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.
Answer:
is the formula for the limiting reagent.
Mass of silver chloride produced is 71.8 g.
Explanation:
Moles of silver nitrate = 0.500 mol
Moles of copper(II) chloride = 0.285 mol
According to reaction, 2 moles of silver nitrate reacts with 1 mole of copper chloride , then 0.500 mole of silver nitrate will react with :
of copper(II) chloride
As we can see that moles of copper(II) chloride will be reacting is 0.250 mol less than present moles of copper (II) chloride ,so this means that silver nitrate is limiting reagent.
And moles of silver chloride to be formed will depend upon silver nitrate.
According to reaction, 2 moles of silver nitrate gives 2 moles of silver chloride , then 0.500 mole of silver nitrate will give :
of silver chloride
Mass of silver chloride produced:
0.500 mol × 143.5 g/mol = 71.8 g
The reaction is an exothermic one because heat is released to the surroundings. An exothermic reaction is a chemical reaction where energy is being released as the reaction by light or heat. On the other hand, endothermic reaction needs energy input for the reaction to proceed.
