Chapter 12.9, Problem 12.13P

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

Volume of oxygen that would react with $15.0{\text{ L C}}_{\text{3}}{\text{H}}_8$ to form carbon dioxide and water has to be determined. Also, volume of carbon dioxide and water vapor formed in reaction has to be determined.

Concept Introduction:

Avogadro’s law represents direct relation between volume occupied by gas and mole of gas at constant pressure and temperature.

Mathematical relation for Avogadro’s law is as follows:

  $V\propto n$

Here, $n$ is mole of gas and $V$ is volume.
