Find the amount of carbon dioxide produced by the combustion of 20g of methane.

Find the amount of carbon dioxide produced by the combustion of 20g of methane. Correct Answer 66g

The chemical balanced equation for combustion of methane is CH4(g) + 2O2(g) →CO2(g) + 2H2O(g). From the above equation, 1 mole of methane gives 1 mole of carbon dioxide. But 20g of methane = 1.25 moles, therefore it gives 1.25 moles of carbon dioxide = 44(1.5) = 66g.
