CaC2 +2H2O ➞ C2H2 +Ca(OH)2 a)If32.0gCaC2 areusedinthisreaction,?
b)56.8gC2H2?

A. 0.5 mole of Ca(OH)₂.

B. 4.37 moles of H₂O.

Explanation:

The balanced equation for the reaction is given below:

CaC₂ + 2H₂O —> C₂H₂ + Ca(OH)₂

Next, we shall determine the mass of CaC₂ that reacted and the mass of C₂H₂ produced from the balanced equation. This can be obtained as follow:

Molar mass of CaC₂ = 40 + (12×2)

= 40 + 24

= 64 g/mol

Mass of CaC₂ from the balanced equation = 1 × 64 = 64 g

Molar mass of C₂H₂ = (12×2) + (2×1)

= 24 + 2

= 26 g/mol

Mass of C₂H₂ from the balanced equation = 1 × 26 = 26 g

SUMMARY:

From the balanced equation above,

64 g of CaC₂ reacted with 2 moles of H₂O to produce 26 g of C₂H₂ and 1 mole of Ca(OH)₂.

A. Determination of the number of mole of Ca(OH)₂ produced by the reaction of 32.0 g of CaC₂.

From the balanced equation above,

64 g of CaC₂ reacted to produce 1 mole of Ca(OH)₂.

Therefore, 32 g of CaC₂ will react to produce = (32 × 1)/64 = 0.5 mole of Ca(OH)₂.

Thus, 0.5 mole of Ca(OH)₂ were obtained from the reaction.

B. Determination of the number of mole of H₂O needed to produce 56.8 g C₂H₂.

From the balanced equation above,

2 moles of H₂O reacted to produce 26 g of C₂H₂.

Therefore, Xmol of H₂O will react to produce 56.8 g C₂H₂ i.e

Xmol of H₂O = (2 × 56.8)/26

Xmol of H₂O = 4.37 moles

Thus, 4.37 moles of H₂O is needed for the reaction.

there all right good
