In a gas-processing plant, gas X changes into gas Y according to the equation
3X(g)→2Y(g)\mathrm{3X(g)\rightarrow2Y(g)}3X(g)→2Y(g)
A meter records that 30 dm3 of Y is collected when the reaction is complete. All gas volumes are measured at the same temperature and pressure.
What volume of X reacted?
45 dm345\,\mathrm{dm^3}45dm3
90 dm390\,\mathrm{dm^3}90dm3
15 dm315\,\mathrm{dm^3}15dm3
20 dm320\,\mathrm{dm^3}20dm3
