The molar mass of oxygen gas (O2) is 32.00 g/mol. The molar mass of C3H8 is 44.1 g/mol. What mass of O2, in grams, is required to completely react with 0.025 g C3H8?"Determine the mass of each of the following compounds, rounding molar masses of elements to the gram before adding up the total: C3H8 (propane)"

Respuesta :

The molar mass of oxygen gas (O2) is 32.00 g/mol.

The molar mass of C3H8 is 44.1 g/mol.

This kind of reaction is a combustion:

C3H8 + 5O2 → 3CO2 + 4H2O (In a combustion we obtain CO2 and H2O. Don't forget to balance this equation)

Procedure:

Let's use stoichiometry to solve this

44.1 g C3H8 --------- 5 x 32.00 g O2

0.025 g C3H8 --------- X

X = 0.091 g O2

Answer: mass of O2 required = 0.091 g
