Answer:

The mass of hydrogen gas formed is 0.205 grams

Explanation:

<u>Step 1:</u> Data given

Mass of 1.83 grams of Al

Mass of NaOH = 4.30 grams

Molar mass of Al = 26.98 g/mol

Molar mass of NaOH = 40 g/mol

<u>Step 2:</u> The balanced equation:

2 Al(s) + 2 NaOH(aq) + 6 H2O(l) → 2 NaAl(OH)4(aq) + 3 H2(g)

<u>Step 3:</u> Calculate moles of Al

Moles Al = mass Al / Molar mass Al

Moles Al = 1.83 grams / 26.98 g/mol

Moles Al = 0.0678 moles

<u>Step 4:</u> Calculate moles of NaOH

Moles NaOH = 4.30 grams / 40 g/mol

Moles NaOH = 0.1075 moles

<u>Step 5</u>: Calculate limiting reactant

For 2 moles of Al, we need 2 moles of NaOH

Aluminium is the limiting reactant. It will completely be consumed ( 0.0678 moles)

NaOH is in excess. There will react 0.0678 moles

There will remain 0.1075 - 0.0678 = 0.0397 moles

<u>Step 6</u>: Calculate moles of hydrogen

For 2 moles of Al, we need 2 moles of NaOH, to produce 3 moles of hydrogen

For 0.0678 moles of Al, there is produced 0.0678 *3/2 = 0.1017 moles of H2

<u>Step 7</u>: Calculate mass of H2

Mass of H2 = Moles H2 * Molar mass of H2

Mass of H2 = 0.1017 moles * 2.02 g/mol

Mass of H2 = 0.205 grams

The mass of hydrogen gas formed is 0.205 grams

One of the commercial uses of sulfuric acid is the production of calcium sulfate and phosphoric acid. If 26.8 g of Ca₃(PO₄)₂ rea
d1i1m1o1n [39]

Answer:

The percent yield reaction is 64.3%

Explanation:

This is the ballanced reaction

Ca₃(PO₄)₂ (s) + 3H₂SO₄ (aq) → 2H₃PO₄ (aq) + 3CaSO₄ (aq)

Let's determine the moles of our reactants:

Mass / Molar mass = Mol

26.8 g / 310.18 g/m = 0.0864 moles of phosphate.

54.3 g / 98.06 g/m = 0.554 moles of sulfuric

1 mol of phosphate reacts with 3 mol of sulfuric so

0.0864 mol of PO₄⁻³ will react with (0.0864 .3)/1 = 0.259 moles

I have 0.554 of sulfuric, so this is the reactant in excess.

The limiting reagent is the Phosphate.

1 mol of PO₄⁻³ produces 2 mol of phosphoric

0.0864 of PO₄⁻³ will produce the double amount (0.0864 .2) = 0.173 moles

Mol . molar mass = Mass

0.173 m . 97.98g/m = 16.95 g (This is the theoretical yield)

Percent yield = (Produced / Theoretical) .100

(10.9 g / 16.95 g) . 100 = 64.3 %
