For the reaction 2Al + 3Cl2 → 2AlCl3, what mass m of AlCl3 forms from 8 g of Al? Assume the other reactants are in excess.
Stoichiometry worksheet with answers
1.Easy
M(Al) = 26.98 g/molM(AlCl3) = 133.33 g/mol
m = g
2.Easy
For the reaction 2H2 + O2 → 2H2O, what mass m of H2O forms from 64 g of H2? Assume the other reactants are in excess.
M(H2) = 2.016 g/molM(H2O) = 18.02 g/mol
m = g
3.Medium
24 g of Na and 20 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
16 g of CH4 and 80 g of O2 react according to CH4 + 2O2 → CO2 + 2H2O. What mass m of CO2 can form?
M(CH4) = 16.04M(O2) = 32M(CO2) = 44.01 g/mol
m = g
5.Hard
In the reaction N2 + 3H2 → 2NH3, 6 g of N2 reacts completely (the other reactants are in excess) and 6.64 g of NH3 is collected. Find the percent yield Y.
M(N2) = 28.02 g/molM(NH3) = 17.03 g/molactual: 6.64 g
Y = %
6.Hard
In the reaction N2 + 3H2 → 2NH3, 4 g of N2 reacts completely (the other reactants are in excess) and 3.79 g of NH3 is collected. Find the percent yield Y.
M(N2) = 28.02 g/molM(NH3) = 17.03 g/molactual: 3.79 g
Y = %
Answer key
- 1. m = 39.53 g
- 2. m = 572.1 g
- 3. m = 32.97 g
- 4. m = 43.9 g
- 5. Y = 91.04 %
- 6. Y = 77.95 %
