Given the data from the question,
A. The number of mole of water needed for the reaction is 1 mole
Bi. The number of mole of C₂H₂ formed is 0.5 mole
Bii. The number of mole of Ca(OH)₂ formed is 0.5 mole
How to determine the mole of CaC₂
- Mass of CaC₂ = 32 g
- Molar mass of CaC₂ = 40 + (12×2) = 64 g/mol
- Mole of CaC₂ =?
Mole = mass / molar mass
Mole of CaC₂ = 32 / 64
Mole of CaC₂ = 0.5 mole
A. How to determine the mole of water neede
Balanced equation
CaC₂ + 2H₂O —> C₂H₂ + Ca(OH)₂
From the balanced equation above,
1 mole of CaC₂ required 2 moles of H₂O
Therefore,
0.5 mole of CaC₂ will require = 0.5 × 2 = 1 mole of H₂O
Thus, 1 mole of H₂O is needed for the reaction.
Bi. How to determine the mole of C₂H₂ produced
Balanced equation
CaC₂ + 2H₂O —> C₂H₂ + Ca(OH)₂
From the balanced equation above,
1 mole of CaC₂ reacted to produce 1 mole of C₂H₂
Therefore,
0.5 mole of CaC₂ will also react to produce 0.5 mole of C₂H₂
Thus, 0.5 mole of C₂H₂ was obtained from the reaction
Bii. How to determine the mole of Ca(OH)₂ produced
Balanced equation
CaC₂ + 2H₂O —> C₂H₂ + Ca(OH)₂
From the balanced equation above,
1 mole of CaC₂ reacted to produce 1 mole of Ca(OH)₂
Therefore,
0.5 mole of CaC₂ will also react to produce 0.5 mole of Ca(OH)₂
Thus, 0.5 mole of Ca(OH)₂ was obtained from the reaction
