No, because plastic cups can be dissolved by organic compounds. Moreover, they are easily melted so a highly exothermic reaction can not be studied using them.

Acetylene gas (C2H2) burns completely in the presence of oxygen gas (O2) to yield carbon dioxide
Luda [366]

A. The balanced equation for the reaction is

2C₂H₂ + 5O₂ —> 4CO₂ + 2H₂O

B. The volume of the oxygen gas required to burn 0.700 L of acetylene gas is 1.75 L

C. The volume of carbon dioxide gas produced is 1.4 L

D. The volume of water vapor produced is 0.7 L

<h3>A. Balanced equation </h3>

The balanced equation for the reaction between acetylene gas (C₂H₂) and oxygen gas (O₂) is given below

2C₂H₂ + 5O₂ —> 4CO₂ + 2H₂O

<h3>B. How to determine the volume of oxygen </h3>

2C₂H₂ + 5O₂ —> 4CO₂ + 2H₂O

Since the reaction occurred at standard temperature and pressure, we can thus say that:

From the balanced equation above,

2 L of C₂H₂ reacted with 5 L O₂.

Therefore,

0.7 L of C₂H₂ will react with = (0.7 × 5) / 2 = 1.75 L of O₂

Thus, 1.75 L of O₂ is needed for the reaction

<h3>C. How to determine the volume of carbon dioxide </h3>

2C₂H₂ + 5O₂ —> 4CO₂ + 2H₂O

From the balanced equation above,

2 L of C₂H₂ reacted to produce 4 L of CO₂

Therefore,

0.7 L of C₂H₂ will react to produce = (0.7 × 4) / 2 = 1.4 L of CO₂

Thus, 1.4 L of CO₂ were produced

<h3>D. How to determine the volume of water. </h3>

2C₂H₂ + 5O₂ —> 4CO₂ + 2H₂O

From the balanced equation above,

2 L of C₂H₂ reacted to produce 2 L of H₂O

Therefore,

0.7 L of C₂H₂ will also react to produce 0.7 L of H₂O

Thus, 0.7 L of H₂O was produced

Please help ASAP!! <br><br>I am not sure how to solve this! <br><br>​
umka2103 [35]

Answer:

Potassium (K) has 19 protons.

Each neutral atom of Potassium has 19 electrons.

Explanation:

A) Potassium has 19 protons because the atomic number tells us how many protons are in an atom of the element. (The atomic number is the number above the element symbol. For example, the number above "K" is 19, which is the atomic number).

B) If an atom is neutral, this means that the atom has neutral energy. Protons give positive energy and electrons give negative energy. For the atom to be neutral, the atom must have balanced energy, therefore, making the number of electrons equal to the number of protons in a neutral atom.
