Combustion of hydrocarbons such as propane (C3H8) produces carbon dioxide, a "greenhouse gas." Greenhouse gases in the Earth's atmosphere can trap the Sun's heat, raising the average temperature of the Earth. For this reason there has been a great deal of international discishion about whether to regulate the production of carbon dioxide. 1. Write a bolanced chemical equation, including physical state symbois, for the combustion of gaseous propane into gaseous carbon dioxide and gaseous water. C3H3(O)+5O2(e)→3CO2(e)+4H2O(θ) 2. Suppose 0.110kg of propane are burned in air at a pressure of exactly 1atm and a temperature of 12.0∘C. Caiculate the volume of carbon dioxide gas that is produced. Be sure your answer has the correct number of significant digits 162L
