Question
Oxyacetylene torches rely on a precise mixture of fuel
(C₂H₂(g)) to oxygen to optimize the welding process.
_C₂H₂(g) + _O₂(g) → _CO₂(g) + _H₂O(g)
Calculate the volume of O₂(g) required to react
completely with 12.7 L of acetylene. Assume both
substances are at SATP.
Hint: Balance the combustion reaction first.
Do not show your work in the space provided.
Record only your final answer with the correct number
of significant digits and the proper units.
