For the reaction 2Al + 3Cl2 → 2AlCl3, what mass m of AlCl3 forms from 64 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 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
24 g of Mg and 48 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
8 g of N2 and 8 g of H2 react according to N2 + 3H2 → 2NH3. What mass m of NH3 can form?
M(N2) = 28.02M(H2) = 2.016M(NH3) = 17.03 g/mol
m = g
5.Hard
In the reaction Fe2O3 + 3CO → 2Fe + 3CO2, 20 g of Fe2O3 reacts completely (the other reactants are in excess) and 11.47 g of Fe is collected. Find the percent yield Y.
M(Fe2O3) = 159.69 g/molM(Fe) = 55.85 g/molactual: 11.47 g
Y = %
6.Hard
In the reaction 2Na + Cl2 → 2NaCl, 30 g of Na reacts completely (the other reactants are in excess) and 53.38 g of NaCl is collected. Find the percent yield Y.
M(Na) = 22.99 g/molM(NaCl) = 58.44 g/molactual: 53.38 g
Y = %
Answer key
- 1. m = 316.3 g
- 2. m = 14.59 g
- 3. m = 39.79 g
- 4. m = 9.724 g
- 5. Y = 81.99 %
- 6. Y = 70 %
