Answer:
3520 g of CO₂
Explanation:
2C₂H₆ + 70₂ → 4CO₂ + 6H₂O
molar ratio of the above reaction is;
2 : 7 → 4 : 6
2 moles of C₂H₆ will form 6 moles of H₂O
Thus, 1 mole of C₂H₆ will form 3 moles of H₂O
mass of H₂O = 360 g
molecular weight of H₂O = 18 g/mol
molar mass = mass ÷ molecular weight = 360÷18 = 20 moles
Total number of moles of H₂O formed = 6 * 20 moles = 120 moles
Number of moles of C₂H₆ reacted = 120 moles ÷ 3 = 40 moles
molar ratio of C₂H₆ to CO₂ = 1 : 2
Thus, number of moles of CO₂ formed = 2 * 40 moles = 80 moles
molecular weight of CO₂ = 44 g/mol
mass of CO₂ formed = number of moles x molecular weight = 80 * 44 = 3520 g
