Urea, CH4N2O (s), is manufactured from NH3 (g) and CO2 (g). H2O (l) is another product of this reaction. An experiment is starte

d with 2.6 grams of NH3 (g) added into a reaction vessel with CO2 (g).
Write the balanced equation for this reaction, being sure to include physical states. Based on the balanced equation above, calculate the following:
a. the theoretical yield of urea in grams that can be made from the NH3
b. the actual amount of urea made if the percent yield for this reaction is 34%.

Answer:

a. 4.41 g of Urea

b. 1.5 g of Urea

Explanation:

To start the problem, we define the reaction:

2NH₃ (g) +  CO₂ (g) → CH₄N₂O (s)  +  H₂O(l)

We only have mass of ammonia, so we assume the carbon dioxide is in excess and ammonia is the limiting reactant:

2.6 g . 1mol / 17g = 0.153 moles of ammonia

Ratio is 2:1. 2 moles of ammonia can produce 1 mol of urea

0.153 moles ammonia may produce, the half of moles

0153 /2 = 0.076 moles of urea

To state the theoretical yield we convert moles to mass:

0.076 mol . 58 g/mol = 4.41 g

That's the 100 % yield reaction

If the percent yield, was 34%:

4.41 g . 0.34 = 1.50 g of urea were produced.

Formula is (Yield produced / Theoretical yield) . 100 → Percent yield
