The combustion of ethane (C2H6)(C2H6) produces carbon dioxide and steam. 2C2H6(g)+7O2(g)⟶4CO2(g)+6H2O(g) 2C2H6(g)+7O2(g)⟶4CO2(g)+6H2O(g) How many moles of CO2CO2 are produced when 5.95 mol5.95 mol of ethane is burned in an excess of oxygen? moles of CO2:CO2:

Respuesta :

Answer:

11.9 moles of carbon-dioxide will produced.

Explanation:

Given moles of ethane = 5.95 mol

[tex]2C_2H_6(g)+7O_2(g)\rightarrow 4CO_2(g)+6H_2O(g)[/tex]

According to reaction 2 moles of ethane produces 4 moles of carbon-dioxide.

Then, 5.95 moles of ethane will produce:

[tex]\frac{4}{2}\times 5.95 mol=11.9 mol[/tex] of carbon-dioxide

11.9 moles of carbon-dioxide will produced.
