Balance the equation first:

1C4H10 + 13O2 ----> 8CO2 + 10H2O

As we know oxygen is in excess, butane is the limiting reactant.
the ratio between butane and CO2 is 1-8
Therfore
1:8
6:x
x=48
48 moles of CO2 will be produced

Answer: 24 moles

Explanation:

Combustion is a type of chemical reaction in which hydrocarbon is oxidized to carbon dioxide and water.

The balanced chemical reaction for combustion of butane is :

2C_4H_{10}+13O_2\rightarrow 8CO_2+10H_2O

According to stoichiometry,

Given: Oxygen is the excess reagent. Thus butane is the limiting reagent as it limits the formation of product.

2 moles of butane gives 8 moles of carbon dioxide.

Thus 6 moles of butane will give=\frac{8}{2}\times 6=24moles of carbon dioxide.

Describe the characteristics of the moon and the Earth for each phase of the
Yuri [45]
Before we describe the phases of the Moon, let's describe what they're not. Some people mistakenly believe the phases come from Earth's shadow cast on the Moon. Others think that the Moon changes shape due to clouds. These are common misconceptions, but they're not true. Instead, the Moon's phase depends only on its position relative to Earth and the Sun.

The Moon doesn't make its own light, it just reflects the Sun's light as all the planets do. The Sun always illuminates one half of the Moon. Since the Moon is tidally locked, we always see the same side from Earth, but there's no permanent "dark side of the Moon." The Sun lights up different sides of the Moon as it orbits around Earth – it's the fraction of the Moon from which we see reflected sunlight that determines the lunar phase.
