Question

For the reaction C + 2H2 - CH2, how many moles of hydrogen are required to produce

19.26 mol of methane, CHA?
Select one:
O a. 19.26
O b. 38.52
O c. 15.0
O d. 24.7

Answer 1

the answer is 38.52 moles of hydrogen

Answer 2

Answer: 38.52 moles of hydrogen will be required to produce 19.26 mol of methane

Step-by-step explanation:

To calculate the moles :

`\text{Moles of solute}=\frac{\text{given mass}}{\text{Molar Mass}}`

`\text{Moles of} CH_4=19.26moles`

The balanced chemical reaction is:

`C+2H_2\rightarrow CH_4`

According to stoichiometry :

1 mole of
`CH_4` is produced by = 2 moles of
`H_2`

Thus 19.26 moles of
`CH_4` will be produced by =
`(2)/(1)* 19.26=38.52moles` of
`H_2`

Thus 38.52 moles of hydrogen will be required to produce 19.26 mol of methane
