Using the balanced equation for the combustion of ethane: 2C₂H₆ + 7 O₂ $\rightarrow$ 4CO₂ + 6H₂O, how many moles of O₂ needed to produce 12 moles of H₂O?

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The balanced equation shows that 7 moles of O2 are needed to produce 6 moles of H2O. Therefore, to produce 12 moles of H2O, which is twice the amount, you would need twice the amount of O2, which is 14 moles.
