Question 18

Propene reacts with steam to produce propanol.

C3H6+H2O→C3H7OH \text{C}_3\text{H}_6 + \text{H}_2\text{O} \rightarrow \text{C}_3\text{H}_7\text{OH} C3​H6​+H2​O→C3​H7​OH

Calculate the maximum mass of propanol, C3H7OH\text{C}_3\text{H}_7\text{OH}C3​H7​OH, that can be produced when 2.1 kg of propene, C3H6\text{C}_3\text{H}_6C3​H6​, reacts with excess steam.

(relative atomic masses: H=1\text{H} = 1H=1, C=12\text{C} = 12C=12, O=16\text{O} = 16O=16; relative molecular mass of propene, C3H6=42\text{C}_3\text{H}_6 = 42C3​H6​=42)
