Taking into account the reaction stoichiometry, 15.33 grams ethanol could be obtained from 30 grams of glucose.

<h3>Reaction stoichiometry</h3>

In first place, the balanced reaction is:

C₆H₁₂O₆  → 2 C₂H₅OH + 2 CO₂

By reaction stoichiometry (that is, the relationship between the amount of reagents and products in a chemical reaction), the following amounts of moles of each compound participate in the reaction:

  • C₆H₁₂O₆: 1 mole  
  • C₂H₅OH: 2 moles
  • CO₂: 2 moles

The molar mass of the compounds is:

  • C₆H₁₂O₆: 180 g/mole
  • C₂H₅OH: 46 g/mole
  • CO₂: 44 g/mole

Then, by reaction stoichiometry, the following mass quantities of each compound participate in the reaction:

  • C₆H₁₂O₆: 1 mole ×180 g/mole= 180 grams
  • C₂H₅OH: 2 moles ×46 g/mole= 92 grams
  • CO₂: 2 moles ×44 g/mole= 88 grams

<h3>Mass of C₂H₅OH formed</h3>

The following rule of three can be applied: if by reaction stoichiometry 180 grams of glucose form 92 grams of ethanol, 30 grams of glucose form how much mass of ethanol?

mass of ethanol=\frac{30 grams of glucosex 92 grams of ethanol}{180 grams of glucose}

<u><em>mass of ethanol= 15.33 grams</em></u>

Then, 15.33 grams ethanol could be obtained from 30 grams of glucose.

What is the theoretical yield of a reaction?
mestny [16]
I think it's D, because theoretical yield is like, the yield you'd get if 100% of the reactants formed to make product. Well that's how I think of it, but it has something to do with limiting reagents and stuff. Sorry this isn't a really detailed explanation.

A person’s blood alcohol (C2H5OH) level can be determined by titrating a sample of blood plasma
Elanso [62]

Answer:

0.17%

Explanation:

With the equation:

2Cr2O7 2- + C2H5OH + H2O --> 4Cr3+ + 2CO2 + 11H2O

We can assume that every mole of ethanol needs 2 moles of Dichromate to react.

So if in 1L we have 0.05961 moles of dichromate we can discover how many moles we have in 35.46mL

1000 mL - 0.05962 moles

35.46 mL - x

x = \frac{0.05962 * 35.46}{1000}

x = 2,11* 10^-3 moles

As we said earlier, 1 mole of ethanol needs 2 mole of dichromate, so in the solution we have 1,055*10^-3 moles of ethanol. We can discover the mass of ethanol present in the solution.

1 mole - 46g

1.055*10^-3 - y

y = 46 * 1.055*10^-3

y = 0.048 g

To discover the percent of alchol we can use a simple relation

28 g - 100%

0.048 - z

z = \frac{0.048 * 100}{28}

z = 0.17%
