In the following reaction, how many liters of oxygen produce 560 liters of
saw5 [17]

The balanced chemical reaction will be:

CH4 + 2O2 → CO2 + 2H2O

We are given the amount of carbon dioxide to produce from the reaction. This will be our starting point.

 

560 L CH4 ( 1 mol CH4/ 22.4 L CH4 ) (2 mol O2/ 1 mol CH4 ) ( 22.4 L O2 / 1 mol <span>O2</span><span>) = 1120 L O2</span>
