For the reaction C6H12O6 → 2C2H5OH + 2CO2, what mass m of CO2 forms from 8 g of C6H12O6? Assume the other reactants are in excess.
Stoichiometry worksheet with answers
1.Easy
M(C6H12O6) = 180.16 g/molM(CO2) = 44.01 g/mol
m = g
2.Easy
For the reaction 2Al + 3Cl2 → 2AlCl3, what mass m of AlCl3 forms from 25 g of Al? Assume the other reactants are in excess.
M(Al) = 26.98 g/molM(AlCl3) = 133.33 g/mol
m = g
3.Medium
6 g of CH4 and 32 g of O2 react according to CH4 + 2O2 → CO2 + 2H2O. What mass m of CO2 can form?
M(CH4) = 16.04M(O2) = 32M(CO2) = 44.01 g/mol
m = g
4.Medium
8 g of Na and 16 g of Cl2 react according to 2Na + Cl2 → 2NaCl. What mass m of NaCl can form?
M(Na) = 22.99M(Cl2) = 70.9M(NaCl) = 58.44 g/mol
m = g
5.Hard
In the reaction 2Mg + O2 → 2MgO, 8 g of Mg reacts completely (the other reactants are in excess) and 10.87 g of MgO is collected. Find the percent yield Y.
M(Mg) = 24.31 g/molM(MgO) = 40.3 g/molactual: 10.87 g
Y = %
6.Hard
In the reaction C3H8 + 5O2 → 3CO2 + 4H2O, 30 g of C3H8 reacts completely (the other reactants are in excess) and 26.97 g of H2O is collected. Find the percent yield Y.
M(C3H8) = 44.1 g/molM(H2O) = 18.02 g/molactual: 26.97 g
Y = %
Answer key
- 1. m = 3.909 g
- 2. m = 123.5 g
- 3. m = 16.46 g
- 4. m = 20.34 g
- 5. Y = 81.96 %
- 6. Y = 55 %
