Question 3 (1 point)

Answer 1

Answer:

50 mol

Explanation:

Mass of methane = 800 g

Number of moles of CO₂ produced = ?

Solution:

Chemical equation:

CH₄ + 2O₂      →      CO₂ + 2H₂O

Number of moles of methane:

Number of moles = mass/molar mass

Number of moles = 800 g/ 16 g/mol

Number of moles = 50 mol

Now we will compare the moles of methane and carbon dioxide from balanced chemical equation.

                CH₄        :         CO₂

                   1           :          1

                 50          :        50
