Formation of polyethyene from calcium ca...

Formation of polyethyene from calcium carbide takes place is follows :
`CaC_(2)+2H_(2)OtoCa(OH)_(2)+C_(2)H_(2)`
`C_(2)H_(2)+H_(2)toC_(2)H_(4)`

The amount of polyethylene obtained from `64.0kg " of "CaC_(2)` is

A

`14kg`

B

`7kg`

C

`21kg`

D

`28kg`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
D

n mol of `CaC_(2)`=n mol of`C_(2)H_(4)`=n mol of
`nxx64kg=nxx28kg=nxx28kg`
Amount of polyethene=`28kg`
