Wine goes bad soon after opening because the ethanol dissolved in it reacts with oxygen gas to form water and aqueous acetic acid , the main ingredient in vinegar. Calculate the moles of oxygen needed to produce of acetic acid. Be sure your answer has a unit symbol, if necessary, and round it to significant digits.

0.500 moles of oxygen

Explanation:

Full question says: "Calculate the moles of oxygen needed to produce 0.500 moles of acetic acid.

The reaction of ethanol (C₂H₅OH) with oxygen (O₂) is:

C₂H₅OH + O₂ → CH₃COOH + H₂O

Where 1 mole of ethanol reacts per mole of oxygen to produce 1 mole of acetic acid (CH₃COOH) and 1 mole of water

Based on the chemical equation (1 mole of oxygen produce 1 mole of acetic acid; Ratio 1:1). Thus, if you want to produce 0.500 moles of acetic acid you will need:
