A 1.900 g sample of C6H12 is burned in an excess of oxygen. What mass of C)2 and H20 should be obtained

OpenStudy (stephstar101):

5.961 grams of CO2 and 2.440 g of H2O

Comment on the question if you want the explaination (it's pretty long).

OpenStudy (anonymous):

that would be helpful for future questions

OpenStudy (anonymous):

thank you

OpenStudy (anonymous):

2.98g of CO2 produced and 2.44 of H2O

Alright, so start with the balanced formula: C6H12+9O2 -> 6CO2 + 6H2O. This will help with the molar ratios later. Begin with 1.900g C6H12, this is your limiting reactant and is used to determine the amounts of each product made. The following picture will help explain the steps to solve the CO2 amount, use it to find anything really. Try finding the H2O amount yourself! Hope this helped!
