Calculate the mass of carbon dioxide and...

Calculate the mass of carbon dioxide and water formed on complete combustion of 24 g of methane gas. (Atomic masses, C = 12 u, H = 1 u, O = 16 u)

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The balanced chemical equation is,

Hence, 16 g of `CH_4` on complete combustion will produce 44 g of `CO_2`
` therefore 24g of CH_4 = 24/16 xx 44 = 66g of CO_2`
Similarly, 16 g of `CH_4` will produce 36 g of water.
24g of `CH_4 = 24/16 xx 36 = 54g` water.
