What is the maximum amount of CO2

Chemistry

Wittaler [7]2 years ago

Answer:

10.6 g CO₂

Explanation:

You have not been given a limiting reagent. Therefore, to find the maximum amount of CO₂, you need to convert the masses of both reactants to CO₂. The smaller amount of CO₂ produced will be the accurate amount. This is because that amount is all the corresponding reactant can produce before it runs out.

To find the mass of CO₂, you need to (1) convert grams C₂H₂/O₂ to moles (via molar mass), then (2) convert moles C₂H₂/O₂ to moles CO₂ (via mole-to-mole ratio from reaction coefficients), and then (3) convert moles CO₂ to grams (via molar mass). *I had to guess the chemical reaction because the reaction coefficients are necessary in calculating the mass of CO₂.*

C₂H₂ + O₂ ----> 2 CO₂ + H₂

9.31 g C₂H₂            1 mole               2 moles CO₂          44.0095 g
------------------  x  -------------------  x  ----------------------  x  -------------------  =
                            26.0373 g           1 mole C₂H₂              1 mole

=  31.5 g CO₂

3.8 g O₂             1 mole               2 moles CO₂          44.0095 g
-------------  x  --------------------  x  ----------------------  x  --------------------  =
                       31.9988 g              1 mole O₂                 1 mole

=  10.6 g CO₂

10.6 g CO₂ is the maximum amount of CO₂ that can be produced. In other words, the entire 3.8 g O₂ will be used up in the reaction before all of the 9.31 g C₂H₂ will be used.

The disturbance of a supersaturated solution will cause
Flura [38]
The disturbance of a supersaturated solution will cause precipitation. A supersaturated solution is a solution that contains more solute than the solvent can dissolve. When this type of solution is disturbed like when it is moved, the formation of a solid is observed immediately.
