To determine the mole ratio of O2 to C4H9OH, we need to look at the balanced chemical equation for the combustion of butanol (C4H9OH). The balanced equation is:
[ C4H9OH + 6 O2 \rightarrow 4 CO2 + 5 H2O. ]
From the equation, the mole ratio of O2 to C4H9OH is 6:1. Thus, for every mole of butanol, six moles of oxygen are required.
