Stoichiometry – Ch 9 Limiting/Excess Reactants and Percent Yield
Limiting Reactants • Available Ingredients • 4 slices of bread • 1 jar of peanut butter • ½ jar of jelly • Limiting Reactant: bread • Excess Reactants: peanut butter and jelly
Limiting Reactants • Limiting Reactant • Used up in a reaction • Determines the amount of product • Excess Reactant • Added to ensure that the other reactant is completely used up • Cheaper and easier to recycle
Limiting Reactants • Write a balanced equation. • For each reactant, calculate the amount of product formed. • Smaller answer indicates: • Limiting Reactant • Amount of product
Limiting Reactants 79.1 g of zinc react with 2.25 moles of HCl. Indentify the limiting and excess reactants. How many liters of hydrogen are formed at STP? Zn + 2HCl ZnCl2 + H2 79.1 g 2.25 mole ? L
Limiting Reactants Zn + 2HCl ZnCl2 + H2 79.1 g 2.25 mole ? L 79.1 g Zn x 1mol Zn x1 mol H2x22.4 L H2 1 65 g Zn 1 mol Zn 1 mol H2 = 27.3 L H2
Limiting Reactants Zn + 2HCl ZnCl2 + H2 79.1 g 2.25 mole ? L 2.25 mol HCl x 1 mol H2 x 22.4 L H2 1 2 mol HCl 1 mol H2 = 25. 2 L H2
Limiting Reactants Starting with Zn – 27.3 L H2 Starting with HCl – 25.2 L H2 Limiting Reactant: HCl Excess Reactant: Zn Product Formed: 25.2 L H2
Percent Yield % yield = actual yield (measure in lab) x 100 theoretical yield (calculate)
Percent Yield When 45.8 g of K2CO3 react with excess HCl, 46.3 g of KCl are formed. Calculate the theoretical and percent yields of KCl. K2CO3 + 2HCl 2KCl + H2O + CO2 45.8 g ? g 46.3 g (actual yield)
Percent Yield K2CO3 + 2HCl 2KCl + H2O + CO2 45.8 g ? g (theoretical yield) 46.3 g (actual yield) Theoretical yield: 45.8 g K2CO3 x 1mol K2CO3x 2 mol KCl x 74.5 g KCl 1 138 g K2CO3 1 mol K2CO3 1 mol KCl = 49. 5 g KCl
Percent Yield K2CO3 + 2HCl 2KCl + H2O + CO2 45.8 g 49.5 g (theoretical yield) 46.3 g (actual yield) % yield = 46.3 x 100 = 93.5% 49.5
