Question How many grams of water are produced when 5.14 grams of Hydrogen Nitrite is reacted with Barium Hydroxide?
Write a Complete and Balanced Equation 2H(NO 2 ) + Ba(OH) 2 2H 2 O + Ba(NO 2 ) 2
Draw a Column for Each Chemical 2H(NO 2 )+ Ba(OH) 2 2H 2 O +Ba(NO 2 ) 2
Write the Amount Given in the Appropriate Column 2H(NO 2 )+ Ba(OH) 2 2H 2 O +Ba(NO 2 ) g
Convert the Given Amount Into Moles 2H(NO 2 )+ Ba(OH) 2 2H 2 O +Ba(NO 2 ) g g g +2(15.999) g g 5.14 g x 1 mole g.109 moles
Find Moles for Each of the Other Chemicals 2H(NO 2 )+ Ba(OH) 2 2H 2 O +Ba(NO 2 ) g Moles? g g +2(15.999) g g 5.14 g x 1 mole g.109 moles
In Each of the Columns Write the Moles of Given (x) a Fraction 2H(NO 2 )+ Ba(OH) 2 2H 2 O +Ba(NO 2 ) g.109 moles x ?/? = g g +2(15.999) g g 5.14 g x 1 mole g.109 moles
The Numerator of the Fraction is the Coefficient of the That Column 2H(NO 2 )+ Ba(OH) 2 2H 2 O +Ba(NO 2 ) g.109 moles x 1/? =.109 moles x 2/? =.109 moles x 1/? = g g +2(15.999) g g 5.14 g x 1 mole g.109 moles
The Denominator of the Fraction is the Coefficient of the Given Column 2H(NO 2 )+ Ba(OH) 2 2H 2 O +Ba(NO 2 ) g.109 moles x ½ =.109 moles x 2/2 =.109 moles x ½ = g g +2(15.999) g g 5.14 g x 1 mole g.109 moles
Do Math and Label as Moles 2H(NO 2 )+ Ba(OH) 2 2H 2 O +Ba(NO 2 ) g.109 moles x ½ =.109 moles x 1 =.109 moles x ½ = g g +2(15.999) g g.0545 moles. 109 moles.0545 moles 5.14 g x 1 mole g.109 moles
Convert All Moles Into Grams 2H(NO 2 )+ Ba(OH) 2 2H 2 O +Ba(NO 2 ) g.109 moles x ½ =.109 moles x 1 =.109 moles x ½ = g g +2(15.999) g g.0545 moles. 109 moles.0545 moles g + 2(15.999) g + 2(1.0079) g g 2(1.0079) g g g g + 2(14.007) g + 4(15.999) g g 5.14 g x 1 mole g.0545 moles x g 1 1 mole.109 moles x g 1 1 mole.0545 moles x g 1 1 mole.109 moles 9.34 g1.96 g12.5 g
Verify the Law of Conservation and Mass 2H(NO 2 )+ Ba(OH) 2 2H 2 O +Ba(NO 2 ) g.109 moles x ½ =.109 moles x 1 =.109 moles x ½ = g g +2(15.999) g g.0545 moles. 109 moles.0545 moles g + 2(15.999) g + 2(1.0079) g g 2(1.0079) g g g g + 2(14.007) g + 4(15.999) g g 5.14 g x 1 mole g.0545 moles x g 1 1 mole.109 moles x g 1 1 mole.0545 moles x g 1 1 mole.109 moles 9.34 g1.96 g12.5 g g14.46 g
Answer 1.96 grams of water (H 2 O) are produced when 5.14 grams of Hydrogen Nitrite [H(NO 2 )] is reacted with Barium Hydroxide [Ba(OH) 2 ].
