Answer:
Explanation:
C₂H₂ + 2H₂ = C₂H₆
1 mole 2 mole 1 mole
Feed of reactant is 1.6 mole H₂ / mole C₂H₂
or 1.6 mole of H₂ for 1 mole of C₂H₂
required ratio as per chemical reaction written above
2 mole of H₂ for 1 mole of C₂H₂
So H₂ is in short supply . Hence it is limiting reagent .
1.6 mole of H₂ will react with half of 1.6 mole or .8 mole of C₂H₂ to form .8 mole of C₂H₆
a )Calculate the stoichiometric reactant ratio = mole H₂ reacted/mole C₂H₂ reacted
= 1.6 / .8 = 2 .
b )
yield ratio = mole C₂H₆ formed / mole H₂ reacted ) = 0.8 / 1.6 = 1/2 = 0.5 .
A carbon atom and a hydrogen atom would form a covalent bond in a molecule. Specifically it would be a Nonpolar covalent bond.
