If you burn 150. g of C2H6O, how many grams of CO2 and H2O can be produced?

Express your answers using three significant figures separated by a comma.

We will produce 2.87 * 10³ grams CO2 and 1.76 *10³ grams H2O

Explanation:

Step 1: Data given

Mass of C2H6O = 150.0 grams

Molar mass of C2H6O = 46.07 g/mol

Step 2: The balanced equation

C2H6O + 3O2 → 2CO2 + 3H2O

Step 3: Calculate moles C2H6O

Moles C2H6O = mass C2H6O / molar mass C2H6O

Moles C2H6O = 150.0 grams / 46.07 g/mol

Moles C2H6O = 3.256 moles

Step 4: Calculate moles products

For 1 mol C2H6O we need 3 moles O2 to produce 2 moles CO2 and 3 moles H2O

For 3.256 moles C2H6O we'll have 2*3.256 = 6.512 moles CO2

For 3.256 moles C2H6O we'll have 3 * 3.256 = 9.768 moles H2O

Step 5: Calculate mass of products

Mass CO2 = 6.512 moles * 44.01 g/mol = 286.6 grams = 2.87 * 10³ grams

Mass H2O = 9.768 moles * 18.02 g/mol = 176.0 grams = 1.76 *10³ grams

We will produce 2.87 * 10³ grams CO2 and 1.76 *10³ grams H2O

in 2001, dell computer became the world’s largest personal computer vendor, continuing to

gain market share and post profits in an industry struggling with slumping sales and billions of

dollars in losses. dell sells 90% of its pcs directly to the final customer, largely bypassing the

reseller channel that accounts for most of the world’s pc sales. this direct customer relationship

is the key to dell’s business model, and provides distinct advantages over the indirect sales

model. dell’s direct relationship with the customer allows it to tailor its offerings to customer

needs, offer add-on products and services, and use the internet to offer a variety of customer

services. in addition, dell’s pcs are built to customers’ specifications upon receipt of an order,

giving dell additional advantages over indirect pc vendors who must try to forecast demand and

ship products based on those forecasts. dell’s direct sales and build-to-order model has achieved

superior performance in the pc industry in terms of inventory turnover, reduced overhead, cash

conversion, and return on investment (kraemer, et al., 2000).
