  1. Calculating Reacting Masses HIGHER LESSON

  2. Learning Objectives HIGHER LESSON • To explain what chemical equations tell us about chemical reactions • To explain how we use equations to calculate masses of reactants and products

  3. Starter Activity HIGHER LESSON • Balance the below equations: • Mg + O2 MgO • AgNO3 + MgCl2  AgCl + Mg(NO3)2 ANSWERS • 2Mg + O2 2MgO • 2AgNO3 + MgCl2  2AgCl + Mg(NO3)2

  4. To explain what chemical equations tell us about chemical reactions Key Question HIGHER LESSON Why do we need to balance chemical equations? DISCUSS 1 MINUTE

  5. To explain what chemical equations tell us about chemical reactions Balanced Equations HIGHER LESSON • They tell us how much of each substance is involved in a chemical reaction 2H2 + O2 2H2O 2 moles of hydrogen react with 1 mole of oxygen to make 2 moles of water • This is useful because now we can use it to work out what mass of hydrogen and oxygen we need and how much water is made

  6. To explain what chemical equations tell us about chemical reactions 2H2 + O2 2H2O HIGHER LESSON Masses in the equation • 2moles of hydrogen = 2x 2g = 4g • 1 mole of oxygen = 1 x 16g = 16g • 2 moles of water = 2 x 18g = 36g

  7. To explain what chemical equations tell us about chemical reactions Task HIGHER LESSON • Balance and explain in terms of moles and mass what is happening in the reaction • Mg + HCl MgCl2 + H2 • NaOH + Cl2  NaOCl + NaCl + H2O

  8. To explain what chemical equations tell us about chemical reactions Answers HIGHER LESSON • Mg + 2HCl  MgCl2 + H2 1 mole of magnesium reacts with 2 moles of hydrochloric acid to produce 1 mole of magnesium chloride and 1 mole of hydrogen. 1 mole of Magnesium = 24g 1 mole of magnesium chloride = 95g 2 moles of hydrochloric acid = 73g 1 mole of hydrogen = 2g • 2NaOH + Cl2  NaOCl + NaCl + H2O 2 moles of sodium hydroxide reacts with 1 mole of chlorine to produce 1 mole of sodium hypochlorite, 1 mole of sodium chloride and 1 mole of water 2 moles of sodium hydroxide = 80g 1 mole of sodium hypochloite = 74.5g 1 mole of chlorine= 71g 1 mole of sodium chloride = 58.5g 1 mole of water = 18g

  9. To explain how we use equations to calculate masses of reactants and products How Much? HIGHER LESSON We need balanced chemical equations so we know how much of two chemicals to react together. If we have too much of a reactant it will be wasted If we have too little of a reactant not all of the other reactant will react

  10. But first if you do not have……. • Write down every equation from this triangle. Or • Draw the triangle.

  11. To explain how we use equations to calculate masses of reactants and products Worked Example 1 HIGHER LESSON If we have a solution containing 100g of sodium hydroxide, how much chlorine gas should we pass through the solution to make bleach? 2NaOH + Cl2  NaOCl + NaCl + H2O NaOH = 40g Cl2 = 71g So 100g of sodium hydroxide is 100 ÷ 40 = 2.5 moles The chemical equation tells us that for every 2moles of sodium hydroxide we need one mole of chlorine. So we need2.5 ÷ 2 = 1.25 moles of chlorine So we’ll need 1.25 x 71g = 88.75g of chlorine to react with 100g of sodium hydroxide STEP 1 : Balance the equation STEP 2 : Work out the mass of 1 mole STEP 3 : Work out moles of the mass in the question STEP 4 : Calculate the number of moles you need of the other reactant STEP 5 : Multiply the number of moles needed by the mass of 1 mole substance

  12. To explain how we use equations to calculate masses of reactants and products Worked Example 2 HIGHER LESSON You start with a solution containing 0.95g of magnesium chloride. You add silver nitrate. If all the magnesium chloride reacts, how much silver chloride could be made? 2AgNO3 + MgCl2  2AgCl + Mg(NO3)2 MgCl2 = 95gAgCl = 143.5g So 0.95g of Magnesium chloride is 0.95g ÷ 95g = 0.01 moles The chemical equation tells us that for every 1 mole of magnesium chloride we need 2 moles of silver chloride 0.01 x 2 = 0.02 moles of silver chloride 0.02 x 143.5g = 2.87g

  13. To explain how we use equations to calculate masses of reactants and products Task HIGHER LESSON • Zinc oxide is heated with carbon to make zinc and carbon monoxide. How much zinc oxide do you need to make 130g of zinc? • A student adds 4.8g of magnesium to excess dilute hydrochloric acid. What mass of magnesium chloride would be made? • If you add 5.5g of sodium carbonate to excess dilute sulphuric acid, what mass of sodium sulphate would be made? 162g 19g 7.1g (rounded) 7.3g (un rounded throughout question)
