Answer to Question #162368 in Chemistry for Ava Brooke

Question

Using the following chemical equation how many grams of water can be produced when 109 L of carbon dioxide are produced?

C₄H₁₀ + 5O₂ -> 3CO₂ + 4H₂O

Answer 1

C₄H₁₀ + 5O₂ -> 3CO₂ + 4H₂O

According to the equation, the mass of water equals:

m(H₂O) = V(CO₂) × 4 × Mr(H₂O) / (3 × V_mol) = 109 L × 4 × 18 g/mol / (3 × 22.4 L) = 116.8 g

Answer: 116.8 g
