Based of the chemical reaction below, if you have 3.56x10^23 molecules of C3H8, how many liters of CO2 gas will be produced at STP? C3H8+5)2-->3CO2+4H2O

39.65L

Explanation:

First, let us calculate the number of mole present in 3.56x10^23 molecules of C3H8.

1 mole of any substance contains 6.02x10^23 molecules as discovered from Avogadro's hypothesis. This means that 1mole of C3H8 contains 6.02x10^23 molecules.

Now, if 1mole of C3H8 contains 6.02x10^23 molecules, then Xmol of C3H8 will contain 3.56x10^23 molecules i.e

Xmol of C3H8 = 3.56x10^23/6.02x10^23 = 0.59mole

The equation for the reaction is given below:

C3H8 + 5O2 —> 3CO2 + 4H2O

From the equation above,

1 mole of C3H8 produced 3moles of CO2.

Therefore, 0.59mole of C3H8 will produce = 0.59 x 3 = 1.77mole of CO2.

Now let us calculate the volume occupied by 1.77mole of CO2. This is illustrated below:

1 mole of any gas occupy 22.4L at stp.

Therefore, 1.77mole of CO2 will occupy = 1.77 x 22.4 = 39.65L

Therefore, 39.65L of CO2 are produced.

girl imma just put my comment here because i need a couple point okurrttt

the enthalpy of formation of water is given as -285.8kj/mol, which states that the enthalpy of formation is negative.

negative enthalpy of formation indicates that the heat is released during the reaction process. the heat is released from reaction to the surroundings the enthalpy is expressed with a negative sign with the energy given out in the reaction process.

the formation of water takes place by giving out heat which is -285.8 kj/mol.
