propane cylinder is used in remote areas of pipeline natural gas for cooking and heating, and is also the source of heat in most of the gas barbecue grills. Propane burns in oxygen according to the following balanced chemical equation: C3H8 (g) +5 O2 (g) = 3CO2 (g) +4 H2O (g) Calculate the mass in grams of water vapor generated if 3. 11 moles of propane is burned.

3.11 moles propane
1mole propane = 4 moles H2O
1 moles H2O = 18.02 g
=224.1699 g H2O
