Gaseous ethane reacts with gaseous oxygen gas to produce gaseous carbon dioxide and gaseous water . What is the theoretical yiel
Effectus [21]

Answer:

1) Write the balanced equation:

2C2H6 + 7O2 ---> 4CO2 + 6H2O

2) Determine limiting reagent:

C2H6 ⇒ 13.8 g / 30.0694 g/mol = 0.45894 mol

O2 ⇒ 45.8 g / 31.9988 g/mol = 1.4313 mol

C2H6 ⇒ 0.45894 / 2 = 0.22947

O2 ⇒ 1.4313 / 7 = 0.20447

Oxygen is limiting.

3) Determine theoretical yield of water:

The oxygen : water molar ratio is 7 : 6

7 is to 6 as 1.4313 mol is to x

x = 1.2268286 mol of water

4) Convert moles of water to grams:

1.2268286 mol times 18.015 g/mol = 22.1 g (to three sig figs)

Solution to (b):

14.2 g / 22.1 g = 64.2%
