1.35atm(760mmHg/1atm)=1026mmHg
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
