Question

Using the equation, C5H12 + 8O2 5CO2 + 6H2O, if an excess of pentane (C5H12) were supplied, but only 4 moles of oxygen were available, how many moles of water would be produced?

Answer 1

@IvantheBear Help again please?

Answer 2

It takes 8 moles of O2 to produce 6 moles of H2O. But if you have half that amount: 4 moles, you would only be able to produce half the amount of water - 3 moles of H2O

Answer 3

Thank you :)
