When calcium carbide (CaC2) comes into contact with water, it produces ethyne (C2H2) according to this equation: CaC2(s) + 2H2O(l) → C2H2(g) + Ca(OH)2(s). Suppose this reaction takes place in a sealed container in which the gas occupies a volume of 1.50 liters. The container is kept at a temperature of 0°C. If 5.18 grams of calcium carbide reacts with excess water, what is the partial pressure of the ethyne gas produced, in atmospheres? Answer: 1.21
