Question

   Answer all parts of the following questions on Particle Stoichiometry.

Answer 1

1. Translate, predict the products, and balance the equation above. 

Li + Cu(NO3)2 = Li(NO3)2 + Cu

2. How many particles of lithium are needed to produce 125 g of copper? 

125 g Cu ( 1 mol / 63.55 g ) (1 mol Li / 1 mol Cu ) ( 6.022 x 10^23 particles / 1 mol ) = 1.18x10^24 Li particles

3. How many grams of lithium nitrate are produced from 4.83E24 particles of copper (II) nitrate?

4.83E24 particles of copper (II) nitrate ( 1 mol / 6.022x10^23 particles ) (1 mol Li(NO3)2 / 1 mol Cu(NO3)2 ) ( 130.95 g / 1 mol ) = 1043.77 grams Li(NO3)2
