Given:
moles of acetylene = 9.60 mol
We want to know the moles of CO2 that will be produced from C2H2.
Using the following balanced equation:
[tex]2C_2H_2+5O_2\rightarrow4CO_2+2H_2O\text{ }[/tex]We will use the stoichiometry to solve the problem.
The molar ratio between C2H2 and CO2 is 2:4
Therefore the number of moles of CO2 = 9.60 mol x (4/2) = 19.2 mol
The number of moles of CO2 = 19.2 mol
