Answer to Question #145364 in General Chemistry for ken

Question

C6H12O6 = 2C2H5OH + 2CO2

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

Answer 1

Using a mole-mole relationship

From the reaction,

1 mole of glucose reacts to form 2moles of CO2

Then the amount of moles of CO2 that will be formed from the reaction of 1.4moles of glucose=1.4×2/1

=2.8moles.
