Firstly the limiting reactant should be identified. Limiting reactant is the reactant that is in limited supply, the amount of product formed depends on the moles present of the limiting reactant.
the stoichiometry of x to y = 1:2
1 mole of x reacts with 2 moles of y
if x is the limiting reactant, there are 3 moles of x, then 6 moles of y should react, however there are only 4 moles of y. Therefore y is the limiting reactant and x is in excess.
4 moles of y reacts with 2 moles of x
since there are 3 moles of x initially and only 2 moles are used up, excess amount of x is 1 mol thats in excess.
The answers is ATP it took me a long time to find it but here you go. hope i helped
The final temperature = 36 °C

The balanced combustion reaction for C₆H₆
2C₆H₆(l)+15O₂(g)⇒ 12CO₂(g)+6H₂O(l) +6542 kJ
MW C₆H₆ : 78.11 g/mol
mol C₆H₆ :
Heat released for 2 mol C₆H₆ =6542 kJ, so for 1 mol
Heat transferred to water :
Q=m.c.ΔT
The wrong answers for sure are B and D, I assume the answer is C
