Chapter 3: 3.61P (page 133)

Reactants A and B form product C. Write a detailed Plan to find the mass of C when 25 g of A reacts with excess B.

Short Answer

Expert verified

In this case, as we know we have reactant B in excess which actually means that A is our limiting reactant.

Now calculate the moles of the limiting reactant.

Finally, with help of stoichiometry, we will get moles of that product.

Lastly, we multiply the moles with molecular mass and get the mass of C.

Step by step solution

01

Step1. Finding the limiting reactant.

In this case, as we know we have reactant B in excess which actually means that A is our limiting reactant.

Now calculate the moles of the limiting reactant.

Finally, with help of stoichiometry, we will get moles of that product.

Lastly, we multiply the moles with molecular mass and get the mass of C.

Step2. Final result

In this case, as we know we have reactant B in excess which actually means that A is our limiting reactant.

Now calculate the moles of the limiting reactant.

Finally, with help of stoichiometry, we will get moles of that product.

Lastly, we multiply the moles with molecular mass and get the mass of C.

Elements X (green) and Y (purple) react according to the following equation: X2+3Y2→2XY3. Which molecular scene represents the product of the reaction?

The effectiveness of a nitrogen fertilizer is determined mainly by its mass % N. Rank the following fertilizer, most effective first: potassium nitrate; ammonium nitrate; ammonium sulfate; urea,CO(NH2).

The human body excretes nitrogen in the form of urea, NH2CONH2. The key biochemical step in urea formation is the reaction of water with arginine to produce urea and ornithine:

(a) What is the mass percent of nitrogen in urea, arginine, and ornithine? (b) How many grams of nitrogen can be excreted as urea when 135.2 g of ornithine is produced?

High-temperature superconducting oxides hold great promise in the utility, transportation, and computer industries. (a) One superconductor is La2-xSrxCuO4. Calculate the molar masses of this oxide when x = 0, x = 1, and x = 0.163. (b) Another common superconducting oxide is made by heating a mixture of barium carbonate, copper(II) oxide, and yttrium(III) oxide, followed by further heating in O2:

4BaCO3(s)+6CuO(s)+Y2O3(s)→2YBa2Cu3O6.5(s)+4CO2(g)2Ba2Cu3O6.5(s)+12O2(g)→2YBa2Cu3O7(s)

When equal masses of the three reactants are heated, which reactant is limiting? (c) After the product in part (b) is removed, what is the mass percent of each reactant in the remaining solid mixture?

Each of the following balances weighs the indicated numbers of atoms of two elements:

Which element-left, right, or neither,
(a) Has the higher molar mass?
(b) Has more atoms per gram?
(c) Has fewer atoms per gram?
(d) Has more atoms per mole?
