Given:
Number of moles of butane = 6
To determine:
Moles of carbon dioxide produced
Explanation:
The chemical reaction involving combustion of butane is:
2C4H10 + 13O2 → 10H2O + 8CO2
Based on the reaction stoichiometry:
2 moles of butane produces 8 moles of CO2
Therefore, 6 moles of butane would yield:
6 moles C4H10 * 8 moles CO2/2 moles butane = 24 moles of CO2
Ans: If 6 mole of butane burns 24 moles of CO2 will be produced.
