19. Consider the reaction C₃H₈(g) + 5O₂(g) → 3CO₂(g) + 4H₂O(l). If 0.1 mole of C₃H₈(g) was completely burnt, what volume of CO₂(g) would be produced at stp? [molar volume at stp = 22.4 dm³mol⁻¹]

  • A. 6.72 dm³Correct
  • B. 2.24 dm³
  • C. 0.30 dm³
  • D. 0.10 dm³

Explanation

0.1 mol C₃H₈ produces 0.3 mol CO₂ (1:3 ratio). Volume = 0.3 × 22.4 dm³ = 6.72 dm³.
