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.
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
