How many grams of 02 are needed to completely burn 26.2 g of c3h8

We need 95.0 grams of O2

Explanation:

Step 1 :Data given

Mass of C3H8 = 26.2 grams

Molar mass C3H8  = 44.1 g/mol

Step 2: The balanced equation

C3H8 + 5O2 → 3CO2 + 4H2O

Step 3: Calculate moles C3H8

Moles propane = mass / molar mass

Moles propane = 26.2 grams / 44.1 g/mol

Moles propane = 0.594 moles

Step 4: Calculate moles O2

For 1 mol propane we need 5 moles O2 to produce 3 moles CO2 and 4 moles H2O

For 0.594 moles propane we need 5*0.594 = 2.97 moles O2

Step 5: Calculate mass O2

Mass O2 = moles * molar mass

Mass O2 = 2.97 moles * 32.0 g/mol

Mass O2 = 95.0 grams

We need 95.0 grams of O2

acid rain does not usually kill trees directly. instead, it is more likely to weaken the trees by damaging their leaves, limiting the nutrients available to them, or poisoning them with toxic substances slowly released from the soil. the main atmospheric pollutants that affect trees are nitrates and sulphates.
