Balance the equation
__ C8H10(l) + __ O2(g) --> ___ CO2(g) + ___ H2O(g)
A) 3275 grams ( 1 gallon ) of xylene ( C8H10(l)) are chemically combined with oxygen (O2(g)) in this chemical reaction. Calculate the number of moles present in the 3275 grams of xylene (C8H10(l)).
B) If the number of moles C8H10 calculated in (A) were burned in this combustion reaction, how many moles of oxygen (O2(g)) would be required to react with the xylene?
C) If the number of moles C8H10 calculated in (A) were burned in this combustion reaction, how many moles and how many grams of carbon dioxide would be produced in the reaction?
D) If the number of moles of C8H10 calculated in (A) were burned in this combustion reaction, how many moles and how many grams of water vapor ( H2O(g)) would be produced in this reaction?
E) Use the number of moles of carbon dioxide, calculated in part (C), and the Ideal gas law to calculate the volume of carbon dioxide gas produced in this reaction when the carbon dioxide gas is at temperature of 1245.0 degree Celsius and a pressure of 745 mmHg.
