For the reaction CaCO3 → CaO + CO2, what mass m of CO2 forms from 25 g of CaCO3? Assume the other reactants are in excess.
Stoichiometry worksheet with answers
1.Easy
M(CaCO3) = 100.09 g/molM(CO2) = 44.01 g/mol
m = g
2.Easy
For the reaction CH4 + 2O2 → CO2 + 2H2O, what mass m of CO2 forms from 50 g of CH4? Assume the other reactants are in excess.
M(CH4) = 16.04 g/molM(CO2) = 44.01 g/mol
m = g
3.Medium
24 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
4.Medium
12 g of C3H8 and 10 g of O2 react according to C3H8 + 5O2 → 3CO2 + 4H2O. What mass m of CO2 can form?
M(C3H8) = 44.1M(O2) = 32M(CO2) = 44.01 g/mol
m = g
5.Hard
In the reaction CH4 + 2O2 → CO2 + 2H2O, 24 g of CH4 reacts completely (the other reactants are in excess) and 33.43 g of H2O is collected. Find the percent yield Y.
M(CH4) = 16.04 g/molM(H2O) = 18.02 g/molactual: 33.43 g
Y = %
6.Hard
In the reaction C6H12O6 → 2C2H5OH + 2CO2, 30 g of C6H12O6 reacts completely (the other reactants are in excess) and 11.97 g of C2H5OH is collected. Find the percent yield Y.
M(C6H12O6) = 180.16 g/molM(C2H5OH) = 46.07 g/molactual: 11.97 g
Y = %
Answer key
- 1. m = 10.99 g
- 2. m = 137.2 g
- 3. m = 39.79 g
- 4. m = 8.252 g
- 5. Y = 61.99 %
- 6. Y = 78.02 %
