When 28.0 g of acetylene reacts with hydrogen, 24.5 g of ethane is produced. What is the percent yield of C2H6 for the reaction?

Answer:
Explanation:
Hello.
In this case, since no information about the reacting hydrogen is given, we can assume that it completely react with the 28.0 g of acetylene to yield ethane. In such a way, via the 1:1 mole ratio between acetylene (molar mass = 26 g/mol) and ethane (molar mass = 30 g/mol), we compute the yielded grams, or the theoretical yield of ethane as shown below:
Hence, by knowing that the percent yield is computed via the actual yield (24.5 g) over the theoretical yield, we obtain:
Best regards.

In this molecule two Nitrogen atoms attached to each other through a double bond are further attached to one one Hydrogen atom. Also, each Nitrogen atom carries one non-binding electron pair (Lone Pair) (Highlighted RED).
Result:
Option-C (<span>each nitrogen has one nonbinding electron pair) is the correct answer.</span>
