The reaction is

CaC₂(s) + 2H₂O (l) -----> Ca(OH)₂ (s) + C₂H₂ (g) ​

As we have data of gas ethyne (or acetylene), C₂H₂

We can calculate the moles of acetylene and from this we can estimate the mass of calcium carbide taken

the moles of acetylene will be calculated using ideal gas equation

PV =nRT

R = gas constant = 0.0821 Latm/molK

T = 385 K

V = volume = 550 L

P = Pressure = 1.25 atm

n = moles = ?

n = PV /RT = 1.25 X 550 / 0.0821 X 385 = 21.75 mol

As per balanced equation these moles of acetylene will be obtained from same moles of calcium carbide

moles of calcium carbide = 21.75mol

molar mass of CaC₂ = 40 + 24 = 64

mass of CaC₂ = moles X molar mass = 21.75 X 64 = 1392g

Answer:

The mass of calcium carbide is 1,392 grams.

Explanation:

Pressure of the ethyne gas = P = 1.25 atm

Volume of the ethyne gas = V = 550 L

Temperature of the ethyne gas = T = 385 K

Moles of ethyne gas = n

PV = nRT (ideal gas equation)

n=\frac{PV}{RT}=\frac{1.25 atm\times 550 L}{0.0821 atm L/mol K\times 385 K}=21.75 mol

CaC_2(s) + 2 H2O (l)\rightarrow Ca(OH)_2 (s) + C_2H_2 (g)

According to reaction , 1 mole of ethyne is obtained from 1 mole of calcium carbide.

Then 21.75 moles of ethyne will be obtained from:

\frac{1}{1}\times 21.75 mol=21.75 mol calcium carbide.

Mass of 21.75 moles of calcium carbide:

= 21.75 mol × 64 g/mol = 1,392 g

The mass of calcium carbide is 1,392 grams.

sergiy2304 [10]
P1 = 5.7atm V1 = 26L
P2 = ? V2 = 6.5 L

By Boyles Law,
P1V1 = P2V2
5.7 × 26 = P2 × 6.5
By solving,
P2 = 22.8atm.
