The balanced chemical equation for the combustion of hexane is: 2c6h14(l) 19o2(g) 12co2(g) 14h2o(g) hexane is a low-boiling point component of gasoline. answer the question in part 1 through part 3, if the rate of reaction of c6h14 is 1.95 mol l-1s-1. the rate of reaction of c6h14 is the rate of disappearance of c6h14. what was the rate of formation of co2?

The rate of formation of CO₂ is 11,7 M/s

Explanation:

The rate in a chemical reaction is defined as the change in concentration over the change in time

For the reaction:

2C₆H₁₄(l) + 19O₂(g) → 12CO₂(g) + 14H₂O(g)

The rate of dissapearance of C₆H₁₄ is 1,95 M/s

As 2 moles of C₆H₁₄ produce 12 moles of CO₂, the rate of formation of CO₂ will be 12/2 times faster than rate of disappearance, thus, rate of  formation of CO₂ is:

1,95 M/s C₆H₁₄× = 11,7 M/s

I hope it helps!
