For the reaction 2H2 + O2 → 2H2O, what mass m of H2O forms from 16 g of H2? Assume the other reactants are in excess.
Stoichiometry worksheet with answers
1.Easy
M(H2) = 2.016 g/molM(H2O) = 18.02 g/mol
m = g
2.Easy
For the reaction CaCO3 → CaO + CO2, what mass m of CO2 forms from 100 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
4 g of Fe2O3 and 48 g of CO react according to Fe2O3 + 3CO → 2Fe + 3CO2. What mass m of CO2 can form?
M(Fe2O3) = 159.69M(CO) = 28.01M(CO2) = 44.01 g/mol
m = g
4.Medium
16 g of N2 and 64 g of H2 react according to N2 + 3H2 → 2NH3. What mass m of NH3 can form?
M(N2) = 28.02M(H2) = 2.016M(NH3) = 17.03 g/mol
m = g
5.Hard
In the reaction 2Mg + O2 → 2MgO, 4 g of Mg reacts completely (the other reactants are in excess) and 4.97 g of MgO is collected. Find the percent yield Y.
M(Mg) = 24.31 g/molM(MgO) = 40.3 g/molactual: 4.97 g
Y = %
6.Hard
In the reaction 2Mg + O2 → 2MgO, 10 g of Mg reacts completely (the other reactants are in excess) and 12.43 g of MgO is collected. Find the percent yield Y.
M(Mg) = 24.31 g/molM(MgO) = 40.3 g/molactual: 12.43 g
Y = %
Answer key
- 1. m = 143 g
- 2. m = 43.97 g
- 3. m = 3.307 g
- 4. m = 19.45 g
- 5. Y = 74.95 %
- 6. Y = 74.98 %
