Propane burns to form carbon dioxide and water. The equation for the reaction is: C 3 H 8 (g)+5 O 2 (g) 3 CO 2 (g)+4 H 2 O(l)

Question

Propane burns to form carbon dioxide and water. The equation for the reaction is:

C 3 H 8 (g)+5 O 2 (g) 3 CO 2 (g)+4 H 2 O(l)

3.60d * m ^ 3 carbon dioxide is produced when a sample of propane is burned in 7.25d * m ^ 3 oxygen.

Calculate the volume of unreacted oxygen. Give your answer in cm^ 3

    Answer:

    Propane burns to form carbon dioxide and water. The equation for the reaction is:

    C3H8 (g)+5O2 (g) ->  3CO2 (g) + 4H2O(l)

    Explanation:

    From the balanced chemical equation, it is clear that:

    1mol. of propane reacts with 5 mol. of O2 and forms 3 mol. of CO2.

    In terms of volume, the above equation can be rewritten as:

    1.0L. of propane reacts with 5.0L O2 and forms 3.0L of CO2.

    Since,

    1dm^{3} =1.0L

    3.60dm^3 of CO2 is formed from how many dm^3 of O2?

    =>3.60dm^3 CO2 * \frac{5.0L O2}{3.0L CO2}\\=6.0dm^3 O2 \\=6.0L O2

    The volume of unreacted oxygen is:

    7.25dm^3 -6.0dm^3\\=1.25dm^3

    The volume of unreacted oxygen is 1.25L or 1250cm^3.

    Since,

    1dm^3=1000cm^3.
