Answer:- As per the question is asked, 35.0 moles of acetylene gives 70 moles of carbon dioxide but if we solve the problem using the limiting reactant which is oxygen then 67.2 moles of carbon dioxide will form.

Solution:- The balanced equation for the combustion of acetylene is:

2C_2H_2(g)+5O_2(g)\rightarrow 4CO_2(g)+2H_2O(g)

From the balanced equation, two moles of acetylene gives four moles of carbon dioxide. Using dimensional analysis we could show the calculations for the formation of carbon dioxide by the combustion of 35.0 moles of acetylene.

35.0molC_2H_2(\frac{4molCO_2}{2molC_2H_2})

= 70molCO_2

The next part is, how we choose 35.0 moles of acetylene and not 84.0 moles of oxygen.

From balanced equation, there is 2:5 mol ratio between acetylene and oxygen. Let's calculate the moles of oxygen required to react completely with 35.0 moles of acetylene.

35.0molC_2H_2(\frac{5molO_2}{2molC_2H_2})

= 87.5molO_2

Calculations shows that 87.5 moles of oxygen are required to react completely with 35.0 moles of acetylene. Since only 84.0 moles of oxygen are available, the limiting reactant is oxygen, so 35.0 moles of acetylene will not react completely as it is excess reactant.

So, the theoretical yield should be calculated using 84.0 moles of oxygen as:

84.0molO_2(\frac{4molO_2}{5molO_2})

= 67.2molCO_2

Answer : The number of moles of CO_2 produced are, 70 moles

Solution : Given,

Moles of C_2H_2 = 35 mole

Moles of O_2 = 84 mole

The balanced chemical reaction will be,

2C_2H_2+5O_2\rightarrow 4CO_2+2H_2O

From the balanced reaction, we conclude that

As, 2 moles of acetylene react completely to give 4 moles of carbon dioxide

So, 35 moles of acetylene react completely to give \farc{4}{2]\times 35=70 moles of carbon dioxide

Therefore, the number of moles of CO_2 produced are, 70 moles

Compare the limiting reactant and the excess reactant in a reaction​
Dominik [7]

The limiting reactant is the substance of the reactants that runs out first. The excess reactant is the substance with the greater amount than necessary to react completely with the limiting reactant after a chemical reaction.
