Question

8. Welders routinely use cutting torches to cut through steel beams and plate in all sorts of steel construction activities. The very hot flame at the tip of the cutting torch is produced by the complete combustion of 'ethyne gas' (more commonly known as acetylene gas). Acetylene gas has the formula $C_2H_2$. What mass of oxygen gas will be required to burn 52.00 grams of acetylene?

Step 1

2 C2H2 + 5 O2 -> 4 CO2 + 2 H2O (or for 1 mol C2H2: C2H2 + 2.5 O2 -> 2 CO2 + H2O) Show more…
