What amount of carbon dioxide (in moles) is produced from the reaction of 2.24 moles of ethanol with excess oxygen?

Answer : The amount of carbon dioxide produced is, 197.12 grams.

Explanation : Given,

Moles of ethanol = 2.24 mole

Molar mass of carbon dioxide = 44 g/mole

The balanced chemical reaction will be,

First we have to calculate the moles carbon dioxide.

From the balanced chemical reaction, we conclude that

As, 1 mole of ethanol react to give 2 moles of carbon dioxide

So, 2.24 mole of ethanol react to give moles of carbon dioxide

Now we have to calculate the mass of carbon dioxide.

Therefore, the amount of carbon dioxide produced is 197.12 grams.

- "the choice that is not an indicator of a chemical change is "state of matter changes". more common than not, chemical reactions produce energy in the form of light or heat. along with energy, they also produce a new substance called the product that could be in any state of matter (solid, gas, or liquid)."
