Number of moles of O₂ needed to completely oxidize 1 mole of C₂H₅OH to CO₂ and H₂O:
A1
B2
C3 (C₂H₅OH + 3 O₂ → 2 CO₂ + 3 H₂O)
D6
Answer & Solution
Correct answer: C. 3 (C₂H₅OH + 3 O₂ → 2 CO₂ + 3 H₂O)
Balance: C₂H₅OH + 3 O₂ → 2 CO₂ + 3 H₂O. Carbon balance: 2 each side. Hydrogen: 6 each side. Oxygen: 1 + 6 = 4 + 3 = 7 ✓. Needs 3 O₂.
