Question

2 _ Pb(SO )2 - LINO: –> Pb(NO3)4 + Li2SO4
li a student mixes 14 moles of C4H10O with 15 moles of O2: how many moles of Co2 can be
made?
​

Answer 1

Answer:

Moles of CO₂ produced = 10 mol

Explanation:

Given data:

Number of moles C₄H₁₀O =  14 mol

Number of moles of O₂ = 15 mol

Moles of CO₂ produced = ?

Solution:

Chemical equation:

C₄H₁₀O  +  6O₂  →     4CO₂ + 5H₂O

Now we will compare the moles of CO₂ with both reactants.

                      C₄H₁₀O           :             CO₂

                              1              :               4

                            14              ;          4×14 = 56 mol

                            O₂              :               CO₂

                              6               :                 4

                             15               :             4/6×15 = 10 mol

So oxygen will be limiting reactant and moles of CO₂  produce are 10.
