Acetylene gas, C2H2, used in welders' torches, releases 1300kJof heat when one mole of C2H2 undergoes combustion.
a. Write a balanced equation for the reaction, including the heat of reaction.
b. Is the reaction endothermic or exothermic?

c. How many moles of H2Oare produced when 2.00moles of O2 reacts?
d. How many grams of O2are needed to react with 9.80gof C2H2

Short Answer

Expert verified

Part(a) The balanced equation is C2H2+52O2→2CO2+H2O

Part(b) The reaction is exothermic.

Part(c) 0.8moles of H2Oare produced when 2.00moles of O2reacts.

Part(d) 15.2gO2is needed to react with 9.8gC2H2

Step by step solution

01

Part(a) Step 1 : Given information

We are given that Acetylene gas, is used in welders' torches, releases 1300kJof heat when one mole of acetylene undergoes combustion.

02

Part(a) Step 2 : Simplify

As given in the question acetylene is used in welder's torches and release energy during combustion. Therefore unbalanced equation will be :

C2H2+O2→CO2+H2O

Now in equation on left side there are two carbon , hydrogen and oxygen are present whereas in right side one carbon two hydrogen and three oxygen are present. so to balance the equation :C2H2+52O2→2CO2+H2O

03

Part(b) Step 1 : Given information

We are given that Acetylene gas, is used in welders' torches, releases 1300kJof heat when one mole of acetylene undergoes combustion.

04

Part(b) Step 2 : Simplify

As given in the question during combustion energy is released, Therefore the reaction used in welder's torches is Exothermic.

05

Part(c) Step 1 : Given information

We are given that Acetylene gas, is used in welders' torches, releases 1300kJof heat when one mole of acetylene undergoes combustion.

06

Part(c) Step 2 : Simplify

The reaction is C2H2+52O2→2CO2+H2O

For two moles of oxygen, multiply the equation with 45

After multiplying , we get 45C2H2+2O2→85CO2+45H2O

So from above equation, We can say 0.8 moles of water is produced.

07

Part(d) Step 1 : Given information

We are given that Acetylene gas, is used in welders' torches, releases 1300kJof heat when one mole of acetylene undergoes combustion.

08

Part(d) Step 2 : Simplify

As we know, Molar mass of acetylene is 26.0g

so 9.80gmeans 0.38moles of acetylene. According to reaction C2H2+52O2→2CO2+H2O

1moleC2H2=2.5moleO20.38moleC2H2=0.95moleO21moleO2=16g0.95moleO2=15.2g

15.2gO2is needed to react.
