Answer:
If reaction is taking place at room temperature and pressure(rtp)
= 360 litres of O₂ at rtp
If reaction is taking place at standard temperature and pressure(stp):
= 336 litres of O₂ at stp
Explanation:
2C₂H₆ + 70₂ → 4CO₂ + 6H₂O
1 mole of C₂H₆ = (12 × 2) + (1 × 6) = 24 + 6 = 30g
2 moles of C₂H₆ = 30 × 2 = 60g
From the equation:
1 mole of 0₂ reacts with 2 moles of C₂H₆
1 mole of 0₂ reacts with 60g of C₂H₆
? moles of 0₂ react with 90g of C₂H₆
[tex]\frac{90}{60}[/tex]= 1.5 moles of O₂
Considering condition of reaction taking place whether room temperature and pressure(rtp) or standard temperature and pressure(stp)
If room temperature and pressure(rtp):
1 mole of 0₂ occupies 24 liters/24000 cm³/ 24 dm³ of O₂
1.5 moles of O₂ occupies (24 × 1.5) litres of O₂
= 360 litres of O₂ at rtp
If standard temperature and pressure(stp):
1 mole of 0₂ occupies 22.4 liters/22400 cm³/ 22.4 dm³ of O₂
1.5 moles of O₂ occupies (22,4 × 1.5) litres of O₂
= 336 litres of O₂ at stp
