Consider the reaction for the combustion of benzene: 2 C6H6(g) 15 O2(g) ---> 12 CO2(g) 6 H2O(l) What mass of H2O is produced when 25.0 g of benzene reacts with excess O2(g) (i. e., all benzene is consumed)

Mass of water produced is 17.3 grams

Explanation:

To calculate the number of moles, we use the equation:

     .....(1)

For benzene:

Given mass of benzene = 25.0 g

Molar mass of benzene= 78 g/mol

Putting values in equation 1, we get:

The chemical equation for the reaction follows:

As, oxygen is an excess reagent. Thus benzene is considered as a limiting reagent because it limits the formation of product.

By Stoichiometry of the reaction:

2 moles of benzene produces 6 moles of water

So, 0.32 moles of benzene will produce = of water

Now, calculating the mass of water from equation 1, we get:

Molar mass of water= 18 g/mol

Moles of water = 0.96moles

Putting values in equation 1, we get:

Thus mass of water produced is 17.3 grams

warm front forms when a moist, warm air mass slides up and over a cold air mass. as the warm air mass rises, it condenses into a broad area of clouds. a warm front brings gentle rain or light snow, followed by warmer, milder weather.
