Calcium carbide reacts with water, , and the acetylene is then burnt completely, . Starting with of pure (Ca = 40, C = 12, O = 16, H = 1; at STP), which of the following statements is/are correct?

  1. AThe obtained on complete combustion is at STP.
  2. BThe mass of formed in the first step is .
  3. CThe oxygen needed to burn all of the acetylene is at STP.
  4. DThe acetylene liberated in the first step occupies at STP.

Answer: B, C, D

mol, giving mol ( L) and mol ( g/mol, g). Burning needs mol ( L) and gives mol ( L), not L.
