Acetylene is hyrodgenated to form ethane. The feed to the reactor contains 1.60 mol H2/mol C2H2. The reaction proceeds to completion. a. Calculate the stoichiometric reactant ratio (mol H2 reacted/mol C2H2 reacted) and the yield ratio (mol C2H6 formed/mol H2 reacted).

Explanation:

C₂H₂     +   2H₂   =     C₂H₆

1 mole     2 mole        1 mole

Feed of reactant is 1.6 mole H₂ / mole C₂H₂

or 1.6 mole of H₂ for 1 mole of C₂H₂

required ratio as per chemical reaction written above

2 mole of  H₂ for 1 mole of C₂H₂

So H₂ is in short supply . Hence it is limiting reagent .

1.6 mole of H₂ will react with half of 1.6 mole or .8 mole of C₂H₂ to form .8 mole of C₂H₆

a )Calculate the stoichiometric reactant ratio =  mole H₂ reacted/mole C₂H₂ reacted

= 1.6 / .8 = 2 .

b )

yield ratio = mole C₂H₆ formed / mole H₂ reacted ) = 0.8 / 1.6 = 1/2 = 0.5 .

considering the question as per the attachment

here we can see that the radon nuclide has 222 as the atomic mass number and 86 as the atomic number.

when it undergoes nuclear fission it gives polonium which has atomic mass number as 218 and atomic number will be 84 along with a helium nucleus which has 4 atomic mass number and 2 as its atomic number.

222 = 218 + 4 (atomic mass number)

86 = ? + 2; therefore ? = 86-2 = 84.

the atomic mass number of polonium will be 84.
