Here is the equation 2 C 4 H 10 (g)+13 O 2 (g)→10 H 2 O(g)+8C O 2 (g) Calculate the mass of water produced when 1.20 g of butane reacts with excess oxygen. Calculate the mass of butane needed to produce 68.0 g of carbon dioxide.

Solutions

Expert Solution

1)

2 C4H10 + 13 O2 ------------------------> 10 H2O   + 8 CO2

116 g                                                         180 g

1.20 g                                                        ?

mass of water produced = 180 x 1.20 / 116

                                        = 1.86 g

mass of water produced = 1.86 g

2)

2 C4H10 + 13 O2 ------------------------> 10 H2O   + 8 CO2

116 g                                                                          352 g

?                                                                                68.0 g

mass of butane = 116 x 68 / 352

                           = 22.4 g

mass of butane = 22.4 g
