cyclohexanol is burned as a fuel, according to the following equation, how many moles of oxygen are needed to produce 13.7 mol of carbon dioxide? Type the numeric value only and round to tenths place. 2C6H12O + 17O2 → 12CO2 + 12H2O

The moles of oxygen that are needed to produce 13.7 moles of carbon dioxide is 21.17 moles of Oxygen

calculation

2 C₆H₁₂O + 17 O₂ → 12 CO₂ + 12 H₂O

The moles of O₂ is determined using the mole ratio

that is for given equation above O₂ : Co₂ is 17 : 12

therefore the moles of O ₂ = 13.7 moles x 17/12 = 21.17 moles
