The balanced equation for the reaction is 2 C4H10 + 13 O2 -> 8 CO2 + 10 H2O. This shows that 13 moles of diatomic oxygen are required to burn 2 moles of butane. By proportionality, (4.8/2)13 or 31.2 moles of oxygen are required to burn 4.8 moles of butane. This corresponds to 31.2(32) or 1.0 X 103 grams of oxygen.
Ethanol requires oxygen to burn. During the combustion process, ethanol reacts with oxygen to produce carbon dioxide, water, and heat.
No, nitrogen does not burn in oxygen. Nitrogen is inert and does not react with oxygen under normal conditions.
No, sodium nitrate does not burn in an oxygen-free atmosphere because combustion requires oxygen to support the chemical reaction that produces heat and light. Without oxygen, there is no source for the combustion reaction to occur.
No, oxygen itself does not burn, but it supports combustion. This means that it helps other materials burn when it is present in sufficient amounts. Oxygen enables fires to ignite and sustain themselves by providing the necessary conditions for combustion. If there is sufficient fuel and an ignition source, oxygen can cause a fire to burn more fiercely.
No. Fire need fuel, oxygen, and heat to burn. Carbon dioxide is a product of most fires and can actually be used to put fires out.
The answer is 3,99 moles of carbon dioxide.
For every 1 mole of propane burned, 5 moles of oxygen are required. This means that 44 grams of propane requires 160 grams of oxygen to burn completely. Therefore, 100 grams of propane would require (100 grams propane * 160 grams oxygen / 44 grams propane) = 363.64 grams of oxygen to burn completely.
The answer is 3,99 moles of carbon dioxide.
To burn 1 mole of acetylene (C2H2), 3 moles of oxygen (O2) are required. The molar mass of acetylene is 26.04 g/mol and of oxygen is 32.00 g/mol. First, convert 13.50g acetylene to moles, calculate the moles of oxygen required, and then convert back to grams to find the mass of oxygen needed.
4 moles
no thats completely stupid. butane reacts with oxygen to produce carbon dioxide and water
A candle burning in air consumes about 4 grams of oxygen for every gram of wax that is burned. This ratio can vary slightly depending on the type of wax in the candle.
Approx. 2 g, depending on the percent of carbon in coke.
Butane
Anything which burns requires O2, so oxygen is required for fuel to burn. Also this is known as a combustion reaction and an exothermic reaction.
To determine the moles of CO2 formed when 58 g of butane burns in oxygen, first, calculate the moles of butane using its molar mass. Then, use the stoichiometry of the balanced chemical equation to find the moles of CO2 formed, as per the ratio of the coefficients in the balanced equation.
Ethanol requires oxygen to burn. During the combustion process, ethanol reacts with oxygen to produce carbon dioxide, water, and heat.
