Answer:
The mass of C2H2 in the mixture is 0.56gram using the ratio of carbon in the products contributed by the C2H2.
Explanation:
The balanced equation for the reaction is: C3H8 + 2C2H2 + 10O2 >> 7CO2 + 6H2O.
From the reaction, we know that the oxygen was in excess, this will make the Carbon sources the limiting agents in the reaction. The details of the reaction showed that the ratio of water to the carbon dioxide is 1.6:1. This also means that the expected mole of carbon dioxide will be 7/1.6, which is 3.75moles.
The individual balanced equation of reaction is:
C3H3 +5O2 >> 3CO2 + 4H2O
and 2C2H2 + 5O2 >>4CO2 + 2H2O. From this one can quickly tell that the propane is in sufficient supply as it produces 3 moles of CO2 out of the expected 3.75 moles obtained above. Leaving 0.75moles of CO2 to the ethyne.
The mass of ethyne in the mixture will therefore be: 0.75/3.75 X 2.8 = 0.56g.
Answer:
B. accepted value x 0.1
Explanation:
in the equation provided
Maximum allowed value of percentage error = 10%
put this value in the equation in stead of percentage error we get,
so maximum error = .1 x accepted value
10 % percentage error means the experimental value has 10 % error compared to accepted value.so error will be 10 % of the accepted value
or .1 times of accepted value
We determine the limiting reactant by using the moles present in the equation and the actual moles.
According to equation, ratio of Fe₂O₃ : Al = 1 : 2
Actual moles of Fe₂O₃ = 187.3 / (56 x 2 + 16 x 3)
= 1.17
Actual moles of Al = 94.51 / 27
= 3.5
Fe₂O₃ is limiting. Fe₂O₃ required:
(moles Al)/2 = 3.5/2 = 1.75
Moles to be added = 1.75 - 1.17
= 0.58
Mass to be added = moles x Mr
= 0.58 x (56 x 2 + 16 x 3)
= 92.8 grams
