A sample of liquid heptane (left(mathrm{C}_{7} mathrm{H}_{16}ight)) weighing (11.50 mathrm{~g}) is reacted with (1.300 mathrm{~mol}) of oxygen

Question:

A sample of liquid heptane \(\left(\mathrm{C}_{7} \mathrm{H}_{16}ight)\) weighing \(11.50 \mathrm{~g}\) is reacted with \(1.300 \mathrm{~mol}\) of oxygen gas. The heptane is burned completely (heptane reacts with oxygen to form both carbon monoxide and water and carbon dioxide and water). After the reaction is complete, the amount of gas present is \(1.050 \mathrm{~mol}\) (assume that all of the water formed is liquid).

a. How many moles of \(\mathrm{CO}\) are produced?

b. How many moles of \(\mathrm{CO}_{2}\) are produced?

c. How many moles of \(\mathrm{O}_{2}\) are left over?
