For the reaction 2Al + 3Cl2 → 2AlCl3, what mass m of AlCl3 forms from 100 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 2Al + 3Cl2 → 2AlCl3, what mass m of AlCl3 forms from 5 g of Al? Assume the other reactants are in excess.
M(Al) = 26.98 g/molM(AlCl3) = 133.33 g/mol
m = g
3.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
4.Medium
8 g of H2 and 24 g of O2 react according to 2H2 + O2 → 2H2O. What mass m of H2O can form?
M(H2) = 2.016M(O2) = 32M(H2O) = 18.02 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 130.5 g of AlCl3 is collected. Find the percent yield Y.
M(Al) = 26.98 g/molM(AlCl3) = 133.33 g/molactual: 130.5 g
Y = %
6.Hard
In the reaction C6H12O6 → 2C2H5OH + 2CO2, 8 g of C6H12O6 reacts completely (the other reactants are in excess) and 3.36 g of C2H5OH is collected. Find the percent yield Y.
M(C6H12O6) = 180.16 g/molM(C2H5OH) = 46.07 g/molactual: 3.36 g
Y = %
Answer key
- 1. m = 494.2 g
- 2. m = 24.71 g
- 3. m = 11.26 g
- 4. m = 27.03 g
- 5. Y = 88 %
- 6. Y = 82.12 %
