Write a balanced equation for the combustion of liquid methyl alcohol (CH3OH).
5. From the balanced reactions representing complete and incomplete combustions of methane
gas, give the molar ratios of oxygen gas to methane gas
a) in a complete combustion
b) in an incomplete combustion
Note: See procedure for the balanced chemical reactions.
Combustion of hydrocarbons such as pentane (C,H12) produces carbon diaxide, a "greenhouse gas." Greenhouse gases in the Earth's atmosphere can trap the
Sun's heat, raising the average temperature of the Earth. For this reason there has been a great deal of international discussion about whether to regulate the
production of carbon diaxide.
1. Write a balanced chemical equation, including physical state symbols, for the
combustion of liquid pentane into gaseous carbon dioxide and gaseous water.
D-0
2. Suppose 0.500 kg of pentane are burned in air at a pressure of exactly 1 atm and
a temperature of 19.0 "C. Calculate the volume of carbon dioxide gas that is
produced. Round your answer to 3 wignihcant digits.
