Question

For the balanced equation shown below, how many moles of CO2 will react with 0.708 moles of H2O.

Answer 1

Answer:

0.5 moles of CO2 will react with 0.708 moles of H2O.

Explanation:

$\sf balanced \ equation = 3CO2 + 4H2O \rightarrow C3H8 + 5O2$

• 0.708 moles of H2O

using molar ratio:

4H2O : 3CO2

4 : 3

so H2O moles:

$\sf\dfrac{0.708}{4} *3$

$\sf 0.531$ moles of CO2
