Question

If exactly 3 moles of propanol (C3H8O) is combusted in the presence of excess oxygen (O2) for form carbon dioxide (CO2) and water (H2O), how many moles of water will be produced?

Enter the integer number of moles of H2O, do not enter the unit.

Hint: Since this problem and two problems below rely on this reaction, make sure you balance this reaction very carefully on paper as your first step before doing any calculations. The reaction to be balanced is reaction between C3H8O(l) and O2(g) to produce CO2(g) and H2O(l).
