (6.5 moles of O₂) = 0.846 moles.

Conservation of mass was discussed in the background. describe how conservation of mass (actual, not theoretical) could be check
rosijanka [135]

Conservation of mass can be checked in an experiment . There are three steps to do it in a best way:

1. Weigh all the equipment and materials required in the experiment before the experiment.

2. Avoid spillage and evaporation during the experiment.

3. Weigh all the equipment and materials after the experiment.

If the mass is conserved then weight from step 1 is equal to weight from step 3.

What term represents a compound
alukav5142 [94]
Compound can be described using element symbol and numbers .  it is a mixture which is result of two or more chemical element in such a way that atoms of different elements held together  by chemical compound that are difficult to break . Most often a compound looks and behave like an element 
 for example :-   Hydrogen   and oxygen ..   both of these elements are gaseous at room temperature and atmospheric pressure , but when both combined they both form compound water . ( H2O )
