Answer:

1 mole of CaC₂ will produce 26g of C₂H₂ or 64.1g of CaC₂ will produce 26g of C₂H₂

Explanation:

Hello,

To solve this question, we'll require a balanced chemical equation of reaction between calcium carbide and water.

Equation of reaction

CaC₂ + 2H₂O → Ca(OH)₂ + C₂H₂

Molar mass of calcium carbide (CaC₂) = 64.1g/mol

Molar mass of water (H₂O) = 18g/mol

Molar mass of calcium hydroxide (Ca(OH)₂) = 74g/mol

Molar mass of ethyne (C₂H₂) = 26g/mol

From the equation of reaction, 1 mole of CaC₂ will produce 1 mole of C₂H₂

1 mole of CaC₂ = mass / molar mass

Mass = 1 × 64.1

Mass = 64.1g

1 mole of C₂H₂ = mass / molar mass

Mass = 1 × 26

Mass = 26g

Therefore, 1 mole of CaC₂ will produce 26g of C₂H₂

Note: this is a hypothetical calculation since we were not given the initial mass of CaC₂ that starts the reaction

Why would an atom have zero charge
iragen [17]

Answer:

The overall charge of an atom is zero. ... The charge from a proton or electron are of equal strength, therefore if an atom has an equal number of protons and electrons, it will be electrically neutral. However, atoms are not always electrically neutral, in which case they are called ions.

The concentration of the solution decreases hence the time taken for the cross to become invisible increases.

<h3>Rate of reaction</h3>

The term rate of reaction refers to how quickly or slowly a reaction occurs. This is usually measured in units of time. We are now going to look at the scenario in the question.

We know that rate of reaction depends on the concentration of the reactants. The higher the concentration, the more the reacting particles in solution and the faster the rate of reaction.

As the volume of thiosulphate decreases and the volume of water increases, the concentration of the solution decreases hence the time taken for the cross to become invisible increases.

SIZIF [17.4K]
The balanced chemical reaction for the system given is as follows:

2Mg + 2HCl = 2MgCl + H2

The mole ratio of the reactants is one is to one which means with a given amount of magnesium requires the same amount of hydrochloric acid to have a complete reaction. If supplied exactly, then after the reaction, all of the reactants are consumed and formed into the products.
