50% of the reagent is used for dehydrohalogenation of \(6.45 gm CH _3 CH _2 Cl\) what will be the weight of the main product obtained ?
[At. mass of \(H , C\) and Cl are 1, 12 and \(35.5 gm / mol ^{-1}\) respectively]

  1. A 0.7 gm
  2. B 1.4 gm
  3. C 2.8 gm
  4. D 5.6 gm
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(B) 1.4 gm

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

\(M_{CH_3CH_2Cl} = 2(12) + 5(1) + 35.5 = 64.5 \text{ gm/mol}\) \(n_{CH_3CH_2Cl} = 6.45 \text{ gm} / 64.5 \text{ gm/mol} = 0.1 \text{ mol}\)
