Answer to Question #166621 in General Chemistry for Tamanna Handa

Question

4.62 ml c2h5OH ( m = 46.07 g/mol and density = 0.789g/mol) is combusted in the presence of 15.55g of o2 and 3.72 g of h2o . determine the precentage yeild c2h5oh10 + 3o2 = 2co2 + 3h2o

Answer 1

This reaction has a CO2 percent yield of 62.3%

What will be the mass of CO2 EXPERIMENTALLY obtained when 44.5g O2 and 24.6g C2H5OH are reacted?

Molar masses: C2H5OH = 46.07 g/mol; O2= 32.00 g/mol; CO2= 44.01 g/mol; H2O= 18.016 g/mol
