Be careful on this one! Mass is always conserved, based on the law of conservation of mass. Since their was a change in state, we went from a solid to a gas, so, the weight would be lighter, not the mass.
Same amount of mass.
Answer:
Covalent is the type of bond.
Answer:
10.56 g
Explanation:
C4H10(g) + 13/2O2 (g) -------> 4CO2(g) + 5H2O(l)
Number of moles of butane = 3.49g/ 58 g/mol = 0.06 moles
1 mole butane yields 4 moles of CO2
0.06 moles of butane = 0.06 × 4/1 = 0.24 moles of CO2
Number of moles of oxygen = 17.1g/32g/mol = 0.53 moles of oxygen
6.5 moles of oxygen yields 4 moles of CO2
0.53 moles of oxygen yields 0.53 × 4/6.5 =0.33 moles of CO2
Butane is the limiting reactant
Theoretical yield of CO2 = 0.24 moles × 44g/mol = 10.56 g
