a. 0.137

b. 0.0274

c. 1.5892 g

d. 0.1781

e. 5.6992 g

<h3>Further explanation</h3>

Given

Reaction

2 C4H10 + 13O2 -------> 8CO2 + 10H2O

2.46 g of water

Required

moles and mass

Solution

a. moles of water :

2.46 g : 18 g/mol = 0.137

b. moles of butane :

= 2/10 x mol water

= 2/10 x 0.137

= 0.0274

c. mass of butane :

= 0.0274 x 58 g/mol

= 1.5892 g

d. moles of oxygen :

= 13/2 x mol butane

= 13/2 x 0.0274

= 0.1781

e. mass of oxygen :

= 0.1781 x 32 g/mol

= 5.6992 g

How many liters of H2O gas are produced when
anyanavicka [17]
1 mole C3H8 produces 4 moles H2O. So, first we convert 32 grams of propane to moles and then find moles of H2O. Then convert moles of H2O to grams of H2O
Moles of H2O produced = 32 g C3H8 x 1 mole/44 g x 4 moles H2O/mole C3H8 = 2.909 moles H2O
Grams H2O produced = 2.909 moles H2O x 18 g/mole = 52.36 g = 52 g H2O
