The combustion reaction of propane is described by the reaction.
C3H8 +502 + 4H₂O + 3C0₂.
How many moles of O₂ are required to generate 3 moles of CO₂?

Respuesta :

Answer:

[tex]\huge\boxed{\sf 5\ moles\ of\ oxygen}[/tex]

Explanation:

Chemical Reaction:

[tex]C_3H_8+5O_2 \longrightarrow 4H_2O+3CO_2[/tex]

From the reaction, we can say that,

  • 1 mole of propane and 5 moles of oxygen produce 4 moles of water and 3 moles of carbon dioxide.

So, to generate 3 mole of carbon dioxide, 5 moles of oxygen are required. (as shown in the chemical reaction!)
