Amount of oxygen required for combustion...

Amount of oxygen required for combustion of `1 kg` of a mixture of butane and isobutane is:

A

`1.8 kg`

B

`2.7 kg`

C

`4.5 kg`

D

`3.58 kg`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
D

Butane and isobutane have same molecular formula `C_(4)H_(10)`
`C_(4)H_(10)+(13)/(2)O_(2)rarr 4CO_(2)+5H_(2)O`
`:' 58 g C_(4)H_(10)` requires `O_(2)=(13)/(2)xx32 g` ,brgt `:. 100 g C_(4)H_(10)` requires `O_(2)=(13xx32xx1000)/(2xx58)`
`=3586.2g or 3.586 kg`
