For the reaction C6H12O6 → 2C2H5OH + 2CO2, what mass m of CO2 forms from 16 g of C6H12O6? Assume the other reactants are in excess.
Stoichiometry worksheet with answers
1.Easy
M(C6H12O6) = 180.16 g/molM(CO2) = 44.01 g/mol
m = g
2.Easy
For the reaction CaCO3 → CaO + CO2, what mass m of CO2 forms from 25 g of CaCO3? Assume the other reactants are in excess.
M(CaCO3) = 100.09 g/molM(CO2) = 44.01 g/mol
m = g
3.Medium
12 g of Na and 24 g of Cl2 react according to 2Na + Cl2 → 2NaCl. What mass m of NaCl can form?
M(Na) = 22.99M(Cl2) = 70.9M(NaCl) = 58.44 g/mol
m = g
4.Medium
6 g of Mg and 24 g of O2 react according to 2Mg + O2 → 2MgO. What mass m of MgO can form?
M(Mg) = 24.31M(O2) = 32M(MgO) = 40.3 g/mol
m = g
5.Hard
In the reaction 2Al + 3Cl2 → 2AlCl3, 30 g of Al reacts completely (the other reactants are in excess) and 115.6 g of AlCl3 is collected. Find the percent yield Y.
M(Al) = 26.98 g/molM(AlCl3) = 133.33 g/molactual: 115.6 g
Y = %
6.Hard
In the reaction 2H2 + O2 → 2H2O, 6 g of H2 reacts completely (the other reactants are in excess) and 29.5 g of H2O is collected. Find the percent yield Y.
M(H2) = 2.016 g/molM(H2O) = 18.02 g/molactual: 29.5 g
Y = %
Answer key
- 1. m = 7.817 g
- 2. m = 10.99 g
- 3. m = 30.5 g
- 4. m = 9.947 g
- 5. Y = 78 %
- 6. Y = 55.01 %
