Mass of methane required to produce 22 g of CO after complete combustion is g. (Given Molar mass in g mol -1 , C = 12 . 0 , H = 1 . 0 , O = 16 . 0 )
Correct answer
0
Step-by-step solution
The molecular mass of methane is 16 g / mol . The reaction is as follows, CH 4 + 2 O 2 → CO 2 + 2 H 2 O Moles of CO 2 = mass molar mass = 22 44 = 0 . 5 So, required moles of CH 4 = 0 . 5 Mass of CH 4 = 0 . 5 × 16 = 8 gm
