The mass of ethanol (alcohol) = 538.016 g
<h3>Further explanation</h3>
Given
Reaction
C₁₂H₂₂O₁₁(aq)+H₂O(I) = CH₃CH₂OH(aq)+CO₂(g)
1 kg of sugar = 1000 g
Required
The mass of ethanol
Solution
Balanced equation
C₁₂H₂₂O₁₁(aq)+H₂O(I) = 4CH₃CH₂OH(aq)+4CO₂(g)
mol of sugar (MW = 12.12+22.1+11.16=342 g/mol) :
mol = mass : MW
mol = 1000 g : 342 g/mol
mol = 2.924
From the equation, mol ratio of C₁₂H₂₂O₁₁ : CH₃CH₂OH = 1 : 4, so mol ethanol =
= 4 x mol sugar
= 4 x 2.924
= 11.696
Mass of ethanol(MW=46 g/mol) :
mass = mol x MW
mass = 11.696 x 46
mass = 538.016 g
Law of conservation of matter: It is the principle that matter can not be destroyed or created and we have a finite and limit amount of matter in the universe.
