What is the chemical that gets used up first in a reaction. It is the chemical that limits how much product you can make.n grams of X divided by molar mass of X
multiply by mole ratio
multiply by molar mass of Y
This is the molar mass of Li2S.
Fe2O3 + CO2 --> 2Fe + 3CO2
How much Fe2O3 is needed to obtain 92.8 g of Fe?
What is 133 g Fe2O3
2Cu + S --> Cu2S
This is the limiting reactant when 80 g of Cu reacts with 25 g of S.
What is H2O2
This is the molar mass of Na3PO4.
2NaOH + CO2 --> Na2CO3 + H2O
This number of grams of CO2 are needed to react with 3.5 grams of NaOH.
What is 1.925 g CO2?
CaCO3 --> CaO + CO2
What is the theoretical yield of CaO if 24.8 g of CaCO3 is heated?
In the equation:
2Fe2O3 + C --> Fe + 3CO2,
this is the molar mass of carbon dioxide.
SiO2 + 3C --> SiC + 2CO
When 50 g of silicon dioxide is heated with an excess of carbon, 32.2 g of silicon carbide is produced. How many grams of CO are made if it CO shows the same % yield?
N2H4 + O2 --> N2 + 2 H2O
You have 1,000 g of N2H4 and 1,400 g of O2.
How many grams of the excess reagent will remain after the reaction?
400 grams excess O2
1 - Determine the limiting reactant
2 - Use that limiting amount to determine how much of the excess is used.
3 - Subtract from the amount of excess reagent you began with.
FeCO3 + O2 --> 2Fe2O3 +4CO2
If 75 g of FeCO3 is heated with an excess of oxygen, 45 g of Fe2O3 is produced.
What is the percent yield of this reaction?
