How many moles of carbon dioxide are produced when 5.12 moles of glucose undergoes a combustion reaction?

Sagot :

Answer: 30.72 moles of [tex]CO_2[/tex] will be produced from 5.12 moles of glucose.

Explanation:

The balanced chemical equation for combustion of glucose is:

[tex]C_6H_{12}O_6+6O_2\rightarrow 6CO_2+6H_2O[/tex]  

According to stoichiometry :

1 moles of glucose produce =  6 moles of [tex]CO_2[/tex]

Thus 5.12 moles of glucose produce =[tex]\frac{6}{1}\times 5.12=30.72moles[/tex]  of [tex]CO_2[/tex]

Thus 30.72 moles of [tex]CO_2[/tex] will be produced from 5.12 moles of glucose.
