How many moles of oxygen are required to react with methanol in order to produce 13 moles of formaldehyde?

6.5 moles of Oxygen are required

Explanation:

Based on the reaction:

CH3OH + 1/2 O2 → CH2O + H2O

1 mole of methanol reacts with 1/2 moles O2 to produce 1 mole of formaldehyde and 1 mole of water.

Thus, to produe 13 moles of formaldehyde, CH2O, are needed:

13 moles CH2O * (1/2mol O2 / 1mol CH2O) =

the answer is yes

it has kinetic energy

reason

an object has kinetic energy when you stop the force carrying it, the object will stay in motion.

hope this contact me for more questions if you'd like: )
