Acetylene gas (C2H2) is used in welding torches. When it reacts with oxygen, it produces carbon dioxide (CO2) and steam (H2O). The reaction can be described by the equation:  

2C2H2 + 5O2 ➔ 4CO2 + 2H2O. How much mass of C2H2  is needed to react with 68.1 g of O2 to produce 75.0 g of CO2 and 15.35 g of steam?
