Isobutane `(C_(4)H_(10))` undergoes combustion in oxygen according to the following reaction:
`2C_(4)H_(10)(g)+13O_(2)(g) rarr 8CO_(2)(g)+10H_(2)O(e)`
When `10.00 L` of isobutane is burnt at `27^(@)C` and `1 bar` pressure, calculate the volume of `CO_(2)` produced at `120^(@)C` and `4.0 bar` pressure.

To solve the problem of calculating the volume of CO₂ produced from the combustion of isobutane (C₄H₁₀), we can follow these steps: ### Step 1: Determine the volume of CO₂ produced at initial conditions The balanced chemical equation for the combustion of isobutane is: \[ 2C_{4}H_{10}(g) + 13O_{2}(g) \rightarrow 8CO_{2}(g) + 10H_{2}O(l) \] From the equation, we can see that 2 volumes of isobutane produce 8 volumes of CO₂. Therefore, the ratio of isobutane to CO₂ is: \[ \frac{8 \text{ L CO₂}}{2 \text{ L C₄H₁₀}} = 4 \text{ L CO₂ per L C₄H₁₀} \] ...
