3O2 +C2H5OH=2CO2+3H2O. So you need 3 times as many moles of oxygen as ethanol. So there's a surplus of ethanol. We'll get 2 moles of CO2 for every 3 moles of O2. That is, 1.3x2/3=0.87 moles of CO2. At STP this will occupy 0.87x 22.5=19.58 litres.

First, arise with a balanced equation for the finished combustion of methanol. 2d, what do gas regulations enable you recognize approximately moles of a gas the place the temperature and stress are an analogous?
