Stoichiometry worksheet with answers
1.Easy
M(Fe2O3) = 159.69 g/molM(CO2) = 44.01 g/mol
m = g
2.Easy
For the reaction 2Na + Cl2 → 2NaCl, what mass m of NaCl forms from 16 g of Na? Assume the other reactants are in excess.
M(Na) = 22.99 g/molM(NaCl) = 58.44 g/mol
m = g
3.Medium
16 g of Fe2O3 and 48 g of CO react according to Fe2O3 + 3CO → 2Fe + 3CO2. What mass m of Fe can form?
M(Fe2O3) = 159.69M(CO) = 28.01M(Fe) = 55.85 g/mol
m = g
4.Medium
24 g of CH4 and 20 g of O2 react according to CH4 + 2O2 → CO2 + 2H2O. What mass m of H2O can form?
M(CH4) = 16.04M(O2) = 32M(H2O) = 18.02 g/mol
m = g
5.Hard
In the reaction Fe2O3 + 3CO → 2Fe + 3CO2, 6 g of Fe2O3 reacts completely (the other reactants are in excess) and 2.31 g of Fe is collected. Find the percent yield Y.
M(Fe2O3) = 159.69 g/molM(Fe) = 55.85 g/molactual: 2.31 g
Y = %
6.Hard
In the reaction C6H12O6 → 2C2H5OH + 2CO2, 30 g of C6H12O6 reacts completely (the other reactants are in excess) and 12.58 g of C2H5OH is collected. Find the percent yield Y.
M(C6H12O6) = 180.16 g/molM(C2H5OH) = 46.07 g/molactual: 12.58 g
Y = %
Answer key
- 1. m = 82.68 g
- 2. m = 40.67 g
- 3. m = 11.19 g
- 4. m = 11.26 g
- 5. Y = 55.04 %
- 6. Y = 81.99 %
