Ethene, C2H4, burns in oxygen according to the equation. In an experiment, 10cm3 of ethene was burnt in 50cm3 of oxygen.

C2H4 + 3O2 = 2CO2 + 2H2O


i) Calculate the volume of the oxygen gas remaining at the end of the reaction.

ii) Calculate the volume of carbon dioxide produced.

Respuesta :

Oseni

i) The volume of oxygen gas remaining will be 20 cm3

ii) The volume of carbon dioxide produced will be 20 cm3

Volume ratios

Gases are known to react in volume ratios at standard temperature and pressure. So, we are assuming that the illustrated reaction happened at STP.

From the balanced equation, the mole ratio of ethene and oxygen is 1:3. This means that for every 1 cm3 of ethene, 3 cm3 of oxygen is required.

With 10 cm3 of ethene, 30 cm3 of oxygen will be required. But 50 cm3 was used for the experiment.

i) Remaining oxygen = 50 - 30 = 20 cm3

ii) The mole ratio of ethene and carbon dioxide is 1:2. Thus, for 10 cm3 ethene, the volume of carbon dioxide produced will be:

             10 x 2 = 20 cm3
