  • Stoichiometry Calculation: Moles of Propene (C3H6) from CO2 Production
    Here's how to solve this problem:

    1. Balanced Chemical Equation:

    First, we need the balanced chemical equation for the combustion of C3H6 (propene):

    2 C3H6 + 9 O2 → 6 CO2 + 6 H2O

    2. Mole Ratio:

    The balanced equation tells us that 2 moles of C3H6 react to produce 6 moles of CO2. This gives us a mole ratio of 2:6.

    3. Calculate Moles of C3H6:

    We can use this mole ratio to find the moles of C3H6 consumed:

    * (4.11 mol CO2) * (2 mol C3H6 / 6 mol CO2) = 1.37 mol C3H6

    Therefore, 1.37 moles of C3H6 will be consumed when 4.11 moles of CO2 are produced.
