What volume (in L) of carbon dioxide will be produced from the reaction of 37.4 L of oxygen?
Anna [14]

Answer:

21.4 L

Explanation:

Given data:

Volume of carbon dioxide produced = ?

Volume of oxygen  = 37.4 L

Solution:

Chemical equation:

2C₂H₆ + 7O₂  →  4CO₂ + 6H₂O

It is known that,

1 mole = 22.414 L

There are 7 moles of oxygen = 7×22.414 = 156.9 L

There are 4 moles of carbon dioxide = 4×22.414 = 89.66 L

Now we will compare:

                              O₂             :              CO₂    

                              156.9         :              89.66

                                37.4         :             89.66/156.9×37.4 = 21.4 L

So from 37.4 L of oxygen 21.4 L of carbon dioxide is produced.
