For the reaction 2Na + Cl2 → 2NaCl, what mass m of NaCl forms from 50 g of Na? Assume the other reactants are in excess.
Stoichiometry worksheet with answers
1.Easy
M(Na) = 22.99 g/molM(NaCl) = 58.44 g/mol
m = g
2.Easy
For the reaction N2 + 3H2 → 2NH3, what mass m of NH3 forms from 12 g of N2? Assume the other reactants are in excess.
M(N2) = 28.02 g/molM(NH3) = 17.03 g/mol
m = g
3.Medium
12 g of H2 and 80 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
4.Medium
30 g of Mg and 16 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 C6H12O6 → 2C2H5OH + 2CO2, 8 g of C6H12O6 reacts completely (the other reactants are in excess) and 2.74 g of CO2 is collected. Find the percent yield Y.
M(C6H12O6) = 180.16 g/molM(CO2) = 44.01 g/molactual: 2.74 g
Y = %
6.Hard
In the reaction CH4 + 2O2 → CO2 + 2H2O, 12 g of CH4 reacts completely (the other reactants are in excess) and 22.11 g of H2O is collected. Find the percent yield Y.
M(CH4) = 16.04 g/molM(H2O) = 18.02 g/molactual: 22.11 g
Y = %
