C3H8 +O2 ->CO2 + H2O
a. Balance the equation
b. How many moles of oxygen are required to burn 2.5 moles of propane?
c. How many grams of oxygen are required to burn 2000g of propane?
d. At standard temperature and pressure, what volume of oxygen would be required to be required to burn 2000 g of propane? If air is 21 percent oxygen, what volume of air at STP would be required?
e. At STP, what volume of CO2 would be produced when 2000g of propane are burned?
