If 4.55 mol of calcium carbide (CaC2) reacts with an excess of water, how many moles of acetylene (C2H2), a gas used in welding,
Rina8888 [55]

Answer:

4.55 mol of C₂H₂

Explanation:

Let's verify the reaction:

CaC₂   +    2H₂O   →   C₂H₂   +  Ca(OH)₂

Ratio is 1:1, so 1 mol of calcium carbide will produce 1 mol of acetylene.

4.55 mol of CaC₂ will make the same amount of C₂H₂
