Answer:
118750 ml
Explanation:
The chemical equation for complete combustion of hexane is given as;
2C6H14 + 19O2 → 12CO2 + 14H2O
From the equation of the reaction;
2 mol of C6H14 reacts with 19 mol of O2
2 ml of C6H14 reacts with 19 ml of O2
2500 mL of C6H14 would react with x ml of O2
2 = 19
2500 = x
x = 2500 * 19 / 2 = 23750 ml
Since oxygen is 20% of air;
23750 = 20 / 100 * (Volume of air)
Volume of air = 23750 * 100 / 20 = 118750 ml
