    When 2C2H6 (g) + 7 O2 (g) ⇒ 4CO2 (g) + 6H2O (L) is the balanced equation for this reaction:

    So from the equation, 2 mol of C2H6 gives → 4 mol of CO2

    So the molar ratio between C2H6 & CO2 is

    2 mol C2H6:4 mol CO2 we can make it:

    1 mol C2H6: 2 mol Co2

    So when we have 5.3 mol of C2H6 how many moles of CO2 then

    the moles of CO2 = 5.3 * 2 mol (CO2) / 1 mol (C2H6)

    = 10.6 mol
