How much volume of CO2 at STP is liberated by combustion of 100 cm3 of propane?

Answer»

Balanced equation of combustion reaction

\(CH_3CH_2CH_3(g) + 5O_2(g)\longrightarrow3CO_2(g)+ 4H_2O(l)\)

This equation reveals that 1mol propane produces 3 mol CO2.

In other words 1ml propane at STP will produce 3ml CO2. Hence 100ml propane will produce 300ml CO2 at STP
