For this compound: Give its molecular formula.
Give its empirical formula.
Give the name of this compound.
Give the general formula of the homologous series that contains this compound.
Balance the equation to show the complete combustion of this compound:
C3H8+‾O2→‾CO2+‾H2O \text{C}_3\text{H}_8 + \underline{\quad}\text{O}_2 \rightarrow \underline{\quad}\text{CO}_2 + \underline{\quad}\text{H}_2\text{O} C3H8+O2→CO2+H2OA 5.0 mol sample of propane was completely combusted. Deduce the amount, in moles, of oxygen (O2\text{O}_2O2) needed.
Calculate the volume, in dm3\text{dm}^3dm3, that this amount of oxygen would occupy at room temperature and pressure (rtp). Assume the molar volume of gas is 24 dm3/mol at rtp.
