Question
2C2H2(g)+5O2(g)⟶Δ4CO2(g)+2H2O(g)
How many moles of CO2 are produced when 3.5 mol of C2H2 react?
Expert Solution
Step 1
The given reaction is the combustion of acetylene gas in presence of oxygen.
2C2H2(g) + 5O2 ------->∆ 4CO2 (g) + 2H2O(g)
From the given reaction and looking at the stoichiometric coefficient we can say that
1 mol of C2H2 after combustion produces 2 mol of CO2
