Question

For each of the reactions, calculate how many grams of the product form when 17.8 g of the reactant in color completely reacts. Assume there is more than enough of the other reactant. Ca(s) + Cl_2(g) rightarrow CaCl_2(s) 2 K(s) + Br_2(l) rightarrow 2 KBr(s) 4 Cr(s) + 3O_2(g) rightarrow 2 Cr_2O_3(s) 2 Sr(s) + O_2(g) rightarrow 2 SrO(s) For the reaction shown, calculate how many grams of each product form when the given amount of each reactant completely reacts to form products. Assume there is more than

Explanation / Answer

a)
Ca + Cl2 ------------------> CaCl2

40 g                                  111 g

17.8 g                                 ?

40 g Ca --------------------> 111 g CaCl2

17.8 g Ca ---------------------> 17.8 x 111 / 40 = 49.4 g

mass of product = 49.4 g

b)

159.8 g Br2 --------------------> 238 g KBr

17.8 g Br2 ---------------------> 238 x 17.8 / 159.8 = 26.5 g

mass of product = 26.5 g

c)

96 g O2 -----------------------> 304 g Cr2O3

17.8 g O2 -------------------> ?

mass of product = 56.4 g

d)

175.2 g Sr -------------------> 207.2 g SrO

17.8 g Sr ---------------------> ?

mass of product = 21.0 g
