Basic Stoichiometry:
Start with a balanced chemical equation
Write down given number, convert to moles, use mole to mole ratio from equation,
convert to requested unit.
If 145grams of C2H6 gas are completely combusted in an excess of oxygen gas, how many
liters of carbon dioxide (CO2) will be produced?
% Yield Problems:
1. Oxygen is produced by the decomposition of hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) into water and
oxygen gas (O2).
