Question

U r given ethanol concentrated sulphuric acid and small piece of sodium metal using the chemicals how do u prepare 1 hydrogen 2 ethane gas

Answer 1

$\bold \underline \huge {ANSWER}$

$Compounds given$
$\implies Ethanol$
$\implies Sodium metal$
$\implies Concentrated sulphuric acid$

$\bold{Prepration}$

1)-HYDROGEN

◼To prepare hydrogen by ethanol and sodium metal reacts with each other at room temperature to give out hydrogen gas forming sodium ethoxide.

EQUATION :-

$2C_2H_5OH +2Na \longrightarrow 2C_2H_5ONa + H_2$

2)-ETHANE

◼To prepare ethane by ethanol it's heated at at the presence of copper tube as catalyst with the temperature being 200 degrees and pressure is 100 atmos.

EQUATION :--

${C_2H_5OH \longrightarrow 2C_2H_6 ± O_2}$
