question
Composition Stoichiometry
answer
calculations involving the mass relationships of elements in compounds
question
Reaction Stoichiometry
answer
calculations involving the mass relationships between reactants and products in a chemical reaction
question
Mole Ratio
answer
a conversion factor that relates the amounts in moles of any two substances involved in a chemical reaction
question
Stoichiometry
answer
(chemistry) the relation between the quantities of substances that take part in a reaction or form a compound (typically a ratio of whole integers)
question
Limiting Reactant
answer
the reactant that limits the amounts of the other reactants that can combine and the amount of product that can form in a chemical reaction
question
Excess Reactant
answer
the substance that is not used up completely in a reaction
question
Percentage Yield
answer
the ratio of the actual yield to the theoretical yield multiplied by 100
question
Actual Yield
answer
the amount of product that actually forms when the reaction is carried out in the laboratory
question
Theoretical Yield
answer
the amount of product that could form during a reaction calculated from a balanced chemical equation; it represents the maximum amount of product that could be formed from a given amount of reactant
question
Given the Balanced Reaction: 2Al2O3(l) β†’ 4Al(s) + 3O2(g) How many moles of O2 will be formed if 10 moles of Al2O3 are used?
answer
15 moles of O2
question
Given the reaction: NH3(g) + O2(g) β†’ NO(g) + H2O(g) What is the limiting reactant when there are .5 moles of O2 and 1.5 moles of NH3 available to react? How much excess is there?
answer
O2, there is .1 moles of excess NH3.
question
If you have an actual yield of 72.3 g of product and the theoreticla yield is 78.7 g, what is your % yield?
answer
91.8%
