Carbon dioxide gas, CO 2 (g), produced in the combustion of a sample of ethane is absorbed

Question:

Carbon dioxide gas, CO2(g), produced in the combustion of a sample of ethane is absorbed in Ba(OH)2(aq), producing 0.506 g BaCO3(s). How many grams of ethane (C2H6) must have been burned? 

C2H6(g) + O2(g) → CO2(g) + H2O(l) (not balanced) 

CO2(g) + Ba(OH)2(aq) → BaCO3(s) + H2O(l)
