    485.76 g of CO₂ can be made by this combustion

    Explanation:

    Combustion reaction:

    2 C₄H₁₀ (g) + 13 O₂ (g) → 8 CO₂ (g) + 10 H₂O (g)

    If we only have the amount of butane, we assume the oxygen is the excess reagent.

    Ratio is 2:8. Let's make a rule of three:

    2 moles of butane can produce 8 moles of dioxide

    Therefore, 2.76 moles of butane must produce (2.76. 8) / 2 = 11.04 moles of CO₂

    We convert the moles to mass → 11.04 mol. 44g / 1 mol = 485.76 g
