    What is the weight of oxygen that is required the complete combustion of 2.8 kg of ethylene?

    A)  9.6 kg                                  

    B)  96.0 kg

    C)  6.4 kg                  

    D)         2.8 kg

    Correct Answer: A

    Solution :

    \[\underset{12\,\times \,2\,+\,4\,=\,28}{\mathop{{{C}_{2}}{{H}_{4}}}}\,+\underset{96}{\mathop{3{{O}_{2}}}}\,\xrightarrow{{}}2C{{O}_{2}}+2{{H}_{2}}O\] \[\because \]The weight of oxygen required for complete combustion of 28 g ethylene =96 g. \[\therefore \] Weight of oxygen required for combustion of 2.8 kg ethylene                                 \[=\frac{96\times 2.8\times 1000}{28\times 1000}kg=9.8\,kg\]
