Explanation / Answer

C2H4(g) +3O(g) ---> 2 CO2(g) + 2H2O(g)

from theequation, 1 mole c2h4 = 3mole o2 = 2 mole co2 = 2 mole h2o

wt of c2h4 = 5.06 grams , mwt of c2h4 = 28g/mol

No of moles of c2h4 = w/mwt = 5.06/28 = 0.181 mole

No of moles of O2 required = 0.181*3 = = 0.543 mole

mass of O2 required = = 0.543*32 = 17.376 grams
