Chapter 4, Problem 106E

(choose chapter or problem)

The combustion of liquid ethanol (C2H5OH) produces carbon dioxide and water. After 4.62 mL of ethanol ( density = 0.789 g/mL ) is allowed to burn in the presence of 15.55 g of oxygen gas, 3.72 mL of water (density = 1.00 g/mL) is collected. Determine the limiting reactant, theoretical yield of H2O , and percent yield for the reaction. (Hint: Write a balanced equation for the combustion of ethanol.)
