Give the theoretical yield,in grams,of CO₂from the reaction of 4.000 moles of C₈H₁₈ with 4.000 moles of O₂.
2 C₈H₁₈ + 25 O₂ → 16 CO₂ + 18 H₂O

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The reaction is limited by O₂, as 25 moles of O₂ are needed for 2 moles of C₈H₁₈. With 4 moles of O₂, the reaction produces (4/25) * 16 moles of CO₂, which is 2.56 moles. The molar mass of CO₂ is 44.01 g/mol, so the theoretical yield is 2.56 * 44.01 = 112.7 g.
