For the reaction C3H8 + 5O2 → 3CO2 + 4H2O, what mass m of CO2 forms from 50 g of C3H8? Assume the other reactants are in excess.
Stoichiometry worksheet with answers
1.Easy
M(C3H8) = 44.1 g/molM(CO2) = 44.01 g/mol
m = g
2.Easy
For the reaction 2Mg + O2 → 2MgO, what mass m of MgO forms from 40 g of Mg? Assume the other reactants are in excess.
M(Mg) = 24.31 g/molM(MgO) = 40.3 g/mol
m = g
3.Medium
8 g of H2 and 32 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 2Al + 3Cl2 → 2AlCl3, 24 g of Al reacts completely (the other reactants are in excess) and 107.9 g of AlCl3 is collected. Find the percent yield Y.
M(Al) = 26.98 g/molM(AlCl3) = 133.33 g/molactual: 107.9 g
Y = %
6.Hard
In the reaction C3H8 + 5O2 → 3CO2 + 4H2O, 8 g of C3H8 reacts completely (the other reactants are in excess) and 17.96 g of CO2 is collected. Find the percent yield Y.
M(C3H8) = 44.1 g/molM(CO2) = 44.01 g/molactual: 17.96 g
Y = %
Answer key
- 1. m = 149.7 g
- 2. m = 66.31 g
- 3. m = 36.04 g
- 4. m = 40.3 g
- 5. Y = 91 %
- 6. Y = 74.99 %
