    When 32.25 g of ethyl chloride is subjected to dehydrohalogenation reaction the yield of the alkene formed is 50%. The mass of the product formed is: (atomic mass of chlorine is 35.5)

    A) 14 g                                       

    B) 28 g

    C) 64.5 g                   

    D)         56 g

    E) 7g

    Correct Answer: A

    Solution :

    \[{{C}_{2}}{{H}_{5}}Cl\xrightarrow[{}]{dehydroha\log enation}{{C}_{2}}{{H}_{4}}\] \[(24+5+35.5)\]                 \[(24+4)\] g of\[{{C}_{2}}{{H}_{5}}Cl\]forms\[=28\text{ }g\text{ }{{C}_{2}}{{H}_{4}}\] \[\therefore \]\[32.25\text{ }g\text{ }of\text{ }{{C}_{2}}{{H}_{5}}Cl\] will form\[=\frac{28}{64.5}\times 32.25\] \[=14\,g\,{{C}_{2}}{{H}_{4}}.\]
