Chapter 11, Problem 11.67E

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The mass of water that would be produced by the complete combustion of $10.0\text{g}$ of methane is to be calculated.

Concept introduction:

The stoichiometry of a chemical species involved in a chemical reaction represents the number of chemical species involved in the chemical reaction. The stoichiometry of a chemical species helps in calculating the expected mass of reactant and product. The stoichiometry of a chemical species is also represented by number of moles. The number of moles of a substance is given as,

$n=\frac{m}{M}$

Where,

• $m$ represents the mass of the substance.

• $M$ represents the molar mass of the substance.
