The following is produced when propane (C₃H₈) is combusted completely : H₂O
<h3>Further explanation </h3>Complete combustion of Hydrocarbons with Oxygen will be obtained by CO₂ and H₂O compounds.
If O₂ is insufficient there will be incomplete combustion produced by CO and H and O
Hydrocarbon combustion reactions (especially alkanes)
For combustion of propane C₃H₈ (n = 3) ⇒ completely(excess O₂) :
C₃H₈+5O₂⇒3CO₂+4H₂O
The products of combustion : CO₂ and H₂O
The new volume at standard temperature and pressure is 5.08 L.
Explanation:
As per the kinetic theory of gases, the volume occupied by gas molecules will be inversely proportional to the pressure of the gas molecules. This is termed as Boyle's law.
So, pressure∝
Thus, if two pressure and two volumes are given then,
Now, we known the values of P₁ = 8 atm, V₁ = 635 mL, P₂ = 1 atm and V₂ we have to determine. We are considering P₂ = 1 atm, because we have to determine V₂ at standard temperature and pressure. And standard pressure is 1 atm.
Thus, the new volume at standard temperature and pressure is 5.08 L.
