Answer:
89.6 L of CO₂
Explanation:
We'll begin by writing the balanced equation for the reaction. This is illustrated below:
2CH₃OH + 3O₂ —> 2CO₂ + 4H₂O
From the balanced equation above,
3 moles of O₂ reacted to produce 2 moles CO₂.
Next, we shall determine the number of mole CO₂ produced by the reaction of 6 moles of O₂. This can be obtained as follow:
From the balanced equation above,
3 moles of O₂ reacted to produce 2 moles CO₂.
Therefore, 6 moles of O₂ will react to produce = (6 × 2)/3 = 4 moles CO₂.
Thus, 4 moles CO₂ were obtained from the reaction.
Finally, we shall determine the volume occupied by 4 moles CO₂. This can be obtained as follow:
1 mole of CO₂ occupied 22.4 L.
Therefore, 4 moles CO₂ will occupy = 4 × 22.4 = 89.6 L
Thus, 89.6 L of CO₂ were obtained from the reaction.
