For the reaction Fe2O3 + 3CO → 2Fe + 3CO2, what mass m of Fe forms from 32 g of Fe2O3? Assume the other reactants are in excess.
Stoichiometry worksheet with answers
1.Easy
M(Fe2O3) = 159.69 g/molM(Fe) = 55.85 g/mol
m = g
2.Easy
For the reaction 2Na + Cl2 → 2NaCl, what mass m of NaCl forms from 16 g of Na? Assume the other reactants are in excess.
M(Na) = 22.99 g/molM(NaCl) = 58.44 g/mol
m = g
3.Medium
12 g of Fe2O3 and 48 g of CO react according to Fe2O3 + 3CO → 2Fe + 3CO2. What mass m of Fe can form?
M(Fe2O3) = 159.69M(CO) = 28.01M(Fe) = 55.85 g/mol
m = g
4.Medium
30 g of Fe2O3 and 32 g of CO react according to Fe2O3 + 3CO → 2Fe + 3CO2. What mass m of CO2 can form?
M(Fe2O3) = 159.69M(CO) = 28.01M(CO2) = 44.01 g/mol
m = g
5.Hard
In the reaction CH4 + 2O2 → CO2 + 2H2O, 24 g of CH4 reacts completely (the other reactants are in excess) and 40.83 g of CO2 is collected. Find the percent yield Y.
M(CH4) = 16.04 g/molM(CO2) = 44.01 g/molactual: 40.83 g
Y = %
6.Hard
In the reaction Fe2O3 + 3CO → 2Fe + 3CO2, 10 g of Fe2O3 reacts completely (the other reactants are in excess) and 4.55 g of CO2 is collected. Find the percent yield Y.
M(Fe2O3) = 159.69 g/molM(CO2) = 44.01 g/molactual: 4.55 g
Y = %
Answer key
- 1. m = 22.38 g
