1.Formation of polyethylene from calcium carbide takes place as follows:CaC2+2H2O→Ca(OH)2+C2H2\text{CaC}_2 + 2\text{H}_2\text{O} \rightarrow \text{Ca(OH)}_2 + \text{C}_2\text{H}_2CaC2+2H2O→Ca(OH)2+C2H2C2H2+H2→C2H4\text{C}_2\text{H}_2 + \text{H}_2 \rightarrow \text{C}_2\text{H}_4C2H2+H2→C2H4nC2H4→(−CH2−CH2−)nn\text{C}_2\text{H}_4 \rightarrow (-\text{CH}_2-\text{CH}_2-)_nnC2H4→(−CH2−CH2−)nThe amount of polyethylene obtained from 64.1 kg of CaC2\text{CaC}_2CaC2 isa.7 kgb.14 kgc.21 kgd.28 kgLogin to continueOnly logged in users canattempt or see the solution.
