One way that ethanol (C2H,0, M.M. = 46.08 g/mol) is produced is through the reduction of CO2 using H2, as shown below.|2 CO2(g) + 6 H2(g) → C2H6O(g) + 3 H2O(g)If the partial pressure of CO2 is 2.8 atm and the partial pressure of H2 is 8.9 atm in a reaction vessel with a volume of 10.5 L and held at 350 K, whatis the theoretical yield (in grams) of ethanol? Make sure to report your answer to the correct number of significant figures and with the correct units.Answer:

Since the volume and temperature is same for all the components hence we can directly say that 2…
