How much carbon dioxide and nitrogen will be released during the complete combustion of 6 liters of methylamine.
Find the amount of methylamine substance.
n = V: Vn.
n = 6 L: 22.4 L / mol = 0.27 mol.
Let’s compose the reaction equation, find the quantitative ratios of substances.
4CH3NH2 + 9O2 = 4CO2 + 2N2 + 10H2O.
According to the reaction equation, 4 mol of CH3NH2 accounts for 4 mol of CO2. Substances are in quantitative ratios 1: 1.
The amount of substance will be the same.
n (CO2) = n (CH3NH2) = 0.27 mol.
Find the volume of CO2.
V = Vn n, where Vn is the molar volume of gas, equal to 22.4 l / mol, and n is the amount of substance.
V = 0.2 7 mol × 22.4 L / mol = 6.048 L.
For 4 mol of CH3NH2, there are 2 mol of N2. The substances are in quantitative ratios of 1: 2.
The amount of substance N2 is 2 times less than CH3NH2.
n (N2) = ½ n (CH3NH2) = 0.27: 2 = 0.135 mol.
V = 0.135 mol × 22.4 L / mol = 3.024 L.
Answer: 3.024 L; 6.048 l.
