How many liters of carbon dioxide will be produced when 89.5 L of ethane are burned? (One mole of any gas occupies 22.4 L under certain conditions of temperature and pressure. Assume those conditions for this question.)

Answer:

179 L of CO2

Explanation:

Given the equation of the reaction;

C2H6(g) + 7/2 O2(g) -------> 2CO2(g) + 3H2O(g)

Now 1 mole of ethane yields 2 moles of CO2 from the balanced reaction equation

1 mole of a gas occupies 22.4 L volume so,

22.4 L of ethane yields 44.8 L of CO2

89.5 L of ethane yields 89.5 * 44.8/22.4 = 179 L of CO2
