Question 96

The equation shows the industrial hydration of ethene to produce ethanol.

C2H4+H2O→C2H5OH \text{C}_2\text{H}_4 + \text{H}_2\text{O} \rightarrow \text{C}_2\text{H}_5\text{OH} C2​H4​+H2​O→C2​H5​OH

Calculate the maximum mass of ethanol that could be produced from 112 tonnes of ethene, C2H4\text{C}_2\text{H}_4C2​H4​. (relative formula masses: C2H4=28\text{C}_2\text{H}_4 = 28C2​H4​=28, C2H5OH=46\text{C}_2\text{H}_5\text{OH} = 46C2​H5​OH=46)
