1.

3) Calculate the amount ofCO2 produced by the combustionof 24 grams of Methane.​

Answer»

Answer :

Mass of methane = 24g

We have to FIND the amount of CO₂ produced by the COMBUSTION of given amount of methane.

Balanced chemical reaction :

  • CH₄ + 2O₂ ➙ CO₂ + 2H₂O

Stoichiometry deals with the calculation of masses of the reactants and the products involved in a chemical reaction.

It is clear from the reaction that 1 MOLE (16g) of methane GIVES 1 mole (44G) of carbon dioxide at STP.

Hence, 24g of methane will give = (?)

  • W = 24 × 44/16
  • W = 66g

Therefore, 66g of carbon dioxide will be produced by the complete combustion of 24g of methane.

Cheers!
