The correct Answer is:
To solve the problem of how much carbon dioxide is evolved when 5.0 L of butane is burned in excess oxygen at 67°C and 2 bar pressure, we can follow these steps: ### Step 1: Write the balanced chemical equation The balanced chemical equation for the combustion of butane is: \[ 2C_{4}H_{10} (g) + 13O_{2}(g) \rightarrow 8 CO_{2}(g) + 10H_{2}O(l) \] ### Step 2: Determine the volume ratio From the balanced equation, we see that 2 volumes of butane produce 8 volumes of carbon dioxide. Thus, the volume ratio of butane to carbon dioxide is: \[ \frac{8 \text{ L CO}_2}{2 \text{ L C}_4H_{10}} = 4 \] ### Step 3: Calculate the volume of carbon dioxide produced If 5.0 L of butane is burned, the volume of carbon dioxide produced can be calculated using the ratio: \[ \text{Volume of } CO_2 = 5.0 \, L \times \frac{8 \, L \, CO_2}{2 \, L \, C_4H_{10}} = 5.0 \, L \times 4 = 20.0 \, L \] ### Step 4: Adjust for the conditions of temperature and pressure To find the volume of carbon dioxide at the given conditions (67°C and 2 bar), we will use the ideal gas law and the concept of gas volume under different conditions. ### Step 5: Convert temperature to Kelvin Convert the temperature from Celsius to Kelvin: \[ T = 67 + 273 = 340 \, K \] ### Step 6: Use the ideal gas law to find the volume at standard conditions Using the ideal gas law, we can relate the volumes at different conditions: \[ \frac{P_1 V_1}{T_1} = \frac{P_2 V_2}{T_2} \] Where: - \( P_1 = 1.013 \, \text{bar} \) (standard pressure) - \( V_1 = 20.0 \, L \) (volume of \( CO_2 \) at standard conditions) - \( T_1 = 273 \, K \) (standard temperature) - \( P_2 = 2 \, \text{bar} \) (given pressure) - \( T_2 = 340 \, K \) (given temperature) - \( V_2 \) is the volume of \( CO_2 \) at the given conditions. ### Step 7: Rearranging the ideal gas law to solve for \( V_2 \) Rearranging gives: \[ V_2 = \frac{P_1 V_1 T_2}{P_2 T_1} \] ### Step 8: Plug in the values Substituting the values into the equation: \[ V_2 = \frac{(1.013 \, \text{bar}) (20.0 \, L) (340 \, K)}{(2 \, \text{bar}) (273 \, K)} \] ### Step 9: Calculate \( V_2 \) Calculating the above expression: \[ V_2 = \frac{1.013 \times 20.0 \times 340}{2 \times 273} \] \[ V_2 \approx \frac{6862.2}{546} \approx 12.58 \, L \] Thus, the volume of carbon dioxide evolved when 5.0 L of butane is burned in excess oxygen at 67°C and 2 bar pressure is approximately **12.58 L**.
