Ethylene + Oxygen


Ethylene + Oxygen ➜ Carbon Dioxide + water
C₂H₄ + 3O₂ ➜ 2CO₂ + 2H₂O
molecular weights
C = 12
H = 1
O = 16
C₂H₄ = 2•12+4 = 28
3O₂ = 3•2•16 = 96
2CO₂ = 2•(12+32) = 88
2H₂O = 2•18 = 36
check 28+96 = 88+36 = 124

1 mole of C₂H₄ + 3 moles of O₂ ➜ 2 mole of CO₂ + 2 moles of H₂O
28 grams of C₂H₄ + 96 grams of O₂ ➜ 88 grams of CO₂ + 36 grams of H₂O
