Answer to Question #136007 in General Chemistry for Mark

Question

C6H12O6→2C2H5OH+2 CO2

1. How many mol of ethanol are formed by the complete reaction of 0.098 mol of glucose?
2. How many mol of carbon dioxide are formed by the complete reaction of 1.4 mol of glucose?

Answer 1

C6H12O6→2C2H5OH+2 CO2

1. How many mol of ethanol are formed by the complete reaction of 0.098 mol of glucose ?

According to balanced reaction given 1 mol glucose produce 2 mol 

ethanol.Hence

mols of ethanol produced from 0.098 mol glucose = 2* 0.098 mol

= 0.196 mols

2. How many mol of carbon dioxide are formed by the complete reaction of 1.4 mol of glucose?

According to balanced reaction given 1 mol glucose produce 2 mol 

CO2 .Hence

mols of CO2 produced from 1.4 mol glucose = 2* 1.4 mol

= 2.8 mols

Answer

1 ) 0.196 mol

2) 2.8 mol
