Document Summary

Relating the numbers of moles of reactant and products. Problem: how many moles of co2 are produced in the combustion of 2. 72 mol of triethylene glycol, An excess of oxygen gas means that triethylene glycol is the limiting reactant. Balance the equation: 2 c6h14o4 + 15o2 mol co2 = [2. 72 mol c6h14o4 x (2 mol co2 / 2 mol c6h14o4)] = 16. 3 mol co2. Most chemical reactions take place in solution partly because mixing the reactants helps to achieve the close contact between atoms, ions, or molecules necessary for the reaction to occur. Solvent determines whether the solution exists as a solid, liquid, or a gas. However, for learning purposes, the aqueous (aq) solution will be used as a solvent. Solute is the material being dissolved by the solvent. Aqueous reactions can be grouped into three general categories: precipitation reactions, acid-base neutralization reactions and oxidation-reduction (red ox) reactions.
