C31H64 + 4702 - 31C02+32H20

Use the balanced equation to calculate what mass of oxygen was consumed in the

reaction.

1504g of oxygen was consumed

Explanation:

C31H64 + 4702 - > 31C02 + 32H20

From the equation, we see clearly that 47moles of O2 was consumed in the reaction.

Molar Mass of O2 = 32g/mol

Number of mole of O2 = 47moles

Mass conc. Of O2 = number of mole x molar Mass

Mass conc. Of O2 = 47 x 32 = 1504g

Therefore, the mass of oxygen consumed in the reaction is 1504g.
