Answer:
Oil is the most viscous liquid.
Answer:
4.79 g of water
Explanation:
From the reaction equation;
C2H6(g) + 7/2O2(g) ----> 2CO2(g) + 3H2O(g)
Next we convert the given masses of reactants to moles of reactants.
For ethane; number of moles = mass/molar mass= 7.82g/ 30gmol-1= 0.261 moles
For oxygen; number of moles= 9.9 g/32gmol-1= 0.31 moles
Next we determine the limiting reactant, the limiting reactant yields the least amount of product.
For ethane;
From the reaction equation,
1 mole of ethane yields 3 moles of water
0.261 moles of Ethan yields 0.261 ×3 = 0.783 moles of water
For oxygen;
3.5 moles of oxygen yields 3 moles of water
0.31 moles of oxygen yields 0.31 × 3/3.5 = 0.266 moles of water
Hence oxygen is the limiting reactant.
Mass of water produced = 0.266 moles of water × 18gmol-1 = 4.79 g of water
