5 mol CH4 x (2 mol O2/1 mol CH4) = 10 mol O2

Explanation:

Start with a balanced equation.

CH4 + 2O2 → CO2 + 2H2O

You can see from the balanced equation that one mole of CH4 reacts completely with two moles of O2. So five moles of CH4 would require ten moles of O2. However, you can also show this with stoichiometry.

Multiply 5 mol CH4 by the mol ratio between O2 and CH4 in the balanced equation so that mol CH4 cancels, leaving mol O2.

the tides are influenced by both the moon and the sun, it's easy to see that when the sun lines up with the moon and the earth, as during a new moon or full moon, the tidal effect is increased. these are known as spring tides, named not for the season, but for the fact that the water "springs" higher than normal. on the other hand, if the sun and the moon are 90 degrees apart in relation to an observer on earth as during the first quarter moon or third quarter moon, then high tides are not as high as they normally would be. this is because despite its greater distance, the sun's mass allows it to exert enough gravitational force on the oceans that it can negate some of the effects of the moon's pull. this phenomenon of lower high tides is called a neap tide. if you need more information on this topic visit moonconnection.com.
