This question tests stoichiometry and states of matter. The balanced reaction is: 2 A(s) + B(g) → 3 C(g) + 4 D(ℓ).
Let's evaluate each option:
1. Incorrect. Excess depends on initial amounts, not physical state.
2. Incorrect. Moles are independent of volume; 4 mol D are produced per 3 mol C.
3. Correct. From stoichiometry, 2 mol A produce exactly 3 mol C and 4 mol D.
4. Correct. At STP (1 atm, 273 K), 22.4 L of any gas is 1 mol. 1 mol B produces 3 mol C.
Final answer: The correct statements are the third and fourth options.
