Airbags save thousands of lives every year. When a collision happens, the following reaction occurs. "stoicheion" meaning element and "metron", meaning measure. 2NaN3(s) --> 2Na(s) + 3N2(g) In order to properly inflate, roughly 50 L of nitrogen gas must be produced. NaN3 capsule Engineers have determined, using stoichiometry, that about 96 grams of NaN3 are needed to react in each airbag capsule to produce enough nitrogen gas.

Slide 71 / 109 Slide 72 / 109 Concept of the Limiting Reactant In a chemical reaction, do all of the reactants turn into products? What happens when one of the reactants gets used up? Limiting Reactants If the following reaction starts with 10 moles of H2 and 20 moles of Cl2, which reactant will run out of first? H2(g) + Cl2(g) --> 2HCl(g) Return to Table of Contents Slide 73 / 109 Slide 74 / 109 Concept of the Limiting Reactant Concept of the Limiting Reactant The 10 moles of H2 are used to produce 20 moles of HCl. When the H2 is all used up, no more HCl can be produced. No more HCl can be produced once the H2 runs out, therefore, H2 is the Limiting Reactant (limits the amount of product). Were all the moles of Cl2 used up? Since the reaction started with more Cl2 than H2, not all of the Cl2 is used up in the reaction. How many are left over? H2(g) + Cl2(g) --> 2HCl(g) Cl2 is the Excess Reactant (there's an excess amount). H2(g) + Cl2(g) --> 2HCl(g) Left-over Cl2 not used in the reaction to make HCL Slide 75 / 109 Slide 76 / 109 Limiting Reactants Limiting Reactants The limiting reactant, or limiting reagent, is the reactant present in the smallest stoichiometric amount. This is not necessarily the one with the smallest mass. The limiting reactant is the reactant you’ll run out of first, and it is the one that determines the maximum amount of product that can be made. Limiting reagent problems are worded differently because the quantities of both reactants are given. 10 moles of H2 and 20 moles of Cl2 react to produce HCl. Which quantity is the limiting reagent? It is your job to figure out which reactant is limiting because that will determine the maximum amount of product you can get, also called the maximum yield. There are a variety of methods to determine which reactant is the limiting one. Slide 77 / 109 Steps to Determine the Limiting Reactant A series of steps can be used to determine the limiting reactant in any reaction: Step 1: Convert the given quantities into moles. These are your initial amounts of each reactant. Step 2: Divide each by its stoichiometrical coefficient from the balanced chemical equation. This factors in how much is needed in the reaction. Step 3: Whichever reagent has the smallest quantity must be the limiting reactant! Slide 78 / 109 Determining the Limiting Reactant Example: When 10 grams of hydrogen react with 3.4 moles of nitrogen gas to make ammonia, which substance would be the limiting reactant? N2(g) + 3H2(g) --> 2NH3(g) Step 1: Convert all values to moles. 10 g H2 x 1 mol H2 = 5 mol H2 2 g H2 Initial Amounts = 5 mol H2, 3.4 mol N2 Slide 79 / 109 Slide 80 / 109 Limiting Reactants Determining the Limiting Reactant Step 2: Find the stoichiometrical equivalents of each reactant N2(g) + 3H2(g) --> 2NH3(g) Initial: 3.4 mol 5 mol Divide by coefficient: 3.4/1 5/3 Available Amounts: 3.4 mol 1.66 mol Example: If 10 moles of hydrogen gas react with 7 moles of oxygen gas @STP to make water, which is the limiting reactant? 2H2(g) + O2(g) --> 2H2O(g) Step 1: Both amounts are already in moles! Step 2: 10 mol H2/2 = 5 mol H2 available Step 3: Since there is less hydrogen gas, it will be the limiting reactant! 7 mol O2/1 = 7 mol O2 available Step 3: H2 gas is the limiting reactant. O2 gas will be left over and is the excess reactant. Slide 81 / 109 Slide 82 / 109 Limiting Reactants Example: Given that 40 In this example, the ____ is the limiting reagent. A Hydrogen 2H2O(g) + O2(g) -->2H2O2(l) B Oxygen If 36 grams of water react with 44.8 L of oxygen gas @STP, which substance is the limiting reactant? C water Step 1: 36 g H2O x 1 mol = 2 mol H2O 18 g H2O 44.8 L O2 x 1 mol = 2 mol O2 24 L O2 Step 2: Before reaction 10H and 7 O 2 2 After reaction 10 H O and 2O 2 2 2 mol H2O/2 = 1 mol H2O available 2 mol O2/1 = 2 mol O2 available Step 3: Since less water is available, it is the limiting reactant. Oxygen gas is the excess reactant. Slide 83 / 109 Slide 84 / 109 42 When 33 L of nitrogen gas react with 12 grams of hydrogen gas to make ammonia @STP, the hydrogen gas will be the excess reactant. 41 In this example _______ is the excess reagent.

True False Slide 87 / 109 Zn(s) + 2H+(aq) --> Zn2+ + H2(g) Slide 88 / 109 Real World Application 2C8H18(g) + 25O2(g) --> 16CO2(g) + 18H2O(g) In your car engine, octane is combusted with oxygen to produce carbon dioxide and water (the exhaust). The mix of octane to oxygen must be right on or the mix is too rich (too much octane) or too lean (too little octane). Theoretical, Actual and Percent Yield If 0.065 L of oxygen is being mixed with 0.0061 L of octane @ STP, calculate if the mixture is running lean or running rich? 0.065 L x 1 = 0.0029 mol O2 0.0061 L x 1 = 0.00027 mol octane move for answer 0.00027 mol/2 = 0.00014 mol octane av.

Slide 89 / 109 Slide 90 / 109 Theoretical Yield and % Yield 3 Types of Yield Theoretical yield - the amount of product that could form during a reaction; it is calculated from a balanced chemical equation and it represents the maximum amount of product that could be formed from a given amount of reactant. Actual yield - the amount of product that forms when a reaction is carried out in the laboratory. It is measured in the lab. Why is the actual yield different from the percent yield? Percent yield - the ratio of the actual yield to the theoretical yield for a chemical reaction expressed as a percent; it is a measure of the efficiency of a reaction Theoretical Yield: Maximum amount of product that could be made. Limited by the amount of the limiting reactant. % Yield: The ratio of actual amount produced in the laboratory to the theoretical amount that could have been produced. Expressed as: Actual Yield Theoretical Yield x 100 Slide 91 / 109 Slide 92 / 109 Calculating the Theoretical Yield Example: Find the theoretical yield (in g) of AlCl , if 27g Al and 71g Cl react. 3 Step 1: Determine the limiting reactant 27 g 71 g Cl2 x 1 mol = 1 mol Cl2 71 g 1 mol Al/2 = 0.50 mol Al available 1 mol Cl2/3 = 0.33 mol Cl2 available Cl2 Limits Step 2: Use INITIAL amount of Cl2 and stoichiometry to determine yield of desired product. 1 mol Cl2 x 2 mol AlCl3 x 3 mol Cl2 The efficiency of a reaction can be expressed as a ratio of the actual yield to the theoretical yield. 2 2Al(s) + 3Cl2(g) --> 2AlCl3(s) 27 g Al x 1 mol = 1 mol Al Percent Yield For example, a percent yield of 85% shows that the reaction conditions are more favorable than with a percent yield of only 55%. Percent yield is the ratio comparing the amount actually obtained (actual yield) to the maximum amount that was possible (theoretical yield). Percent Yield = Actual Yield x 100 Theoretical Yield 133 g AlCl3 = 87.8 g 1 mol AlCl3 Slide 93 / 109 Calculating Theoretical Yield and % Yield Slide 94 / 109 Calculating Theoretical Yield and % Yield Step 1: Find the LR Example: A student burns 24 grams of methane with 30 L of oxygen gas in the laboratory and produces 12.1 L of carbon dioxide gas at STP. What is the % yield? CH4(g) + 2O2(g) --> CO2(g) + 2H2O(g) 24 g CH4 x 1 mol = 1.5 mol CH4 30 L O2 x 1 mol = 1.33 mol O2 16 g 22.4 L 1.5 mol CH4/1 = 1.5 mol CH4 av. 1.33 mol O2/2 = 0.67 mol O2 av.

If 152 kg of carbon monoxide gas is reacted with 1500 L of H2 gas @STP, how many liters of the excess reactant remain? (Remember to first write a balanced reaction!) Slide 108 / 109 Stoichiometry Practice Problem Calcium hydroxide, Ca(OH)2 , is also known as “slaked lime” and it is produced when water reacts with “quick lime,” CaO. If you start with 2.4 kg of quick lime, add excess water, and produce 2.06 kg of slaked lime, what is the percent yield of the reaction? Is this a limiting reagent problem? Is the 2.06 kg a theoretical yield or actual yield? What quantity must you solve for? Did you write a balanced equation?
