it is 10
OpenStudy (anonymous):
why?

1. Write a Balanced Equation
2. Convert to Moles
3. Multiply by a Mole Ratio
4. Convert back to grams or moles or molecules (whatever the question asks you for)

Correct. You have 2 moles of propyl alcohol and are burning it by reacting it with 9 moles of oxygen gas.
OpenStudy (anonymous):
I don't understand.
OpenStudy (doc.brown):
2C3H7OH + 9O2 is what you're starting with.
OpenStudy (anonymous):
okay then I convert to moles?
OpenStudy (doc.brown):
For every 2 C3H7OH you have you need 9 O2.
You can pick any number of molecules, like say, a dozen.
For every 2 dozen propyl alcohol you need 9 dozen oxygen.

oh okay, thanks.
OpenStudy (doc.brown):
You can use the word dozen or mole interchangeably.
Just remember, dozen means 12.
Mole means 602214129270000000000000.
