Ch. 4, #124. When solutions of silver nitrate and sodium carbonate are mixed, solid silver
carbonate is formed and sodium nitrate remains in solution. If a solution containing 12.43 g
of sodium carbonate is mixed with a solution containing 8.37 g silver nitrate, how many
grams of the four species are present after the reaction is complete?
First write a balanced equation:
Na2CO3 +
2 AgNO3
2 NaNO3 +
Ag2CO3
105.99 g/mol
AgNO3
169.87 g/mol
NaNO3
84.99 g/mol
Ag2CO3
275.75 g/mol
Compute the moles of sodium carbonate and silver nitrate at the start of reaction:
12.43 g
2 H2SO4
If 200. g SO2, 85 g O2, and 66 g H2O are mixed and the reaction proceeds to completion,
which reactant is limiting, how many grams of H2SO4 are produced, and how many grams of
the other two reactants are left over?
First, determine the formula weight for all of the compounds:
SO2
__________ g/mol
O2
__________ g/mol
H2O
__________ g/mol
H2SO4
__________ g/mol
SO2:
O2:
H2O:
Determine the identity of the limiting reactant (i.e., using the stoichiometric coefficients,
which reactant will run out first).
__________
Use limiting reactant to calculate how many moles of H2SO4 are produced.
__________ mol H2SO4
Use formula weight to calculate number of grams of H2SO4 produced.
__________ g H2SO4
Calculate moles of nonlimiting reactants used (i.e., use stoichiometric coefficients).
Subtract the number of moles used from the initial moles of each reactant (note: the number
of moles used for the limiting reactant is the same as the initial number of moles because
reaction proceeds to completion)
Convert moles left over for nonlimiting reactants to grams using formula weights.
