For the reaction N2 + 3H2 → 2NH3, what mass m of NH3 forms from 8 g of N2? Assume the other reactants are in excess.
Stoichiometry worksheet with answers
1.Easy
M(N2) = 28.02 g/molM(NH3) = 17.03 g/mol
m = g
2.Easy
For the reaction 2H2 + O2 → 2H2O, what mass m of H2O forms from 16 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 Al and 16 g of Cl2 react according to 2Al + 3Cl2 → 2AlCl3. What mass m of AlCl3 can form?
M(Al) = 26.98M(Cl2) = 70.9M(AlCl3) = 133.33 g/mol
m = g
4.Medium
30 g of C3H8 and 24 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 2Mg + O2 → 2MgO, 24 g of Mg reacts completely (the other reactants are in excess) and 29.84 g of MgO is collected. Find the percent yield Y.
M(Mg) = 24.31 g/molM(MgO) = 40.3 g/molactual: 29.84 g
Y = %
6.Hard
In the reaction Fe2O3 + 3CO → 2Fe + 3CO2, 12 g of Fe2O3 reacts completely (the other reactants are in excess) and 7.39 g of Fe is collected. Find the percent yield Y.
M(Fe2O3) = 159.69 g/molM(Fe) = 55.85 g/molactual: 7.39 g
Y = %
