The alcohol in "gasoholburns according to the following equation: C 2 H 6 O+3O 2=2 CO 2 +3H 2 O . In a test, 9.56 moles of water is collected from this reaction How many moles of CO 2 also formed ?

Answer 1

C₂H₆O + 3O₂ = 2CO₂ + 3H₂O

In this reaction, 2 moles of CO₂ are produced for every 3 moles of H₂O. So, 9.56 moles of water * 2/3 = 6.37 moles of CO₂.
