For the reaction Fe2O3 + 3CO → 2Fe + 3CO2, what mass m of Fe forms from 12 g of Fe2O3? Assume the other reactants are in excess.
Stoichiometry worksheet with answers
1.Easy
M(Fe2O3) = 159.69 g/molM(Fe) = 55.85 g/mol
m = g
2.Easy
For the reaction C3H8 + 5O2 → 3CO2 + 4H2O, what mass m of CO2 forms from 25 g of C3H8? Assume the other reactants are in excess.
M(C3H8) = 44.1 g/molM(CO2) = 44.01 g/mol
m = g
3.Medium
10 g of Na and 10 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 Fe2O3 + 3CO → 2Fe + 3CO2, 10 g of Fe2O3 reacts completely (the other reactants are in excess) and 6.78 g of CO2 is collected. Find the percent yield Y.
M(Fe2O3) = 159.69 g/molM(CO2) = 44.01 g/molactual: 6.78 g
Y = %
6.Hard
In the reaction C3H8 + 5O2 → 3CO2 + 4H2O, 4 g of C3H8 reacts completely (the other reactants are in excess) and 10.54 g of CO2 is collected. Find the percent yield Y.
M(C3H8) = 44.1 g/molM(CO2) = 44.01 g/molactual: 10.54 g
Y = %
Answer key
- 1. m = 8.394 g
- 2. m = 74.85 g
- 3. m = 16.49 g
- 4. m = 9.947 g
- 5. Y = 82 %
- 6. Y = 88.01 %
