Ethanol is produced industrially by the reaction of ethylene with water in the presence of an acid catalyst. How many grams of ethanol are produced from 7.24 mol of ethylene? Assume that excess water is present. $\mathrm{C}_{2} \mathrm{H}_{4}(\mathrm{g})+\mathrm{H}_{2} \mathrm{O}(\ell) \longrightarrow \mathrm{C}_{2} \mathrm{H}_{6} \mathrm{O}(\ell)$ |
