Using the balanced equation for the combustion of acetylene, answer the following questions.

2 H―C≡C―H + 5 O2 → 4 CO2 + 2 H2O

a. How many moles of O2 are needed to react completely with 1.00 mol of C2H2?

mol O2

b. How many moles of C2H2 are needed to form 0.46 mol of CO2?

mol C2H2

Respuesta :

The  moles of O2 are needed to react completely with 1.00 mol of C₂H₂ is 5 mol , 0.23  moles of C₂H₂ are needed to form 0.46 mol of CO₂ .

What is a Balanced Reaction ?

A balanced reaction is a reaction in which the number of atoms present in the reactants is equal to the number of atoms in the products.

It is given in the question that

the combustion of Acetylene is given by

2 H―C≡C―H + 5 O₂ → 4 CO₂ + 2 H₂O

Given moles of Acetylene = 1 mol

Moles of oxygen needed = 5 mol

as the mole fraction of Acetylene to Oxygen is 1 :5

The mole of Acetylene needed to form 0.46 mol of CO₂ is ?

mole fraction of CO₂ to Acetylene is 4:2

Therefore 0.23 moles of CO₂ is required.
