Question

ANSWER:

The balanced equation is :

C2H4 + Cl2 ------------------> C2H4Cl2

As per stiochiometry of the reaction 1 mole of Cl2 is required to react with one mole of C2H4 to form one mole of the product C2H4Cl2.

No. of moles of C2H4 = mass of C2H4 / Molar mass of C2H4 = 14.18g / 28.0g = 0.506 moles

Similarly

No. of moles of Cl2 = 14.18 / 70.9 = 0.2 moles

Since moles of chlorine is less than required ( to react with ethene , 0.506) , it will act as limitting reagent i.e the amount of product formed will be determined by chlorine.

Since one mole of chlorine forms one mole of product (C2H4Cl2) , 0.2 moles of Cl2 should form 0.2 moles of the product. This is called theoretical yield.

Mass of the product expected = theoretical yield = Molar mass of the product X moles of the product expected

Theoretical yield = 98.9 X 0.2 = 19.78g

Mass of the product formed in the reaction = actual yield = 19.00g

Pecent yield = (Actual yield / theoretical yield) X 100 = (19.00 / 19.78 ) X 100 = 96.05%
