Answer:
Theoretical yield = 2.5 g
Explanation:
Given data:
Mass of sodium = 79.7 g
Mass of water = 45.3 g
Theoretical yield of hydrogen gas = ?
Solution:
Chemical equation:
2Na + 2H₂O → 2NaOH + H₂
Number of moles of sodium:
Number of moles = mass/ molar mass
Number of moles = 79.7 g / 23 g/mol
Number of moles = 3.5 mol
Number of moles of water:
Number of moles = mass/ molar mass
Number of moles = 45.3 g / 18g/mol
Number of moles = 2.5 mol
Now we will compare the moles of hydrogen gas with water and sodium.
H₂O : H₂
2 : 1
2.5 : 1/2×2.5 =1.25 mol
Na : H₂
2 : 1
3.5 : 1/2×3.5 =1.75 mol
water will be limiting reactant.
Theoretical yield:
Mass = number of moles × molar mass
Mass = 1.25 mol × 2 g/mol
Mass = 2.5 g
