Ethanol burns in excess oxygen to form CO₂(g) and H₂O(g) according to this balanced equation.
C₂H₅OH(g) + 3O₂(g) → 2CO₂(g) + 3H₂O(g)
What value is closest to the volume of CO₂(g), measured at ²⁰⁰K and 1 atm, produced from the combustion of 0.25 mol of C₂H₅OH(g)?

Question

Ethanol burns in excess oxygen to form CO2(g) and H2O(g)  according to this balanced equation.
