Unit: Stoichiometry Topic: Mass Calculations Objectives: Day 1 of 4 To learn how to perform mass calculations in chemical reactions (calculations that involve grams and chemical reactions)

3 Quickwrite Answer one of the questions below 1-2 sentences:
In chemistry, we count by weighing moles; We can’t measure moles in a lab, BUT what unit of measurement can we use in the lab to count atoms or molecules??? Or what tool of measurement do we use in class to measure moles??? Review: Using the equation below, What is the mole ratio between water and oxygen gas, in other words, 2 moles of H2O will produce how many moles of O2? 2H2O(l) → 2H2(g) + 1O2(g)

4 Stoichiometry Chemistry is really all about reactions
Reactions involve the rearrangement of atoms The calculation of the quantities of chemical elements or compounds involved in chemical reactions is called Stoichiometry It is the MOLES in the balanced chemical equation that enables us to determine just how much product forms 2H2O(l) → 2H2(g) + 1O2(g) In other words, if I have 2 moles of water (36 grams of water), then I can produce 1 mole of oxygen (32 grams of oxygen)

8 Mass Calculations We just saw how to use balanced equations for a reaction to calculate the numbers of moles Remember, moles represent numbers of molecules and we cannot count molecules directly In chemistry, we count by weighing!!!!!!!! We don’t have a machine to count atoms, BUT, we do have a convenient tool for measuring atoms, it is called the GRAM!!!! When we weigh we use the gram, therefore we need to learn how to convert moles to mass

9 Mass Calculations Let’s consider an unbalanced combustion reaction in which propane reacts with oxygen to produce carbon dioxide and water C3H8(g) + O2(g) → CO2(g) + H2O(g) What mass of oxygen will be required to react exactly with 44.1 grams of propane?

10 Mass Calculations First, we need to balance the equation:
C3H8(g) + 5O2(g) → 3CO2(g) + 4H2O(g) Let’s summarize what we know and what we want to find What we know: The balanced equation for the reaction The mass or amount of propane availible(44.1g) What we want to calculate: The mass of oxygen required to react exactly with all the propane

11 C3H8(g) + 5O2(g) → 3CO2(g) + 4H2O(g)
Mass Calculations 44.1 g propane requires ??? Grams of O2 C3H8(g) + 5O2(g) → 3CO2(g) + 4H2O(g) Our overall plan of attack is as follows: We are given the number of grams of propane, so we must convert to moles of propane (C3H8), because the balanced equation deals in moles not grams Next, we can use the coefficients in the balanced equation to determine the moles of oxygen(O2) required Finally, we will use the molar mass of O2 to calculate grams of oxygen

12 C3H8(g) + 5O2(g) → 3CO2(g) + 4H2O(g)
Our Plan of Attack! We are given grams of propane We have to convert grams of propane into moles Use mole ratio 2 convert moles of propane into moles of O2 We have to convert moles into grams of O2 44.1 g propane ? moles of propane ? moles of O2 ? Grams of O2 44.1 g C3H8 requires ?? g O2 C3H8(g) O2(g) → 3CO2(g) H2O(g)

13 C3H8(g) + 5O2(g) → 3CO2(g) + 4H2O(g)
Next, we can use the coefficients in the balanced equation to determine the moles of oxygen(O2) required Finally, we will use the molar mass of O2 to calculate grams of oxygen We are given the number of grams of propane, so we must convert to moles of propane (C3H8), because the balanced equation deals in moles not grams 44.1 g C3H8 1 mol C3H8 32.0 g O2 5 mol O2 = 160 g of O2 44.09 g C3H8 1 mol O2 1 mol C3H8

26 Topic: Limiting Reactant
Unit: Stoichiometry Topic: Limiting Reactant Objectives: Day 2 of 4 To learn what the limiting reactant is in a chemical reaction To learn how to calculate the limiting reactant using moles of reactants

27 Quickwrite Answer one of the questions below 1-2 sentences:
A sandwich recipe requires 2 pieces of bread, 3 slices of meat and 1 slice of cheese; you go into the kitchen and realize that you have 2 pieces of bread, 1 slice of cheese, and NO MEAT; what limited affected your ability to make your sandwich???

28 Limiting Reactants Earlier, we discussed a recipe that dealt with making cakes Recall, that the recipe is: 2 eggs + 2 cups of flour + 1 cup of sugar → 1 cake In this equation, all the products are used up, nothing was left over Now assume you visit your kitchen one day and find the following quantities of ingredients

29 Limiting Reactants Now assume you came to work one day and found the following quantities of ingredients 8 eggs 6 cups of flour 7 cups of sugar How many cakes can you make? What will be left over

30 Limiting Reactants Eggs: Flour: Sugar:
To solve this problem, let’s see how many sandwiches we can make with each ingredient: Eggs: Flour: Sugar: How many CAKES can you make? The answer is 2! Once you run out of EGGS, you must stop making CAKE, The EGGS are the limiting ingredient or reactant! 4 eggs = 2 cakes 1 cake 2 eggs 6 cups of flour 1 cake = 3 cakes 2 cups of flour 7 cups of sugar = 7 cakes 1 cake 1 cup of sugar

31 Limiting Reactants When molecules react with each other to form products, considerations very similar to those making sandwiches arise Consider the reaction that occurs when Hydrogen Gas reacts with oxygen gas to form water H2(gas) H2O(liquid) + O2(gas)

32 Limiting Reactants The reaction occurs between 10 H2 molecules and 7 O2 molecules Remember, each O2 molecule requires 2 H2 molecules 2H2(gas) H2O(liquid) + O2(gas)

33 Limiting Reactants After the reaction, 10 water molecules formed and 2 O2 molecules are left over That is, the H2 molecules are used up before the water molecules are consumed We have excess (extra) O2 and H2 is the limiting reactant because the reaction runs out of H2 first 2H2(gas) H2O(liquid) + O2(gas)

34 What is the Limiting Reactant?
The _______ that is completely _________ or used up when a reaction is run to completion The reactant that is not completely consumed is in _____ Answer Bank Moles consumed product Limiting reactant excess

35 Practice: Consider the reaction: N2 + 3 H2  2 NH3
What is the limiting reactant if 2 moles of Nitrogen gas react with 7 moles of hydrogen gas???? Given: 2 mole of N2 7 mol of H2 Take the moles of each reactant given and divide it by the coefficient (or moles) of the balanced equation. What is the limiting reactant? 2 < 2.3, So N2 is the limiting reactant because it has the lowest ratio!!!!!!!!!!!!!! 7 moles of H2 3 moles of H2 = 2.3 moles of H2 2 moles of N2 1 moles of N2 = 2.0 moles of N2

36 Practice: Consider the reaction: N2 + 3 H2  2 NH3
What is the limiting reactant if you have 3 moles of N2 and 6 moles of H2 Given: 3 mole of N2 6 mol of H2 2 < 3, Sooooo, H2 is the limiting reactant because it has the lowest ratio!!!!!!!!!!!!!! 6 moles of H2 3 moles of H2 = 2 moles of H2 3 moles of N2 1 moles of N2 = 3 moles of N2

37 Calculations that involve a Limiting Reactant
Consider the following reaction CH4(g) + H2O(g) → 3H2(g) + CO(g) What mass of water is required to react exactly with 249 grams of methane? In other words, how much water will use up 249 grams of methane?

38 Calculations that involve a Limiting Reactant
This result means that if 249 grams of methane is mixed with 279 grams of water, Both reactants will “run out” at the same time On the other hand, if 249 grams of methane is With 300 grams of water, the methane will be Used up before the water; therefore, the methane Is the limiting reactant and the water is in excess Consider the following reaction CH4(g) + H2O(g) → 3H2(g) + CO(g) What mass of water is required to react exactly with 249 grams of methane? In other words, how much water will use up 249 grams of methane? 249 g CH4 1 mol CH4 18.02 g H2O 1 mol H2O = 279 g of H2O 16.04 g CH4 1 mol H2O 1 mol CH4

39 Practice: This reaction is different from the others we have done So far in that we are mixing specified amounts of Two reactants together. To know how much product Forms we must we must determine which reactant is consumed first. In other words, we must determine The limiting reactant Suppose 25 grams of nitrogen reacted with 5 grams of hydrogen gas are mixed and react to form ammonia. Calculate the mass of ammonia produced when this reaction is run to completion N2(g) + 3H2(g) → 2NH3(g)

40 Practice: First we calculate the moles of the two reactants present : Suppose 25 grams of nitrogen reacted with 5 grams of hydrogen gas are mixed and react to form ammonia. Calculate the mass of ammonia produced when this reaction is run to completion N2(g) + 3H2(g) → 2NH3(g) 25.0 g N2 1 mol N2 = .892 moles of N2 28.0 g N2 5.0 g H2 1 mol H2 = 2.48 moles of H2 2.016 g H2

41 Practice: Now we must determine which
reactant is the limiting reactant. We have moles of nitrogen Let’s determine how many moles of hydrogen Are required to react with this much nitrogen. Because 1 mol of nitrogen reacts with 3 mol of Hydrogen, the number of moles of hydrogen we Need to react completely with mol of nitrogen is calculated as follows: Practice: Suppose 25 grams of nitrogen reacted with 5 grams of hydrogen gas are mixed and react to form ammonia. Calculate the mass of ammonia produced when this reaction is run to completion N2(g) + 3H2(g) → 2NH3(g) 0.892 mol N2 3 mol H2 = 2.68 moles of H2 1 mol N2 Is nitrogen or hydrogen the limiting reactant? The answer comes from the comparison: 2.48 moles of H2 available < 2.68 moles of H2 required This means that the hydrogen will be consumed first before the nitrogen Runs out, so hydrogen is the limiting reactant

42 Reflect: We see that mol of nitrogen require 2.68 mol Of hydrogen to react completely. However, only 2.48 Mol of hydrogen are available. This means that the hydrogen will be consumed before the nitrogen runs out, so Hydrogen Is the limiting reactant If the nitrogen is excess, then the hydrogen will run out first. Again we find that the hydrogen limits the amount of ammonia Formed Because the moles of hydrogen are limiting, we must use Our quantity of Hydrogen to determine the moles of ammonia that can form Practice: Suppose 25 grams of nitrogen reacted with 5 grams of hydrogen gas are mixed and react to form ammonia. Calculate the mass of ammonia produced when this reaction is run to completion N2(g) + 3H2(g) → 2NH3(g) 25.0 g N2 2.48 mol H2 2 mol NH3 = 28.1 g of NH3 17.0 g NH3 3 mol H2 1 mol NH3

43 Practice: Homework #7 = 0.12 = 0.30 = 0.15 = 14.0g of NaCl
Consider the reaction: CuCl2+2NaNO3Cu(NO3)2+2NaCl Determine the limiting reactant if 15.6 grams of CuCl2 react with 25.2 grams of NaNO3. How many grams of sodium chloride, NaCl, can be formed? 15.6 g CuCl2 25.2 g NaNO3 STEP 1: Convert Grams to Moles for each reactant 1 mol CuCl2 = 0.12 moles of CuCl2 1 mol NaNO3 = 0.30 moles of NaNO3 134.5 g CuCl2 85.0 g NaNO3 STEP 2: Use one of my mole values from my previous step = 0.15 moles of CuCl2 1 mol CuCl2 0.3 mol NaNO3 2 mol NaNO3 STEP 3: Use moles of limiting reactant to determine how many grams of NaCl will form: 2 mol NaCl = 14.0g of NaCl 0.12 moles CuCl2 58.44 g NaCl 1 mole CuCl2 1 mol NaCl

44 Summarize: When determining the limiting reactant we first convert mass into_____ The smaller molar value of the reactants is the _____ reactant and the larger molar value of the reactants is in excess The limiting reactant will determine how much ______ will form Answer Bank Moles consumed product Limiting reactant excess

45 Topic: Theoretical & Percent Yield

46 Quickwrite Answer one of the questions below 1-2 sentences:
Chemists who work for companies like to know how efficient a reaction is, in other words, they would like to know how much product forms after a reaction runs to completion; why do you think chemists would want to know this???

47 Percent Yield If you recall, the amount of product formed is determined by the limiting reactant The amount of product calculated using stoichiometry is called the theoretical yield The theoretical yield is the amount of product predicted from the amounts of reactants used up Think of it as the maximum amount of product that could be produced from 100% of the reactants being used up The theoretical yield is rarely if ever actually obtained

48 What is the theoretical yield?
The ________ maximum amount of product that can be formed when the limiting reactant is completely used up or ________ It is calculated using ___________ calculated Answer Bank actual Consumed percentage stoichiometry Calculated theoretical consumed stoichiometry

49 Percent Yield Why is the theoretical yield never reached?
One reason for this is the presence of side reactions that consume some of the reactants The actual yield of product, which is the amount of product actually obtained, is compared to the theoretical yield This comparison, called the percent yield, is expressed as a percent The percent yield is calculated by dividing the actual yield / by the theoretical yield Percent yield = Actual yield x 100% Theoretical yield

50 What is the percent yield?
The ______ (experimental) yield of a product given as a _________ over the __________ yield Percent yield = Actual yield x 100% Theoretical yield actual percentage theoretical Answer Bank actual Consumed percentage stoichiometry Calculated theoretical

51 Practice: Consider the balanced reaction below:
2H2(g) + CO (g) → CH3OH(l) Suppose 68.5 grams of CO is reacted with 8.6 grams of H2 Calculate the theoretical yield of methanol CH3OH(l) Your experiment actually produces 35.7 grams of methanol CH3OH(l) What is the percent yield of methanol CH3OH(l) ?

52 Step 1: Calculate the moles of reactants
Practice: Step 1: Calculate the moles of reactants Consider the balanced reaction below: 2H2(g) + CO (g) → CH3OH(l) Suppose 68.5 grams of CO is reacted with 8.6 grams of H2 Calculate the theoretical yield of methanol CH3OH(l) 68.5 g CO = 2.45 moles of CO 1 mol CO 28.01 g CO 8.60 g H2 = 4.27 moles of H2 1 mol H2 2.016 g H2

53 The answer comes from the comparison:
Practice: Step 2: Now we determine which reactant is limiting using The mole ratio of between CO and H2 Consider the balanced reaction below: 2H2(g) + CO (g) → CH3OH(l) Suppose 68.5 grams of CO is reacted with 8.6 grams of H2 Calculate the theoretical yield of methanol CH3OH(l) 2.45 mol CO = 4.9 moles of H2 2 mol H2 1 mol CO Is CO or H2 the limiting reactant? The answer comes from the comparison: 4.27 moles of H2 present < 4.9 moles of H2 needed to react with all the CO This means that the hydrogen will be consumed first before the CO Runs out, so hydrogen is the limiting reactant

54 Practice: Consider the balanced reaction below:
Step 3: Now that we have determined the Limiting reactant, we can determine the theoretical yield of methanol Consider the balanced reaction below: 2H2(g) + CO (g) → CH3OH(l) Suppose 68.5 grams of CO is reacted with 8.6 grams of H2 Calculate the theoretical yield of methanol CH3OH(l) 4.27 mol H2 = grams of CH3OH 1 mol CH3OH(l) 32.04 g CH3OH 2 mol H2 1 mol CH3OH 68.14 represents the theoretical yield Which if you recall, is the maximum amount of a given product that can be formed when the limiting reactant is completely used up or consumed

55 Practice: Consider the balanced reaction below:
Step 4: Calculate percent yield by dividing the actual yield (35.7 g) by the theoretical yield (68.6 g) Consider the balanced reaction below: 2H2(g) + CO (g) → CH3OH(l) Suppose 68.5 grams of CO is reacted with 8.6 grams of H2 Calculate the theoretical yield of methanol CH3OH(l) Your experiment actually produces 35.7 grams of methanol CH3OH(l) Percent yield = 35.7 g CH3OH x100 = 52% 68.6 g CH3OH

If 350 grams of lead (IV) sulfide reacts with 100 grams of oxygen gas, how many grams of lead (IV) oxide are produced? (theoretical yield) What are the limiting and excess reactants? What is the percent yield if your experimental procedure produces grams of lead (IV) oxide? chloride? 350 g PbS2 Because 1.3 > 1.0, (O2) oxygen gas is your limiting reactant, In other words, In order to be completely used up, 3.1 mole of (O2) requires 1.0 moles of PbS2 and we have 1.3 moles of PbS2 so clearly we have enough PbS2 so (O2) oxygen gas is the limiting reactant 100 g O2 STEP 1: Convert Grams to Moles for each reactant 1 mol PbS2 1 mol O2 = 1.30 moles of PbS2 = 3.1 moles of O2 271.3g PbS2 32.0 g O2 STEP 2: Use one of the mole values from my previous step 1 mol PbS2 3.1 mol O2 = 1.03 moles of PbS2 3 mol O2 247.2g of PbO2 is your Theoretical Yield!!!!!
