Question
According to this balanced chemical equation, what volume of C2H2 is required to form 40.0 L of CO2 ? 2 C2H2 (g) + 5 O2 (g) → 2 H2O (g) + 4 CO2 (g)Group of answer choices44.880.0 L100 L20.0 L
Solution
From the balanced chemical equation, we can see that 2 moles of C2H2 produce 4 moles of CO2. This means that the ratio of C2H2 to CO2 is 1:2.
Given that we want to produce 40.0 L of CO2, we can use this ratio to find the volume of C2H2 required.
Since the ratio is 1:2, the volume of C2H2 required is half of the volume of CO2.
Therefore, the volume of C2H2 required to produce 40.0 L of CO2 is 40.0 L / 2 = 20.0 L.
So, the answer is 20.0 L.
