SC 4. First, write the balanced chemical formula.

 

C3H8(g) + 5 O2(g) → 3 CO2(g) + 4 H2O(g)

 

The ratio of oxygen to propane is:  5 molOxygen : 1 mol propane  or
5 mLOxygen : 1 mL propane if the gases are at the same temperature and pressure.
Therefore, 83 mLpropane ( 5 mLoxygen / 1 mLpropane)  = 415 mLoxygen

 

SC 5. First, write the balanced chemical formula.

 

2 C4H10(g) + 13 O2(g) → 8 CO2(g) + 10 H2O(g)

 

The ratio of water vapour to butane is:  10 molwater vapour : 2 mol butane  

Therefore, 2.4 moLbutane ( 10 moLwater vapour / 2 moLbutane)  = 12moLwater vapour

 

SC 6. Question 5 (a) on page 168 of your textbook.

4 NH3(g)  +  5 O2(g)  →  4 NO(g)  +  6 H2O(g)
V=100 L      V = ?          V= ?           V= ?

 

Voxygen = 100Lammonia  (5 Loxygen / 4 Lammonia)  = 125 Loxygen

Vnitrogen monoxide = 100Lammonia  (4 Lnitrogen monoxide / 4 Lammonia)  = 100 Lnitrogen monoxide

Vwater vapour = 100Lammonia  (6 Lwater vapour / 4 Lammonia)  = 150 Lwater vapour
