Question 10

When ethane, C2H6\text{C}_2\text{H}_6C2​H6​, is burned with plenty of oxygen, this reaction takes place.

2C2H6+7O2→4CO2+6H2O2\text{C}_2\text{H}_6 + 7\text{O}_2 \rightarrow 4\text{CO}_2 + 6\text{H}_2\text{O}2C2​H6​+7O2​→4CO2​+6H2​O

A sample of ethane burned completely and used up 105 cm3 of oxygen. Every gas volume was measured at the same temperature and pressure.

a.

Calculate the starting volume of ethane in the sample.

[2]
b.

Calculate how much carbon dioxide, in cm3\text{cm}^3cm3, the combustion makes.
