Gaseous methane reacts with gaseous oxygen gas to produce gaseous carbon dioxide and gaseous water. If 2.59 g of water is produc

max2010maxim [7]

<u>Answer:</u> The percent yield of the water is 31.98 %

<u>Explanation:</u>

To calculate the number of moles, we use the equation:

$\text{Number of moles}=\frac{\text{Given mass}}{\text{Molar mass}}$ .....(1)

<u>For methane:</u>

Given mass of methane = 6.58 g

Molar mass of methane = 16 g/mol

Putting values in equation 1, we get:

$\text{Moles of methane}=\frac{6.58g}{16g/mol}=0.411mol$

<u>For oxygen gas:</u>

Given mass of oxygen gas = 14.4 g

Molar mass of oxygen gas = 32 g/mol

Putting values in equation 1, we get:

$\text{Moles of oxygen gas}=\frac{14.4g}{32g/mol}=0.45mol$

The chemical equation for the combustion of methane is:

$CH_4+2O_2\rightarrow CO_2+2H_2O$

By Stoichiometry of the reaction:

2 moles of oxygen gas reacts with 1 mole of methane

So, 0.45 moles of oxygen gas will react with = $\frac{1}{2}\times 0.45=0.225mol$ of methane

As, given amount of methane is more than the required amount. So, it is considered as an excess reagent.

Thus, oxygen gas is considered as a limiting reagent because it limits the formation of product.

By Stoichiometry of the reaction

2 moles of oxygen gas produces 2 moles of water

So, 0.45 moles of oxygen gas will produce = $\frac{2}{2}\times 0.45=0.45$ moles of water

Now, calculating the mass of water from equation 1, we get:

Molar mass of water = 18 g/mol

Moles of water = 0.45 moles

Putting values in equation 1, we get:

$0.45mol=\frac{\text{Mass of water}}{18g/mol}\\\\\text{Mass of water}=(0.45mol\times 18g/mol)=8.1g$

To calculate the percentage yield of water, we use the equation:

$\%\text{ yield}=\frac{\text{Experimental yield}}{\text{Theoretical yield}}\times 100$

Experimental yield of water = 2.59 g

Theoretical yield of water = 8.1 g

Putting values in above equation, we get:

$\%\text{ yield of water}=\frac{2.59g}{8.1g}\times 100\\\\\% \text{yield of water}=31.98\%$

Hence, the percent yield of the water is 31.98 %
