Acetylene is hydrogenated to form ethane. the feed to the reactor contains 1.50 mol h2/mol c2h2. (a) calculate the stoichiometric reactant ratio (mol h2 react/mol c2h2 react) and the yield ratio (kmol c2h6 formed/kmol h2 react). (b) determine the limiting reactant and calculate the percentage by which the other reactant is in excess. (c) calculate the mass feed rate of hydrogen (kg/s) required to produce 4 106 metric tons of ethane per year, assuming that the reaction goes to completion and that the process operates for 24 hours a day, 300 days a year. (d) there is a definite drawback to running with one reactant in excess rather than feeding the reactants in stoichiometric proportion. what is it? [hint: in the process of part (c), what does the reactor effluent consist of and what will probably have to be done before the product ethane can be sold or used? ]

Note that 2 mol dm⁻³ = 2 mol/(dm³)outline: we're given the concentration of hcl, which is  2 mol dm⁻³ (cubic meters in the denominator can represent volume, so i know this is concentration). we're an amount of calcium carbonate caco₃, which is 5 g. we're presented with a chemical equation which includes caco₃ and hcl. we are told to find the volume of hcl. from what we see so far, this seems to be a stoichiometry  problem. we'll have to use the given information about calcium carbonate to find the amount of moles of hcl needed to fully react with calcium carbonate. then we'll have information about the moles of hcl and the concentration of hcl; that will be enough to figure out volume according to the formula concentration = moles / volume.======all the answer choices are not in dm.convert the given concentration so that it uses cm⁻³.we can use conversion factors. we have to cube our conversion factors so that dimensional analysis works.we can convert to meters first, using the fact that     10 dm = 1 m  ⇔ 10³ dm³ = 1 m³then we use the fact that     10² cm = 1 m ⇔ (10² cm)³ = (1 m)³ ⇔ 10⁶ cm³ = 1 m³so converting:     now we have to find the moles of hydrochloric  acid neededfind the moles of calcium carbonate. we have to find the molar mass of calcium carbonate, caco₃, which can be found by    molar mass = (mass ca) + (mass c) + 3(mass o)    = 40 + 12 + 3(16)    = 100 g/molconvert the given 5 g to moles:     mol caco₃ = 5 g caco₃ * 1 mol/(100 g) = 0.05 mol caco₃use stoichiometry (ratios) to figure out the moles of hcl needed. ratio wise, there's 2 hcls for every caco₃, so use dimensional analysis    mol hcl = mol caco₃ * (2 mol hcl) / (1 mol caco₃)    = 0.05 mol hcl * 2    = 0.1 mol hcl  we have 0.1 mol hcl and concentration of hcl (0.002 mol/cm³).we need to find volumesince concentration = moles / volume, rearrange to get     volume = moles / concentration    volume = 0.1 mol / (0.002 mol/cm³)    volume = 50 cm³
