Part 1 (10 points): Write an original post answering this problem: A scientist wants to perform a reaction using propane and oxygen gas. The scientist only has 15 grams of propane available. How many grams of the carbon containing product can she collect?

HINT: you will need to:
Figure out what type of reaction is happening
write out AND balance the reaction
figure out what type of stoichiometric conversion to use
perform that conversion
You may show work by typing it in or by inserting a picture of work you did by hand!

Part 2 (5 points):

Provide a THOUGTHFUL response to a classmate's post!
Thoughtful replies should analyze the work they did and state why you think they did it correctly, or provide constructive feedback if you think they did it incorrectly

explanation:

metals have excess of electrons whereas non-metals have deficiency of electrons. thus, in order to gain stability metals easily donate their electrons to the non-metals.

for example, electronic configuration of sodium is and electronic configuration of phosphorous is .

when a phosphorous atom and sodium atom combine together then sodium will donate is extra one electron to the phosphorous atom. as a result there will be formation of ionic bond between sodium and phosphorous.

the reaction will be as follows.

there, are three sodium sodium atoms and each of them will donate its one extra electron to phosphorous atom. thus, the sub-shell of phosphorous gets completely filled.  

thus, we can conclude that electrons are transferred from atoms of sodium to atoms of phosphorous. this transfer makes the sodium atoms donate one electron and the phosphorous atoms to gain one electron. as a result, the sodium and phosphorus atoms strongly attract each other.
