Taking into account the reaction stoichiometry and the definition of STP, 5.4 L of carbon dioxide is produced.
Reaction stoichiometry
In first place, the balanced reaction is:
C₃H₈ + 5 O₂ → 3 CO₂ + 4 H₂O
By reaction stoichiometry (that is, the relationship between the amount of reagents and products in a chemical reaction), the following amounts of moles of each compound participate in the reaction:
- C₃H₈: 1 mole
- O₂: 5 moles
- CO₂: 3 moles
- H₂O: 4 moles
Moles of CO₂ formed
The following rule of three can be applied: if by reaction stoichiometry 1 mole of C₃H₈ form 3 moles of CO₂, 0.080 moles of C₃H₈ form how many moles of CO₂?
[tex]amount of moles of CO_{2} =\frac{0.080 moles of C_{3} H_{8}x3 moles of CO_{2} }{1 mole of C_{3} H_{8} }[/tex]
amount of moles of CO₂= 0.24 moles
Definition of STP condition
The STP conditions refer to the standard temperature and pressure. Pressure values at 1 atmosphere and temperature at 0 ° C are used and are reference values for gases. And in these conditions 1 mole of any gas occupies an approximate volume of 22.4 liters.
Volume of CO₂ produced
You can apply the following rule of three: If by definition of STP 1 mole of CO₂ occupies 22.4 L, 0.24 moles of CO₂ how much volume does it occupy?
[tex]volume of CO_{2} =\frac{0.24 molesx22.4 L}{1 mole}[/tex]
volume of CO₂= 5.376 L ≅ 5.4 L
Finally, 5.4 L of carbon dioxide is produced.
