how many grams of oxygen gas are needed to produce 10.0 grams of carbon dioxide according to the balanced equation of CH4

Alinara [238K]

Molar mass of :

O2 = 16 * 2 = 32 g/mol

CO2 = 12 + 16 * 2 = 44 g/mol

<span>Balanced chemical equation :
</span>
1 CH4 + 2 O2 = 1 CO2 + 2 H2O
↓ ↓
2 moles 1 mole

2* 32 g O2 ----------> 1* 44 g CO2
x g O2 ------------> 10.0 g CO2

44 x = 2 * 32*10.0

44 x = 640

$x = \frac{640}{44}$

$x = 14.54 g$ of O2
