<span>Water soaks into it easily and during freeze-thaw cycles would be more likely to break apart because of the water freezing and thawing inside the rock. The water freezes and expands inside the rock, causing the surface to break off in flakes from the pressure of the expanding ice inside.</span>

Acetylene (C2H2), an important fuel in welding, is produced in the laboratory when calcium carbide (CaC2) reacts with water: CaC
Anastaziya [24]

Answer:

There are 1.287 grams of acetylene collected

Explanation:

Total gas pressure = 909 mmHg

Vapor pressure of water = 20.7 mmHg

Pressure of acetylene = 909 mmHg - 20.7 mmHg = 888.3 mmHg

1mmHg = 1 torr

22 ° C + 273.15 = 295.15 Kelvin

Ideal gas law ⇒ pV = nRT

⇒ with p = pressure of the gas in atm

⇒ with V = volume of the gas in L

⇒ with n = amount of substance of gas ( in moles)

⇒ with R = gas constant, equal to the product of the Boltzmann constant and the Avogadro constant (62.36 L * Torr *K^−1 *mol^−1)

⇒ with T = absolute temperature of the gas (in Kelvin)

888.3 torr * 1.024 L = n * 62.36 L * Torr *K^−1 *mol^−1 * 295.15 K

n = 0.04942 moles of C2H2

Mass of C2H2 = 0.04942 moles x 26.04 g/mole = 1.287 g

There are 1.287 grams of acetylene collected

Read the word equation: “Propane gas plus oxygen gas produces __________.”
Dmitriy789 [7]

Answer:

Propane gas plus oxygen gas produces water and carbon dioxide.

Explanation:

This is the initial chemical equation: C3H8 + O2 = CO2 + H2O

This is the balanced chemical equation: C3H8 + 5 O2 = 3 CO2 + 4 H2O
