For the reaction 2Na + Cl2 → 2NaCl, what mass m of NaCl forms from 20 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 C6H12O6 → 2C2H5OH + 2CO2, what mass m of CO2 forms from 16 g of C6H12O6? Assume the other reactants are in excess.
M(C6H12O6) = 180.16 g/molM(CO2) = 44.01 g/mol
m = g
3.Medium
24 g of C3H8 and 32 g of O2 react according to C3H8 + 5O2 → 3CO2 + 4H2O. What mass m of H2O can form?
M(C3H8) = 44.1M(O2) = 32M(H2O) = 18.02 g/mol
m = g
4.Medium
10 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
5.Hard
In the reaction N2 + 3H2 → 2NH3, 8 g of N2 reacts completely (the other reactants are in excess) and 7.59 g of NH3 is collected. Find the percent yield Y.
M(N2) = 28.02 g/molM(NH3) = 17.03 g/molactual: 7.59 g
Y = %
6.Hard
In the reaction CaCO3 → CaO + CO2, 20 g of CaCO3 reacts completely (the other reactants are in excess) and 8.27 g of CO2 is collected. Find the percent yield Y.
M(CaCO3) = 100.09 g/molM(CO2) = 44.01 g/molactual: 8.27 g
Y = %
