Consider the reaction below. If you start with 6.0 moles of, C3H8 (propane) and 6.0 moles of O2 _____ mole(s) of carbon dioxide can be produced. C3H8(g) + 5O2(g)  3CO2(g) + 4H2O(g) 	24 	3.6 	18 	6.0 	10

anonymous · Answer

Both reactants are equally the limiting reagents meaning they both will be consumed completely at the same time.
Step 1: Use mole ratio- by this take the number of moles of O2 and multiply that by the co-efficient- number of moles of CO2 (3) devided by the moles of oxygen itself (5).
