Question

$Be_2C +H_2O \rightarrow BeO +X$
$CaC_2 + H_2O \rightarrow Ca(OH)_2 + Y$
$Mg_2C_3 + H_2O \rightarrow Mg(OH)_2 + Z$
$X, Y$ and $Z$ are respectively

• A. $CH_4, C_2H_2, C_3H_8$
• B. $CH_4, C_2H_6, C_3H_8$
• C. $CH_4, C_2H_2, C_3H_4$
• D. $C_2H_2, C_2H_6, C_3H_4$

Answer 1

Answer: (C)

$Be _2 C +2 H _2 O \longrightarrow 2 BeO + CH _4$
$CaC _2+2 H _2 O \longrightarrow Ca ( OH )_2+ C _2 H _2$
$Mg _2 C _3+4 H _2 O \longrightarrow 2 Mg ( OH )_2+ C _3 H _4$
