Butane, C4H10, reacts with oxygen, O2, to form water, H2O, and
carbon dioxide, CO2, as shown in the following chemical equation:
2C4H10(g)+13O2(g)→10H2O(g)+8CO2(g) The coefficients in this
equation represent mole ratios. Notice that the coefficient for
water (10) is five times that of butane (2). Thus, the number of
moles of water produced is five times the number of moles of butane
that react. Also, notice that the coefficient for butane (2) is
one-fourth the coefficient of carbon dioxide (8). Thus,...
