II. Stoichiometry in the Real World Stoichiometry – Ch. 11
A. Limiting Reactants b Available Ingredients 4 slices of bread 1 jar of peanut butter 1/2 jar of jelly b Limiting Reactant bread b Excess Reactants peanut butter and jelly
A. Limiting Reactants b Limiting Reactant used up in a reaction determines the amount of product b Excess Reactant added to ensure that the other reactant is completely used up cheaper & easier to recycle
A. Limiting Reactants 1. Write a balanced equation. 2. For each reactant, calculate the amount of product formed. 3. Smaller answer indicates: limiting reactant amount of product
A. Limiting Reactants b 40.0 g of iron (III) oxide react with 10.0 g of Magnesium. Identify the limiting and excess reactants. How many grams of iron are formed? FeO + Mg Fe + MgO 40.0 g ? g 10.0g
B. Percent Yield calculated on paper measured in lab
B. Percent Yield b When 45.8 g of K 2 CO 3 react with excess HCl, 46.3 g of KCl are formed. Calculate the theoretical and % yields of KCl. K 2 CO 3 + 2HCl 2KCl + H 2 O + CO g? g actual: 46.3 g
B. Percent Yield 45.8 g K 2 CO 3 1 mol K 2 CO g K 2 CO 3 = 49.4 g KCl 2 mol KCl 1 mol K 2 CO g KCl 1 mol KCl K 2 CO 3 + 2HCl 2KCl + H 2 O + CO g? g actual: 46.3 g Theoretical Yield:
B. Percent Yield Theoretical Yield = 49.4 g KCl % Yield = 46.3 g 49.4 g 100 = 93.7% K 2 CO 3 + 2HCl 2KCl + H 2 O + CO g49.4 g actual: 46.3 g
