Chapter 4: Quantities of Reactants and Products 121 Chapter 4: Quantities of Reactants and Products Review Questions 1. A balanced chemical equation indicates the relative amounts of reactants and products so that the number of atoms of each element in the reactants equals the number of atoms of the same elements in the products. 2. Define the problem: Given the equation for a reaction, find the related moles, molecules, and masses of the reactants and products. Develop a plan: The stoichiometric coefficients (the numbers in front of the molecules’ formulas) in the balanced equation can be interpreted as the related number of moles or the related number of molecules. The molar mass of each molecule is multiplied by the number of moles of that molecule represented in the equation to find its mass in grams. Execute the plan: 3 H2(g) + N2(g) 2 NH3(g) The stoichiometric coefficients are 3 for H2, 1 for N2, and 2 for NH3. (Note: Molar masses need only be precise enough to give two decimal places in the calculated masses, comparable to the precision in the given mass of NH3.) H2 N2 NH3(g) 3 mol 1 mol 2 mol 3 molecules 1 molecule 2 molecules 3 mol × (2.02g/mol) = 6.06 g 1 mol × (28.02g/mol) = 28.02 g 34.08 g Check your answers: The conservation of mass says that the masses of the reactants must add up to the masses of the products. 6.06 g + 28.02 g = 34.08 g. This looks right. 3. The absolute quantity of each of the reactants is variable and ultimately controlled by the experimenter. The reactants could be present in any relative quantities, though they only react with each other according to the balanced chemical equation. In most cases, that means that one or more of the reactants will be left over when the reaction stops, since it eventually runs out of at least one of the reactants. If, however, the relative quantities of reactants are identical to the relative quantities required by the balanced chemical equation, then the reactants will all run out simultaneously. This special condition is noted by saying that “the reactants were present in stoichiometric amounts.” 4. Define the problem: Given the equation for a reaction, write all the stoichiometric factors represented by it. Develop a plan: The stoichiometric factors are ratios describing two related quantities. Take each component of the reaction and relate it one by one to the other three components of the reaction, then put each pair-wise relationship in unit factor form. Execute the plan: 3 MgO(s) + 2 Fe(s) Fe2O3(s) + 3 Mg(s) 3 mol MgO reacts with 2 mol Fe to form 1 mol Fe2O3 and 3 moles Mg. 122 Chapter 4: Quantities of Reactants and Products 3 mol MgO , 1 mol Fe2 O3 3 mol MgO , 2 mol Fe 3 mol MgO 1 mol MgO or 3 mol Mg 1 mol Mg 2 mol Fe reacts with 3 mol MgO to form 1 mol Fe2O3 and 3 moles Mg. 2 mol Fe , 1 mol Fe2 O3 2 mol Fe , 3 mol MgO 2 mol Fe 3 mol Mg 1 mol Fe2O3 is formed with 3 moles Mg when 2 mol Fe reacts with 3 mol MgO. 1 mol Fe2 O3 , 3 mol Mg 1 mol Fe2 O3 , 2 mol Fe 1 mol Fe2 O3 3 mol MgO 3 moles Mg are formed with 1 mol Fe2O3 when 2 mol Fe reacts with 3 mol MgO. 3 mol Mg , 1 mol Fe2 O3 3 mol Mg , 2 mol Fe 3 mol Mg 1 mol Mg or 3 mol MgO 1 mol MgO Check your answers: With four different chemicals in this equation we can have 4 × 4 pairs. Since it is not important to relate a molecule to itself, that reduces the number of different pairs by 4. That means we should have (4 × 4) – 4 = 12 stoichiometric factors, and that’s how many we have. 5. If reactants are combined in stoichiometric quantities, they will both run out at the same time. Therefore, all their atoms and the sum of their masses will be present in the lone product, CO2, according to the law of conservation of mass. 10.0 g + 26.6 g = 36.6 g CO2 is produced. Check your answer: Though it is not necessary, we could check this by using the molar mass to calculate the moles of C or O2 used. Then use the stoichiometry of the balanced equation (C + O2 CO2) to find the moles of product. Then find the grams using the molar mass of CO2. 10.0 g C × 6. 1 mol C 1 mol CO 2 44.0095 g CO2 × × = 36.6 g CO2 12.0107 g C 1 mol C 1 mol CO2 Define the problem: Given a reaction, determine the conversion factors needed to convert between grams and mole, grams and grams, and moles and grams. Develop a plan: The molar mass and stoichiometric coefficients can be used for the appropriate unit factors. Execute the plan: 2 Fe(s) + 3 Cl2(g) 2 FeCl3(s) To take the grams of Cl2 to moles of Cl2, use the molar mass of Cl2: g Cl2 × 1 mol Cl 2 = mol Cl2 70.906 g Cl 2 To take the moles of Cl2 to moles FeCl3, use the stoichiometry of the balanced equation: mol Cl2 × 2 mol FeCl 3 = mol FeCl3 3 mol Cl 2 Chapter 4: Quantities of Reactants and Products 123 To take the grams of FeCl3 to moles of FeCl3, use the molar mass of FeCl3: g FeCl3 × 1 mol FeCl 3 = mol FeCl3 162.204 g FeCl 3 To take the grams of Cl2 to grams of FeCl3, combine all three factors together: 1 mol Cl 2 2 mol FeCl 3 162.204 g FeCl 3 324.40 g FeCl 3 × × = 70.904 g Cl 2 3 mol Cl 2 1 mol FeCl 3 212.7 g Cl 2 g Cl2 × 324.408 g FeCl 3 = g FeCl3 212.718 g Cl 2 Hence, the scheme looks like this: g Cl 2 324.408 g FeCl 3 212.718 g Cl 2 1 mol Cl 2 70.906 g Cl 2 mol Cl 2 g FeCl 3 1 mol FeCl 3 162.204 g FeCl 3 2 mol FeCl 3 3 mol Cl 2 mol FeCl 3 Check your answers: Going either way around the circuit, the results end up the same. 7. The limiting reactant is the reactant that runs out first. The reaction’s stoichiometry is based on how many reactant molecules are present, not how heavy they are. There are two different reasons why the low mass reactant may not be the limiting reactant. First, the reactant with the smallest mass may be a lightweight element, such as hydrogen. With a low molar mass, the small given mass might still represent a relatively large number of molecules. Second, if the low mass reactant has a relatively small stoichiometric coefficient, then other reactants must be present in larger proportions. Therefore, there is no guarantee that the reactant present with the smallest mass is going to end up being the limiting reactant. 8. A limiting reactant needs to be a reactant. The products are produced in the reaction; therefore they do not qualify. 9. The limiting reactant determines the theoretical yield. If nothing goes wrong and all the reactants that can react do react, then the quantity of limiting reactant should prescribe the quantity of product that will form. The actual yield will only be related to the limiting reactant in that it represents an upper limit to that quantity. Stoichiometry 10. Define the problem: Given the equation for the reaction, find the related molecules, atoms, moles, masses of each of the reactants and products, and total masses of the reactants and the products. Develop a plan: The stoichiometric coefficients (the numbers in front of the molecules’ formulas) in the balanced equation can be interpreted as the related number of molecules or the related number of moles of 124 Chapter 4: Quantities of Reactants and Products molecules. The molar mass of each molecule is multiplied by the number of moles of that molecule represented in the equation to find its mass in grams. Add up the mass of KOH and HCl for the total reactant mass. Add up the mass of KCl and H2O for the total product mass. Execute the plan: KOH(aq) + HCl(aq) KCl(aq) + 6 H2O(l) The stoichiometric coefficients are 1 for KOH(aq), 1 for HCl(aq), 1 for KCl(aq) and 1 for H2O(l). No. molecules No. atoms No. moles of molecules Mass KOH HCl KCl H2O 1 1 1 1 1 K, 1 O and 1 H 1 H and 1 Cl 1 K and 1 Cl 2 H and 1 O 1 1 1 1 1 mol × (56.1056 g/mol) = 56.1056 g 1 mol × (36.4609 g/mol) = 224.00 g 1 mol × (74.5513 g/mol) = 176.04 g 1 mol × (18.0152 g/mol) = 108.12 g Total mass of reactants 92.5665 g Total mass of products – – 92.5665 g Check your answers: A properly balanced equation has the same numbers of atoms of each type (1K, 1 O, 1 Cl, and 2 H) in the products and reactants. The law of conservation of mass says that masses of the reactants must add up to the masses of the products, 92.5665 g. 11. Define the problem: Given the equation for the reaction, find the related molecules, atoms, moles, masses of each of the reactants and products, and total masses of the reactants and t he products. Develop a plan: The stoichiometric coefficients (the numbers in front of the molecules’ formulas) in the balanced equation can be interpreted as the related number of molecules or the related number of moles of molecules. The molar mass of each molecule is multiplied by the number of moles of that molecule represented in the equation to find its mass in grams. Add up the mass of C2H6 and O2 for the total reactant mass. Add up the mass of CO2 and H2O for the total product mass. Execute the plan: 2 C2H6(g) + 7 O2(g) 4 CO2(g) + 6 H2O(g) The stoichiometric coefficients are 2 for C2H6, 7 for O2, 4 for CO2, and 6 for H2O. No. molecules No. atoms No. moles of molecules Mass C2H6 O2 CO2 H2O 2 7 4 6 4 C and 12 H 14 O 4 C and 8 O 12 H and 6 O 2 7 4 6 2 mol × 7 mol × 4 mol × 6 mol × Chapter 4: Quantities of Reactants and Products (30.0688 g/mol) = 60.16 g Total mass of reactants (31.9988 g/mol) = 224.00 g (44.0095 g/mol) = 176.04 g 284.16 g Total mass of products 125 (18.0152 g/mol) = 108.12 g – – 284.16 g Check your answers: A properly balanced equation has the same numbers of atoms of each type (4 C, 12 H, and 14 O) in the products and reactants. The law of conservation of mass says that masses of the reactants must add up to the masses of the products, 284.16 g. This looks right. 12. Define the problem: Given the balanced equation for a reaction, identify the stoichiometric coefficients in this equation, and relate the quantity of products to reactants and vice versa. Develop a plan: (a) The law of conservation of mass says that the total mass of the reactants is the same as the total mass of the products. (b) The stoichiometric coefficients are the numbers in front of each formula in the equation. (c) The stoichiometric coefficients can be interpreted as the related number of reactants. Use the formula stoichiometry of O2 to find the number of molecules that reacted. Use equation stoichiometry to find out how many atoms of Mg reacted with that many O2 molecules. Execute the plan: First, balance the equation: 2 Mg(s) + O2(g) 2 MgO(g) (a) The total mass of product, MgO, is 1.00 g. The total mass of the reactants (mass of Mg plus mass of O2) that reacted must also be 1.00 g, due to the conservation of mass. (b) The stoichiometric coefficients are 2 for Mg, 1 for O2, and 2 for MgO. (c) 50 atoms of oxygen make up 25 molecules of O2, since there are two O atoms in each molecule. Since the stoichiometry is 1:1, that means 50 atoms of Mg were needed to react with this much oxygen. Check your answers: Though it is an unnecessary calculation, we can check the answer to part (a) by calculating the masses of Mg and O2 that reacted to make 1.00 gram of MgO, 1.00 g MgO× 1 mol MgO 1 mol Mg 24.3050 g Mg × × = 0.603 g Mg 40.3044 g MgO 1 mol MgO 1 mol Mg 1.00 g MgO× 1 mol MgO 1 mol O2 31.9988 g O 2 × × = 0.397 g O2 40.3044 g MgO 2mol MgO 1 mol O 2 then adding them up: 0.603 g + 0.397 g = 1.000 g. This answer looks right. 13. Define the problem: Given the balanced equation for a reaction and the mass of one reactant, determine how may grams of a product will be formed and how many grams of the other reactant will be required. Develop a plan: The stoichiometric coefficients can be interpreted as the related number of moles of reactants and products. Use the molar masses to convert mass to moles and the equation stoichiometry to relate moles. Execute the plan: 1.0 g C12 H22 O11 × 1 mol C12 H 22O11 12 mol CO2 44.0095 g CO2 × × = 1.5 g CO2 342.2956 g C 12H22O11 1 mol C12H 22O11 1 mol CO2 126 Chapter 4: Quantities of Reactants and Products 1.0 g C12 H22 O11 × 1 mol C12 H 22O11 12 mol O 2 31.9988 g O2 × × = 1.1 g O2 342.2956 g C 12H22O11 1 mol C 12H 22O11 1 mol O2 Check your answers: The sum of the reactants masses should equal the sum of the product masses: 1.0 g C12 H22 O11 × 1 mol C12 H 22O11 11 mol H2O 18.0152 g H2O × × = 0.58 g H2O 342.2956 g C 12H22O11 1 mol C12H 22O11 1 mol H2 O Adding them: 1.0 g + 1.1 g = 2.1 g, and 1.5 g + 0.58 g = 2.1 g. Chapter 4: Quantities of Reactants and Products 127 14. Define the problem: Write a balanced equation for a combination reaction. Develop a plan: Use appropriate numbers in front of each reactant and product (stoichiometric coefficients) to balance the equation. Execute the plan: 4 Fe(s) + 3 O2(g) 2 Fe2O3(s) Check your answer: 4 Fe & 6 O 15. In the first box, three A 2 molecules are combined with six B atoms. After the reaction occurs, the box contains only six AB molecules. That means symbolically: 3 A2 + 6 B 6 AB Therefore, the equation given in (b), A 2 + 2 B between reactants and products. 16. 2 AB, shows the right stoichiometric relationship 2 × 4 A2 + 2 × 3 B 2 × 1 B3A 8 8 A2 + 6 B 2 B3A 8 17. Balance Cl atoms (put a “3” in front of Cl2 and a “2” in front of SbCl3, so each side of the equation has 6 Cl atoms, 3 × 2 = 2 × 3 = 6). Balance Sb atoms (put a 2 in front of Sb, so each side of the equation has 2 Sb atoms): 2 Sb + 3 Cl2 2 SbCl3. Box (a) represents the correct reactants. Box (c) represents the correct products.

In addition, the calculation in (c) proved that the initial mass of Al was larger than required to react with all of the Cl2. The sum of the masses of the reactants that reacted (4.05 g + 1.03 g = 5.08 g) equals the mass of the product produced (5.08 g). These answers make sense. 57.

Find the mass of the Fe from the limiting reactant: 25 .0 mol Fe × 55 .845 g Fe 1 kg Fe × = 1.40 kg Fe 1 mol Fe 1000 g Fe Check your answer: The reactants are present in the same mass quantities, but Fe2O3 has a larger molar mass. So, it makes sense that it is the limiting reactant. The mass of iron should be smaller than the mass of iron (III) oxide. These numbers look right. 62. Define the problem: Given a balanced chemical equation and the masses of both reactants, determine the maximum amount of product that can be produced.

Find the mass of the C9H8O4 from the moles of limiting reactant: 0.724 mol C 9H 8O 4 × 180.1571 g C9 H 8O 4 = 130. g C 9H 8O 4 1 mol C 9H 8O 4 Check your answers: The reactants are present in the same mass quantities, but C7H6O3 has a larger molar mass and needs two moles rather than just one mole to react. So, it makes sense that it is the limiting reactant. Percent Yield 63. Define the problem: Given the balanced chemical equation, the mass of the limiting reactant and the actual yield, determine the theoretical yield and the percent yield. Develop a plan: First, calculate the theoretical yield by determining the maximum mass of product that could have been made from the given quantity of reactant: Take the mass of the limiting reactant and convert it to moles.

Execute the plan 36.7 g CaO actual ×100 % = 56.0 % yield 65.5 g CaO theoretical Check your answer: A little more than half the maximum quantity of quicklime was produced, so it makes sense that the percent yield is a little more than 50 %. This number looks right. 66. Define the problem: Given the balanced chemical equation, the mass of the limiting reactant and the actual yield, determine the percent yield. Develop a plan: First, we need to calculate the theoretical yield. We get this by determining the maximum amount of product that could have been made from the given quantities of reactant: Take the mass of the limiting reactant and convert it to moles. Then use stoichiometry to find the moles of product. Then convert to grams using molar mass.

This number looks right. 68. Define the problem: Given the balanced chemical equation, the desired mass of the product, and the percent yield, determine the amount of limiting reactant that must be used. Develop a plan: Interpret the percent yield as the relationship between the actual grams and theoretical grams. Use that relationship to find the theoretical yield mass of the product. Then use stoichiometry to find the moles of limiting reactant. Then, using molar mass, convert to actual grams of reactant needed. Execute the plan: The 51 % percent yield tells us the following: To make 51 grams of S2Cl2, we need to have enough limiting reactant to make 1.19 grams of S2Cl2. 100. g S 2Cl 2 1.19 g S 2Cl 2 actual× = 2.3 g S 2 Cl 2 51 g S 2 Cl 2 actual Use this mass of product to determine what mass of limiting reactant to use. 2.3 g S 2Cl 2 × 1 mol S 2Cl 2 3 mol SCl 2 102.971 g SCl 2 × × = 5.3 g SCl 2 135.036 g S 2Cl 2 1 mol S 2Cl 2 1 mol S 2Cl 2 Check your answer: The yield suggests that we need to try to make about twice as much, so the 2.3 grams makes sense. The stoichiometry is 3:1, so it makes sense that a larger mass of SCl2 is needed than the mass of S2Cl2 formed. These numbers look right. 69. Define the problem: Given the balanced chemical equation, the desired mass of the product, and the percent yield, determine the amount of limiting reactant that must be used.

The empirical formula is K2 Cr2 O7 . Chapter 4: Quantities of Reactants and Products 157 Check your answer: The percent by mass of oxygen in the compound is somewhat greater than the percent by mass of potassium or chromium. Since K and Cr atoms weigh more than oxygen atoms, it makes sense that there are several O atom per K and Cr atom present in this formula. This formula coincides with potassium dichromate, a common ionic compound. 72.

General Questions 76. Define the problem: Given the unbalanced chemical equation and the mass of the limiting reactant, determine the mass of a product that can be isolated. Develop a plan: Balance the equation. Use the molar mass of the reactant to find moles of reactant, then use the stoichiometry of the equation to determine moles of product, then use the molar mass of the product to get the mass of the product. Execute the plan: Select a balance order: H, O, N, Cu 2 NH3 + 3 CuO N2 + 3 Cu + 3 H2O Check the balance: 2 N, 6 H, 3 Cu, 3 O 26.3 g NH 3 × 1 mol NH 3 1 mol N2 28.0134 g N 2 × × = 21.6 g N 2 17.0304 g NH 3 2 mol NH 3 1 mol N2 Check your answer: It makes sense that the initial mass of NH3 is nearly the same as the mass of N2 created, since the NH3 molar mass is about half that of N2 and the stoichiometry is 2:1. 77. Define the problem: Given the mass of the only reactant, the formula of the reactant with one element unknown, a balanced equation showing its decomposition, and the mass and identity of one of the products, determine the identity of the unknown element from a given list. Develop a plan: Use the molar mass of the product to find moles of product, then use the stoichiometry of the equation to determine moles of reactant. Then divide the grams of reactant by the calculated moles of reactant to determine the molar mass of the reactant. Subtract the molar masses of the known elements in the compound to determine the molar mass of the unknown element. Compare the molar masses of the elements on the list and find the one that most closely matches it. Execute the plan: Use mass of CO2 to find moles of MCO3 1 mol CO 2 1 mol MCO 3 −3 0.376 g CO2 × × = 8.54 ×10 mol MCO 3 44.0095 g CO 2 1 mol CO 2 Divide given mass by moles: 1.056 g MCO 3 g = 124 = molar mass of MCO3 −3 mol 8.54 × 10 mol MCO 3 Subtract the molar mass of C and three times the molar mass of O from this molar mass to find the molar mass of M: 124 g MCO 3 12.0107 g C 3× 15.9994 g O – – = 64 g M mol MCO 3 mol MCO 3 mol MCO 3 The element in the given list with the closest molar mass to 64 g/mol is (b) Cu. Check your answer: The molar mass of Cu (63.5 g/mol) is 64. None of the others in the list (Ni at 58.7 g/mol, Zn at 65.4 g/mol, or Ba at 137.2 g/mol) are this close, though within ±1 g/mol Zinc almost qualifies. If we Chapter 4: Quantities of Reactants and Products 161 carry more decimal places than strictly allowed by the rules of significant figures, the molar mass of MCO3 is 123.65 g/mol and the molar mass of M is 63.6 g/mol. This might make us feel better selecting Cu, although these additional significant figures are actually unknown with the limited data provided. 78. Define the problem: Given the balanced chemical equation and the masses of both reactants, determine the maximum yield of a product in grams. Develop a plan: Find the limiting reactant by determining moles of a product made from each reactant. Then using the molar mass of the product, determine the mass from the moles produced by the limiting reactant. Execute the plan: 365 g UO3 × 1 mol UO3 6 mol UF4 × = 1.28 mol UF4 286.0271 g UO3 6 mol UO3 1 mol BrF3 6 mol UF4 365 g BrF3 × × = 2.00 mol UF4 136.8992 g BrF3 8 mol BrF3 UO3 is the limiting reactant, since fewer moles of UF4 are produced from the UO3 reactant (1.28 mol) than produced from the BrF3 reactant (2.00 mol). Therefore, use 1.28 mol UF4 and the molar mass to determine the grams of UF4 produced: 1.28 mol UF4 × 314.0225 g UF 4 = 401 g UF4 1 mol UF 4 Check your answer: It makes sense that UO3 is the limiting reactant, because the reactants are present in equal masses, and UO3 has a larger molar mass than BrF3. Since the molar mass of the product is somewhat larger than the molar mass of the limiting reactant and their stoichiometry is 1:1, it makes sense that slightly larger mass of product is formed in this reaction. 79. Define the problem: Given the balanced chemical equation and the mass of one reactant and the moles of the other reactant, determine the maximum theoretical mass of a product. Develop a plan: Find the limiting reactant by determining moles of a product made from each reactant.

Therefore, use 0.0416 mol Pt(NH3)2Cl2 and the molar mass to determine the grams of Pt(NH3)2Cl2 produced: 0.0416 mol Pt (NH 3 ) 2 Cl 2 × 300.0448 g Pt(NH 3) 2 Cl 2 = 12.5 g Pt (NH 3 ) 2 Cl 2 1 mol Pt (NH 3 ) 2 Cl 2 162 Chapter 4: Quantities of Reactants and Products Check your answer: It is satisfying that (NH4)2PtCl4 is the limiting reactant, because that reactant contains the expensive platinum metal and the experimenter would want to make sure all of that got used up. Since the molar mass of the product is somewhat smaller than the molar mass of the limiting reactant and their stoichiometry is 1:1, it makes sense that a slightly smaller mass of product is formed in this reaction. 80. Define the problem: Given the balanced chemical equation, the moles of one reactant, and the mass of the other reactant, determine the maximum yield of a product in grams. Develop a plan: Find the limiting reactant by determining moles of a product made from each reactant.

Therefore, use 0.0219 mol B2H6 and the molar mass to determine the grams of B2H6 produced: 0.0205 mol B2 H 6 × 27.6694 g B2 H6 = 0.567 g B 2H 6 1 mol B2 H6 Check your answer: It is satisfying that NaBH4 is the limiting reactant, because that reactant contains the boron element and the experimenter would want to make sure all of that got converted to product. Since the molar mass of the product is somewhat smaller than the molar mass of the limiting reactant and their stoichiometry is 2:1, it makes sense that slightly smaller mass of product is formed in this reaction. 81. Define the problem: Given the mass of a compound, the identity of the elements in the compound, and the identity and masses of all the products produced, determine the empirical formula. Develop a plan: Use the molar mass of the products to find their moles and use the stoichiometry of their formulas to determine the moles of the elements in the compound. Then use a whole-number mole ratio to determine the empirical formula. Execute the plan: The compound is SixOy. Its combustion produced SiO2 and H2O. Use molar mass and formula stoichiometry to determine the moles of Si and H. 1 mol SiO 2 1 mol Si 11.64 g SiO2 × × = 0.1937 mol Si 60.0843 g SiO 2 1 mol SiO 2 6.980 g H 2O × 1 mol H 2O 2 mol H × = 0.7749 mol H 18.0152 g H 2O 1 mol H 2 O Set up mole ratio and simplify by dividing by the smallest number of moles: 0.1937 mol Si : 0.7749 mol H 1 Si : 4.000 H Chapter 4: Quantities of Reactants and Products 163 Use the whole number ratio for the subscripts in the formula. The empirical formula is SiH4. Check your answer: These are not necessary calculations, but we can calculate the masses of each element, Si and H. 0.1937 mol Si × 28.0855 g Si = 5.440 g Si 1 mol Si 0.7749 mol H × 1.0079 g H = 0.7810 g H 1 mol H The sum of these masses (5.440 g + 0.7810 g = 6.221 g) add up to the mass of the original compound (6.22 g), to the given significant figures. This answer makes sense. 82. Define the problem: Given the mass of a compound, the identity of the elements in the compound, the mass of one of the products produced, and the identity of all products produced, determine the empirical formula. Develop a plan: Use the molar mass of the products to find their moles and use the stoichiometry of their formulas to determine the moles of the elements in the compound. Then use a whole-number mole ratio to determine the empirical formula. Execute the plan: The compound is BxHy. Its combustion produced B2O3 and H2O. Use molar mass and formula stoichiometry to determine the moles of B. 1 mol B2O3 2 mol B 0.422 g B2O3 × × = 0.0121 mol B 69.6202 g B2O3 1 mol B 2O 3 Find the mass of B in the compound: 0.0121 mol B × 10.811 g B = 0.131 g B 1 mol B Find the mass of H in the compound, by subtracting the mass of B from the compound sample mass: 0.148 g BxHy – 0.131 g B = 0.017 g H Now, determine moles of H: 0.017 g H × 1 mol H = 0.017 mol H 1.0079 g H Set up mole ratio and simplify by dividing by the smallest number of moles: 0.0121 mol B : 0.017 mol H 1 B : 1.4 H If we multiply by 5, we get a whole-number mole ratio: 5B:7H Use this whole number ratio, the empirical formula is B5H7. However, the significant figures in the calculation are small, so the quantity of H has an uncertainty of ± 0.1. That means it could also really be a ratio of 1 : 1.5 or 1 : 1.33, and the multipliers would be 2 or 3, respectively to give whole-number mole ratios of: 2B:3H They have empirical formulas of B2H3 and B3H4. or 3B:4H 164 Chapter 4: Quantities of Reactants and Products Check your answer: The first sentence of the question gives us the impression that many boron hydride compounds exist. The limited significant figures here do not allow us to rule out any of these three empirical formulas: B5H7, B2H3, or B3H4. 83. Define the problem: Given equal moles of all the reactants, determine the limiting reactant. Given equal masses of all the reactants, determine the limiting reaction. Develop a plan: When the same moles of every reactant is present, the reactant with the largest stoichiometric coefficient is going to be the limiting reactant. In the second part, use the molar mass of each reactant to find their moles, then use the stoichiometry of the reaction to determine the moles of a product formed from each reactant. The reactant that produces the least amount of product is the limiting reactant. Execute the plan: First Part: 5 moles of each reactant is present. The stoichiometric coefficients are: 4 for KOH, 2 for MnO2, 1 for O2 and 1 for Cl2. The reactant with the largest stoichiometric coefficient is KOH. So, KOH is the limiting reactant. Second Part: 5 grams of each reactant is present. Determine the moles of KCl they each form: 5 g KOH × 5 g MnO2 × 1 mol KOH 2 mol KCl × = 0.04 mol KCl 56 .1056 g KOH 4 mol KOH 1 mol MnO2 2 mol KCl × = 0.06 mol KCl 86.9368 g MnO2 2 mol MnO2 1 mol O2 2 mol KCl 5 g O2 × × = 0.3 mol KCl 31.9988 g O2 1 mol O2 1 mol Cl 2 2 mol KCl 5 g Cl 2 × × = 0.1 mol KCl 70.906 g Cl 2 1 mol Cl 2 Only 0.04 mol of HCl is produced from KOH, so the KOH is the limiting reactant here, too. Check your answers: The first part is easy. The reaction says that more moles of KOH are needed that any other reactant, so when equal moles of reactants are present, it runs out first. The differences in molar mass are insufficient to keep the large stoichiometric coefficient for KOH from making it the limiting reactant when equal masses of the reactants are present. These answers make sense. 84. Define the problem: Given equal moles of all the reactants, determine the limiting reactant. Given equal masses of all the reactants, determine the limiting reaction. Develop a plan: When the same moles of every reactant is present, the reactant with the largest stoichiometric coefficient is going to be the limiting reactant. In the second part, use the molar mass of each reactant to find their moles, then use the stoichiometry of the reaction to determine the moles of a product formed from each reactant. The reactant that produces the least amount of product is the limiting reactant. Execute the plan: (a) 10 moles of each reactant is present. The stoichiometric coefficients are: 4 for NaCl, 2 for SO2, 2 for H2O and 1 for O2. The reactant with the largest stoichiometric coefficient is NaCl. So, NaCl is the limiting reactant. Chapter 4: Quantities of Reactants and Products 165 (b) 100 grams of each reactant is present. (note: 100 has just one significant figure) Determine the moles of KCl they each form: 1 mol NaCl 4 mol HCl × = 1.71 mol HCl ≈ 2 mol HCl 58.4428 g NaCl 4 mol NaCl 100 g NaCl × 100 g SO 2 × 100 g H 2O × 1 mol SO 2 4 mol HCl × = 3.12 mol HCl ≈ 3 mol HCl 64.0683 g SO 2 2 mol SO 2 1 mol H2O 4 mol HCl × = 11.1 mol HCl ≈ 10 mol HCl 18.0152 g H2O 2 mol H 2O 1 mol O2 4 mol HCl 100 g O 2 × × = 12.5 mol HCl ≈ 10 mol HCl 31.9988 g O2 1 mol O2 Only 2 mol of HCl is produced from NaCl, so the NaCl is the limiting reactant here, too. Check your answers: (a) The reaction says that more moles of NaCl are needed that any other reactant, so when equal moles of reactants are present, it runs out first. (b) The differences in molar mass are insufficient to keep the large stoichiometric coefficient for NaCl from making it the limiting reactant when equal masses of the reactants are present. These answers make sense. Applying Concepts 85. Two butane molecules react with 13 diatomic oxygen molecules to produce eight carbon dioxide molecules and ten water molecules. Two moles of gaseous butane molecules react with 13 moles of gaseous diatomic oxygen molecules to produce eight moles of gaseous carbon dioxide molecules and ten moles of liquid water molecules. 86. One P4 molecule reacts with six diatomic chlorine molecules to produce four PCl3 molecules. One mole of solid P4 molecules reacts with six moles of gaseous diatomic chlorine molecules to produce four moles of liquid PCl3 molecules. 87. Balance the equation for this reaction: 4 A 2 + AB3 Reactant number of A atoms = 4 × 2 + 1 = 9 Reactant number of B atoms = 3 3 Product number of A atoms = 9 = 3 × 3 Product number of A atoms = 3 = 3 × 1 So, the product molecule has 3 A atoms and 1 B atom. Its formula is A 3B. 4 A 2 + AB3 88. Balance the equation for this reaction: 3 A 2B3 + B3 Reactant number of A atoms = 3 × 2 = 6 3 A 3B 6 Product number of A atoms = 6 = 6 × 1 Reactant number of B atoms = 3 × 3 + 3 = 12 Product number of A atoms = 12 = 6 × 2 So, the product molecule has 1 A atom and 2 B atoms. Its formula is AB2. 3 A 2B3 + B3 6 AB2 Chapter 4: Quantities of Reactants and Products 166 89. Define the problem: Given the moles of all the reactants, determine the limiting reactant and the ions present at the end or the reaction. Develop a plan: Use the stoichiometry of the reaction to determine the moles of a product formed from each reactant. The reactant that produces the least amount of product is the limiting reactant. The excess reactant and the products are present at the end of the reaction. From that information, determine what ions are in the solution after the reaction is complete. 1.5 mol Cu × Execute the plan: 1 mol Cu( NO 3) 2 = 1.5 mol Cu(NO 3) 2 1 mol Cu 4.0 mol AgNO 3 × 1 mol Cu(NO 3 ) 2 = 2.0 mol Cu(NO 3 ) 2 2 mol AgNO 3 Only 1.5 mol Cu(NO3)2 can be formed, so the limiting reactant is Cu and the excess reactant is AgNO3. + 2+ – That means the solution contains: Ag ions, Cu ions, and NO3 ions after the reaction is over. (The question only asked what ions are present not how many.) If we want to know how many, we need to determine the moles of AgNO3 actually reacted: 2 mol AgNO 3 1.5 mol Cu × = 3.0 mol AgNO 3 reacted 1 mol Cu The moles of AgNO3 left = 4.0 mol AgNO3 initial – 3.0 AgNO3 mol reacted = 1.0 mol AgNO3 left + Quantitatively, the solution has 1.0 mol Ag ions, 1.5 mol Cu 2+ ions, and (1.0 mol + 2 × 1.5 mol =) 4.0 mol – NO3 ions. Check your answers: The excess reactant is an ionic compound and one of the products is an ionic compound, so some of the ions present at the beginning are still present when the Cu runs out. The + quantities of Ag ions have dropped, since some of the silver atoms are now part of the Ag solid product. – The quantity of NO3 ions doesn’t change, since neither N nor O are part of the solid product formed. These answers make sense. 90. Define the problem: Given the number of molecules of all the reactants, determine what molecules are present after a reaction is complete and determine the limiting reactant. Develop a plan: Use the stoichiometry of the reaction to determine the molecules of the product formed from each reactant. The reactant that produces the least amount of product is the limiting reactant. The excess reactant and the products are present at the end of the reaction. From that information, determine what figure represents the proper diagram of the post-reaction mixture. Execute the plan: 6 molecules N 2 × 2 molecules NH 3 = 12 molecules NH 3 1 molecules N 2 2 molecules NH 3 12 molecules H 2 × = 8 molecules NH 3 3 molecules H 2 Only 8 molecules NH3 are formed, because the limiting reactant is H2. The excess reactant is N2. Determine the number of molecules of N2 that actually reacted: Chapter 4: Quantities of Reactants and Products 12 molecules H 2 × 167 1 molecules N2 = 4 molecules N 2 reacted 3 molecules H 2 The molecules of N2 left = 6 molecules of N2 initial – 4 molecules of N2 reacted = 2 molecules of N2 left These results indicate that Figure 4 is the right figure, and that (b) is the right statement regarding the limiting reactant: “H2 is the limiting reactant” Check your answers: There are two molecules of N2 left after all the molecules of H2 react, so it makes sense that H 2 is the limiting reactant. The figure shows 8 molecules of NH3 and 2 molecules of N2. These answers make sense. 91. The reactants are six O2 molecules and six CO molecules. The given equation described s 1:2 reaction, so we determine that the CO molecules run out first, after producing six CO2 molecules and using three O2 molecules. That leaves three O2 molecule unreacted: Note: The black circles are carbon, and the white circles are oxygen. 92. Four XY3 molecules are made from two diatomic X2 molecules and six diatomic Y2 molecules. So, symbolically, the reaction is 2 X2 + 6 Y2 reaction is (b) X2 + 3 Y2 4 XY3, and the stoichiometric equation representing that 2 XY3 93. The increase of NaHCO3 causes an obvious increase in the amount of gas produced, as indicated by the larger volume of the balloon in #1 through #4. In #5 and #6, the volume look unchanged, but there are subtle differences in the shape and “droopiness” of the balloon, indicating a possible increase in the pressure inside the balloon. If we use volume alone, then the NaHCO3 limits up to #4, then the acetic acid is the limiting reactant in #5 and #6. If we consider an increase in pressure as an indication of more gas being produced in each balloon, then we would conclude that the NaHCO3 was limiting in every experiment. 94. When masses smaller than 1.2 gram of the metal are added, the metal is the limiting reactant, so the mass of the compound produced is directly proportional to the mass of metal present (shown by the straight line rising up to the right on the graph). More metal makes more products when the mass of metal is less than 1.2 gram. When the mass larger than 1.2 g of metal are added, the bromine is the limiting reactant, so the particular mass of the metal is independent of how much compound is made. Since the amount of bromine is held constant, the mass of compound formed is also a constant (shown by a horizontal line on the graph). Conclusion: When metal mass is less than 1.2 g the metal is the limiting reactant. When the metal mass is greater than 1.2 g the bromine is the limiting reactant. 168 Chapter 4: Quantities of Reactants and Products 95. Define the problem: Given the graph of a product’s mass vs. a metal element reactant’s mass, the identity of the elemental reactants and the information that one compound is formed, determine the empirical formula of the product compound, write the balanced equation for the reaction, and name the product. Develop a plan: The point where the graph levels out is the stoichiometric equivalence point. (See the answer to Question 92 in the Student Solution Manual for details). Assuming 100 % yield, subtract the metal mass from the product mass to get the other reactant’s mass. Use the molar mass of the reactant elements to find their moles. Then use a whole-number mole ratio to determine the empirical formula. Write and balance the equation and name the product. Execute the plan: Estimating the location of the stoichiometric equivalence point, we find that 12.6 grams of compound are made from 2.3 grams of Fe. 12.6 g compound – 2.3 g Fe = 10.3 g Br The compound is a contains only Fe and Br: FeiBrj. 2.3 g Fe × 1 mol Fe = 0.041 mol Fe 55.845 mol Fe 10 .3 g Br × 1 mol Br = 0.13 mol Br 79.904 mol Br Set up mole ratio and simplify by dividing by the smallest number of moles: 0.041 mol Fe : 0.13 mol Br 1 Fe : 3 Br Use the whole number ratio for the subscripts in the formula. The empirical formula is FeBr3. Remembering that bromine is a diatomic liquid element and that iron is a monatomic solid, the equation looks like this: 2 Fe(s) + 3 Br2(l) 2 FeBr3(s) The compound is iron(III) bromide. Check your answers: The approximations that had to be made from the graph provide a wide rage of values, depending on a persons estimations.. However, the result is reasonable, due to the fact that iron has two typical oxidation states, +2 and +3, and that bromine has only one, –1. There is no way the data could support the answer being iron(II) bromide. More Challenging Problems 96. Define the problem: Given the formulas of the reactants and one product and the percent mass of elements in the second product, determine the balanced chemical equation. Develop a plan: Choose a convenient sample mass of product, Fex Oy , such as 100.0 g. Find the mass of Fe and O in the sample, using the given mass percent. Use the molar mass of the elements to find their moles, then use a whole-number mole ratio to determine the empirical formula. Using the formulas of the reactants and products balance the equation. Execute the plan: 100.0 g of .Fex Oy contains 72.3 g Fe and 27.7 g O. 72 .3 g Fe × 1 mol Fe = 1.29 mol Fe 55.845 g Fe 27 .7 g O × 1 mol O = 1.73 mol O 15.9994 g O Set up mole ratio and simplify by dividing by the smallest number of moles: 1.29 mol Fe : 1.73 mol O Chapter 4: Quantities of Reactants and Products 169 1 Fe : 1.34 O Multiply by 3 to get whole numbers: 3 Fe : 4 O Use the whole number ratio for the subscripts in the formula.

Define the problem: Given the percent mass of elements in an organic compound, determine the balanced chemical equation for the combustion reaction. Develop a plan: Choose a convenient sample mass of product, Cx Hy Oz, such as 100.00 g. Find the mass of C and H in the sample, using the given mass percent, then subtract those masses from the total sample mass to get the mass of O. Use the molar mass of the elements to find their moles, then use a whole-number mole ratio to determine the empirical formula. For combustion, use the formula of the organic compound and O2 as reactants and CO2 and H2 O as products, then balance the equation. Execute the plan: 100.00 g of .Cx Hy Oz contains 34.62 g C and 3.88 g H. 100.00 g of .Cx Hy Oz – 34.62 g C – 3.88 g H = 61.50 g O 34 .62 g C× 1 mol C = 2.882 mol C 12.0107 g C 61 .50 g O × 3.88 g H × 1 mol H = 3.85 mol H 1.0079 g H 1 mol O = 3.844 mol O 15.9994 g O Set up mole ratio and simplify by dividing by the smallest number of moles: 2.882 mol C : 3.85 mol H : 3.844 mol O 1 C : 1.336 H : 1.334 O Multiply by 3 to get whole numbers: 3C:4H:4O Use the whole number ratio for the subscripts in the formula. The empirical formula is C3 H4 O4 . ? C3 H4 O4 + ? O2 ? CO2 + ? H2O Select order: C, H, O 1 C3 H4 O4 + ? O2 3 CO2 + ? H2O 3C 1 C3 H4 O4 + ?

Define the problem: Given a balanced chemical equation, the volume of a liquid limiting reactant, and the density of the liquid, determine the maximum theoretical yield of a product. Develop a plan: Use the density of the reactant to find the grams of the reactant. Then use the molar mass of the reactant to find the moles of reactant. Then use the stoichiometry of the equation to determine moles of product. Then use the molar mass of the product to get the mass of the product. Execute the plan: 3.1023 g Br 2 1 mol Br2 1 mol Al2 Br6 533.387 g Al2 Br6 25.0 mL Br2 × × × × = 86.3 g Al2Br6 1 mL Br2 159.808 g Br2 3 mol Br2 1 mol Al2 Br6 Check your answer: The units all cancel, and the numerical multipliers are larger than the dividers. This somewhat larger answer makes sense. 99. Define the problem: Given the formula of two binary oxide compounds both containing an unknown element and an unknown amount of oxygen, and given the mass of the both elements in a given sample of each compound, we need to determine the ratio of oxygen atoms in the two formulas. Given the number of oxygen atoms in one formula, determine the identity of the unknown element. Develop a plan: We have incomplete information in this problem, so we’ll let the ratio help us eliminate the need to know information common between the two substances. Start by converting the mass of O in each sample to moles of O. We then use the mass of A and its molar mass to determine moles of A, then use the formula stoichiometry to determine the moles of AOx. Dividing the moles of O by the moles of AOx tells us the value of x. Follow the same procedure to get y. We don’t know molar mass of A, but it will cancel in the ratio. Execute the plan: (a) Find moles of O: 3.2 g O × 1 mol O = 0.20 mol O 15.9994 g O Find moles of AOx, using M A for the molar mass of unknown element A: 1.2 g A × 1 mol A 1 mol AOx 1.2 × = mol AOx MA g A 1 mol A MA Find moles of AOy in a similar fashion: 2.4 g A × 1 mol A 1 mol AOy 2.4 × = mol AO y MA g A 1 mol A MA mol O x Now set up the ratio to get : y mol AOx mol O mol AOy Chapter 4: Quantities of Reactants and Products 171 0.20 mol O 1.2 mol AOx MA 2 mol O 1 mol AOx = 0.20 mol O 1 mol O 2.4 1 mol AO y mol AOy MA x 2 = y 1 (b) If x = 2, we can use the moles of O to tell use how many moles of A are present in the AOx sample. 1 mol A 0.20 mol O× = 0.10 mol A 2 mol O Divide mass of A in the sample by moles of A in the sample to get molar mass of A: 1.2 g A = 12 g / mol 0.10 mol A The element with this molar mass is carbon, C. Check your answers: (a) The law of multiple proportions assures us that the ratio of elements in binary compounds is a small whole number, so the ratio looks right. There are probably many other legitimate ways to solve this problem. (b) The molar mass of the unknown element was very close to the molar mass of carbon, and both CO and CO2 are known compounds, so this result makes sense also. 100. Define the problem: Given a balanced chemical equation and the masses of both reactants, determine the limiting reactant, the mass of the product produced, and the mass remaining of the excess reactant when the reaction is complete. Develop a plan: (a) Use the molar mass of the reactants to find the moles of the reactant substances. Then use the stoichiometry of the equation to determine the moles of the product produced in each case. Identify the limiting reactant from the reactant that produces the least number of products. (b) Use the moles of product produced from the limiting reactant and the molar mass of the product to find the grams. (c) From the quantity of limiting reactant, determine the moles of the other reactant needed for complete reaction. Convert that number to grams using the molar mass. Then subtract the quantity used from the initial mass given to get the mass of excess reactant. Execute the plan: Note that 500 grams has 1 significant figure and 1300 grams has 2 significant figures. (a) The balanced equation says: 1 mol CH4 produces 3 mol H2. 500 g CH 4 × 1 mol CH4 3 mol H 2 × = 90 mol H 2 16.0423 g CH 4 1 mol CH 4 The balanced equation says: 1 mol H2O produces 3 mol H2. 1300 g H 2O × 1 mol H 2O 3 mol H 2 × = 220 mol H 2 18.0152 g H 2O 1 mol H2 O The number of H2 moles produced from CH4 is smaller (90 mol < 220 mol), so CH4 is the limiting reactant and H2 O is the excess reactant. (b) Find the mass H2: 90 mol H 2 × 2.0158 g H2 = 200 g H 2 1 mol H 2 Chapter 4: Quantities of Reactants and Products 172 500 g CH 4 × (c) 1 mol CH4 1 mol H2O 18.0152 g H 2O × × = 600 g H 2O 16.0423 g CH 4 1 mol CH 4 1 mol H 2O 1300 g H2 O initial – 600 g H2 O used up = 700 g H2 O remains unreacted Check your answers: The small number of significant figures makes the uncertainty in this calculation somewhat high. However, the general expectations are still met. There is a larger mass of H2O present, and the molar masses of the reactants are about the same size. Since the equation indicates that equal moles of H2O and CH4 react, it makes sense that CH4 is the limiting reactant. In addition, the calculation in (c) proves that the initial mass of H2 O was larger than required to react with all of the CH4 . 101. Define the problem: Given the mass of a sample of ore with unknown amounts of two copper compounds and some amo unt of inert impurity, the products of a chemical reaction, and the mass and percent purity of one element in the products, determine the percent by mass of one of the copper compounds. Develop a plan: Use the percent purity of the copper in the product and the molar mass of copper to find the moles of copper in the ore. Set two variables X = the mass in grams of Cu 2 S and Y = the mass in grams of CuS. Then establish two equations, one describing the total mass of the sample related to the three components and one describing the moles of copper in the sample from two sources. Algebraically solve for X and Y, then use the mass of Cu 2 S and the total sample mass to find the percentage by mass. Execute the plan: 150 .8 g impure Cu × 90 .0 g Cu 1 mol Cu × = 2.136 mol Cu 100 g impure Cu 63.546 g Cu Let X = grams of Cu 2 S and Y = grams of CuS, and recall that 10.% of the ore is inert impurities. Total mass of sample = 200.0 g = X + Y + 0.10 × 200.0 g Moles of copper = 1 mol Cu 2S 2 mol Cu 1 mol CuS 1 mol Cu 2.136 mol Cu = X g Cu 2S × × + Y g CuS× × 159.157 g Cu 2S 1 mol Cu 2S 95.611 g CuS 1 mol CuS 180.0 = X + Y Solve for X: and 2.136 = 0.0125662 X + 0.010459 Y 2.136 = 0.0125662 X + 0.010459 (180.0 − X) 2.136 = 0.0125662 X + 1.883 − 0.010459 X 2.136 − 1.883 = (0.0125662 − 0.010459) X 0.253 = (0.002107) X 120. = X 120 . g Cu 2 O × 100 % = 60.1 % Cu 2O 200 .0 g ore Check your answer: Close to the maximum quantity of iron was produced, so it makes sense that the percent yield is over ninety percent. 102. Define the problem: Given the names of products and reactants of a chemical reaction, and the masses of the two reactants, determine the masses of all the products and reactants after the reaction is complete. Chapter 4: Quantities of Reactants and Products 173 Develop a plan: Determine the formulas of the reactants and products and set up and balance the chemical equation. Use the molar mass of the reactants to find the moles of the reactant substances. Then use the stoichiometry of the equation to determine the moles of the product produced in each case. Identify the limiting reactant from the reactant that produces the least number of products. Use the moles of product produced from the limiting reactant, the molar masses of the products to find the grams of products. Use the moles of product produced, determine the moles of the other reactant needed for complete reaction. Convert that number to grams using the molar mass.
