how many grams of carbon dioxide will be produced by the complete combustion of 30 grams of ethane, C2H6

Answer 1

Write the balanced equation:

2C₂H₆ + 7O₂ ==> 4CO₂ + 6H₂O ... balanced equation

ethane.....oxygen....carbon dioxide..water

30 g C₂H₆ x 1 mol C₂H₆/30 g x 4 mol CO₂/2 mol C₂H₆ x 44 g CO₂/mol CO₂ = 88 g CO₂
