Question

1. For the following chemical reaction, what mass of silver nitrate in grams will be needed to produce 2.71 mol of calcium nitrate? cai2+2agno3=2 agi+ca(no3)2

2.Given the following chemical equation, determine how many grams of N2 are produced by 9.29 g of H2O2 and 5.54 g of N2H4.

3.a) The balanced reaction equation for combustion of heptane, C7H16, is given below. If the reaction produced 40.5 g CO2, how many grams of heptane were burned?

C7H16+11O2-->7CO2+8H20

4.b) The reaction of limestone with hydrochloric acid is given below. If the reaction produced 40.5 g CO2, how many grams of HCl reacted?

CACO3+2HCl-->CaCl2+CO2+H2O

Explanation / Answer

1) CaI2 + 2AgNO3 -------> 2AgI + Ca(NO3)2

As per the balanced reaction 1 mole of calcium nitrate is formed by 2 moles of silver nitrate

Thus, 2.71 moles of calcium nitrate will be formed by 5.42 moles of silver nitrate

Now, molar mass of silver nitrate = 169.87 g/mole

Thus, mass of silver nitrate required = moles*molar mass = 5.42*169.87 = 920.6954 g

2) The question is wrong. If it is correct please provide the reaction beacause I think that he correct reaction is :-

5 N2H4 + 15 H2O2 = 10 HNO3 + 2 H20

3) C7H16 + 11O2 -----------> 7CO2 + 8H2O

Molar mass of CO2 = 44 g/mole

Thus, moles of CO2 produced = mass/molar mass = 40.5/44 = 0.92

Now, 7 moles of CO2 is produced by 1 mole of heptane

Thus, 0.92 moles of CO2 is produced by 0.92/7 = 0.1315 moles of heptane

Now, molar mass of heptane = 100 g/mole

Thus, mass of heptane burnt = 0.1315*100 = 13.15 g

4) CaCO3 + 2HCl ----------> CaCl2 + CO2 + H2O

Molar mass of CO2 = 44 g/mole

Thus, moles of CO2 produced = mass/molar mass = 40.5/44 = 0.92

Now, 1 mole of CO2 is produced by 2 moles of HCl

Thus, 0.92 moles of CO2 is produced by 1.841 moles of HCl

Now, molar mass of HCl = 36.5 g/mole

Thus, mass of HCl required = moles*molar mass = 1.841*36.5 = 67.19 g
