4. Calcium carbide reacts with water to form acetylene, a gas used in welding. How many KJ of heat are evolved in the reaction of 3.50 kg of CaC2 with 1.25 L of H2O? (Ans:-4440KJ) CaC₂(s) + 2H₂O(1) C2H2(g) + Ca(OH)2(s) AH -128.0 KJ/mol (Strategy: this is a limiting reagent problem. a) convert kg of CaC2 to g and then to mols; b) find the amount of energy released using AH; c) convert L of H2O to kg and then to g of H2O and find mols; d) find the amount of energy released using AH; the lower amount of energy released is the correct answer).
