The combustion of ethane (C2H6) produces carbon dioxide and steam. 2C2H6(g) + 7O2(g) ⟶ 4CO2(g) + 6H2O(g) How many moles of CO2 are produced when 5.90 mol of ethane is burned in an excess of oxygen?
Added by Brenda H.
Step 1
90 mol of ethane is burned. Given: 2C2H6(g) + 7O2(g) → 4CO2(g) + 6H2O(g) Moles of C2H6 = 5.90 mol Moles of CO2 = 4/2 * 5.90 mol = 11.80 mol Show more…

a. If 4.50 mol of ethane, $\mathrm{C}_{2} \mathrm{H}_{6},$ undergo combustion according to the unbalanced equation $\mathrm{C}_{2} \mathrm{H}_{6}+\mathrm{O}_{2} \longrightarrow \mathrm{CO}_{2}+\mathrm{H}_{2} \mathrm{O}$ , how many moles of oxygen are required? b. How many moles of each product are formed?
