What amount of the excess reagent remains after the reaction is complete? grams Submit Answer Try Another Version 10 item attempts remaining

Explanation / Answer

Ba(OH)2 + H2SO4 -------> BaSO4 + 2H2O

according to balanced reaction

171.34 g Ba(OH)2 reacts with 98 g H2SO4  

69.8 g Ba(OH)2 reacts with 69.8 x 98 / 171.34 = 40.0 g H2SO4

but we have 38.0 g H2SO4. means H2SO4 is limiting reagent .

Limting reagent = H2SO4

now

98 g H2SO4 gives 233.38 g BaSO4

38 g H2SO4 gives 38 x 233.38 / 98 = 90.49 g BaSO4

mass of BaSO4 formed = 90.49 g

calculating exess reagent

98 g H2SO4 reacts with 171.34 g Ba(OH)2  

38 g H2SO4 reacts with 38 x 171.34 / 98 = 66.44 g Ba(OH)2

exess Ba(OH)2 left = 69.8 - 66.44 = 3.36 g
