Correct Answer: option C: Formation of sea ice

Reason:
 In cold regions, changes in salinity alters the water present in ocean. Further, water density also changes with temperature. In general, water density in ocean water increases with decreasing temperature. This is because, when salt is ejected into the ocean as sea ice forms, the water's salinity increases. Since, salt water is heavier, the density of the water increases.

This is the balances equations. C3H8 + 5O2 → 3CO2 + 4H2O How many moles of oxygen are required to produce 37.15 g CO2

AleksandrR [38]

Molar mass O2 = 31.99 g/mol

Molar mass CO2 = 44.01 g/mol

Moles ratio:

C3H8 + 5 O2 = 3 CO2 + 4 H2O

5 x 44.01 g O2 ---------------- 3 x 44.01 g CO2
( mass of O2) ------------------ 37.15 g CO2

mass of O2 = 37.15 x 5 x 44.01/ 3 x 44.01

mass of O2 = 8174.8575 / 132.03

mass of O2 = 61.916 g

Therefore:

1 mole O2 ----------------- 31.99 g
moles O2 -------------------- 61.916

moles O2 = 61.916 x 1 / 31.99

moles = 61.916 / 31.99 => 1.935 moles of O2
