Reference no: EM13226111

Ethanol (CH3CH2OH), the intoxicant in alcoholic beverages, is also used to make other organic compounds. In concentrated sulfuric acid, ethanol forms diethyl ether and water

In a side reaction, some ethanol forms ethylene and water:

If 50.0 g of ethanol yields 35.9 g of diethyl ether, what is the percent yield of diethyl ether?

If 45.0% of the ethanol that did not produce the ether reacts by the side reaction, what mass (g) of ethylene is produced?
