Using the equation, C5H12 + 8O2 Imported Asset 5CO2 + 6H2O, if 2 moles of pentane (C5H12) were supplied, and an unlimited amount of oxygen were available, how many moles of water would be produced? 6 moles 8 moles 12 moles 16 moles

Respuesta :

12 moles of water H₂O are produced from the combustion of pentane.

Explanation:

We have the following combustion of pentane (C₅H₁₂):

C₅H₁₂ + 8 O₂ → 5 CO₂ + 6 H₂O

Knowing the chemical reaction we devise the following reasoning:

if         1 moles of pentane C₅H₁₂ produces 6 moles of water H₂O

then    2 moles of pentane C₅H₁₂ produces X moles of water H₂O

X = (2 × 6) / 1 = 12 moles of water H₂O
