Asked by Gabriel A.

What mass of O2 would be needed to burn 11g of the propane gas?
Answered by Damon
C3H8 + 5O2 ---> 3CO2 + 4H2O

5 mols O2 for every mol of C3H8

a mol of O2 is 2*16 = 32 grams
a mol of C3H8 is 3*12+8 = 44 grams
so
11 grams of propane is 1/4 mol
so we need 5/4 mols of O2
(5/4)(32)
