- Additional Activities Ethylene, a colorless gas with the formula C,Ha is formed from the reaction of calcium carbide with excess water. This gas is a plant hormone which is responsible for the ripening of fruits. It is also a combustible gas. Assuming that the reaction is complete, how many grams of water is produced when 56 grams of ethylene gas reacts with excess oxygen gas? (MMrthylenej: 26 g/mol] (MMwater): 18 g/mol). Write your answers in a separate sheet of paper. Solution:arrow_forwardCombustion reactions involve reacting a substance with oxygen. When compounds containing carbon and hydrogen are combusted, carbon dioxide and water are the products. Using the enthalpies of combustion for C4H4 (– 2341 kJ/mol), C4H3 (- 2755 kJ/mol), and H2 (- 286 kJ/mol), calculate AH for the reaction.
