Question

1. how many moles of c₂h₂ are produced by adding 5 moles of cac₂?

Explanation:

Step1: Write the chemical reaction equation

The reaction between \(CaC_{2}\) and water (\(H_{2}O\)) is \(CaC_{2}+2H_{2}O = Ca(OH)_{2}+C_{2}H_{2}\).

Step2: Determine the mole ratio

From the balanced equation, the mole ratio of \(CaC_{2}\) to \(C_{2}H_{2}\) is \(1:1\).

Step3: Calculate the moles of \(C_{2}H_{2}\)

If \(n(CaC_{2}) = 5\space mol\), using the mole ratio \(\frac{n(C_{2}H_{2})}{n(CaC_{2})}=\frac{1}{1}\), then \(n(C_{2}H_{2})=n(CaC_{2})\).

Answer:

\(5\space mol\)
