Answer:
The ancient Greeks believed that fire was one the four basic elements that composed all things in the universe. In the mythology of virtually every culture, fire is a sacred substance that gives life or power. Fire is not, in fact, a substance. When you gaze at the leaping flames of a campfire, you’re observing not an object, but a process – a chemical reaction. It’s the same chemical reaction that occurs when a cut apple left on the counter turns brown, when silver tarnishes or when an iron nail rusts.
That process is oxidation: combining oxygen with another substance. The defining difference between a fire and your half-eaten apple is speed: fire is an oxidation process that happens very fast, so that light, heat and sound are released — often with enough force and majesty to justify the ancients’ reverence.The sudden release of energy causes temperatures to rise, sometimes by thousands of degrees. And it also results in smoke, the toxic waste of fire’s leftovers.
The fire triangle and the fire tetrahedron
Fire TetrahedronThe fire triangle identifies the three needed components of fire:
fuel (something that will burn)
heat (enough to make the fuel burn)
and air (oxygen)

Alfred Wegener came up with the idea
If 14 grams of hydrogen reacted with 24.7 grams of oxygen 27.7875 grams of water will be formed.
Explanation:
2H2+O2----------->2H2O.
- From the above equation, we can say that 4g of Hydrogen will react with 32 g of oxygen.
- In this question, Hydrogen is in excess amount.
- 32 g of Oxygen will react with = 4 g of H2.
- Therefore 24.7g of Oxygen will react with =24.7x4/32= 3.0875 g H2.
- The remaining 10.9125g of H2 will be left unreacted.
- Therefore the amount of water formed=(24.7+3.0875)=27.7875 g
The balanced equation for the above reaction is as follows
C₆H₁₂O₆(s) + 6O₂(g) --> 6H₂O(g) + 6CO₂<span>(g)
the limiting reactant in the equation is glucose as the whole amount of glucose is used up in the reaction.
the amount of </span>C₆H₁₂O₆ used up - 13.2 g
the number of moles reacted - 13.2 g/ 180 g/mol = 0.073 mol
stoichiometry of glucose to CO₂ - 1:6
then number of CO₂ moles are - 0.073 mol x 6 = 0.44 mol
As mentioned this reaction takes place at standard temperature and pressure conditions,
At STP 1 mol of any gas occupies 22.4 L
Therefore 0.44 mol of CO₂ occupies 22.4 L/mol x 0.44 mol = 9.8 rounded off - 10.0 L
Answer is B) 10.0 L CO₂
