Answer:
1.78 mol
Explanation:
Step 1: Write the balanced equation
CaC₂ + H₂O ⇒ C₂H₂ + CaO
Step 2: Calculate the moles corresponding to 46.3 g of C₂H₂
The molar mass of C₂H₂ is 26.04 g/mol.
46.3 g × 1 mol/26.04 g = 1.78 mol
Step 3: Calculate the moles of H₂O required to form 1.78 moles of C₂H₂.
The molar ratio of H₂O to C₂H₂ is 1:1. The moles of H₂O required are 1/1 × 1.78 mol = 1.78 mol.
Endothermic energy is taking place. The sausage is being heated by the fire and absorbing the thermal energy.
For this problem, we use the equation derived from Beer's Law as written below:
A = ∈LC,
where
A is the absorbance
∈ is the molar absorptivity
L is the path length of the cuvette
C is the concentration of the sample solution placed in the cuvette
To determine C, we have to know the rest of the parameters. Generally, the equation for C would be:
C = A/∈L = A/∈(1 cm)
C = A/∈
If you know the absorbance and the molar absorptivity in mol/L·cm, you can determine the value of C.
