  • Stoichiometry Calculation: Moles of C3H8 Required for Reaction with O2
    Here's how to solve this problem:

    1. Write the balanced chemical equation:

    C₃H₈ + 5O₂ → 3CO₂ + 4H₂O

    2. Determine the mole ratio:

    The balanced equation shows that 1 mole of C₃H₈ reacts with 5 moles of O₂.

    3. Use the mole ratio to calculate the moles of C₃H₈:

    * (0.567 mol O₂) * (1 mol C₃H₈ / 5 mol O₂) = 0.1134 mol C₃H₈

    Therefore, 0.1134 moles of C₃H₈ are needed to react with 0.567 mol O₂.
