Compute the mass of caso4 that can be prepared by the reaction of 3.2900g of h2so4 with 3.1660g of caco3

Answer : The mass of produced will be, 4.302 grams.

Explanation : Given,

Mass of = 3.2900 g

Mass of = 3.1660 g

Molar mass of = 98.079 g/mole

Molar mass of = 100.087 g/mole

Molar mass of = 136.14 g/mole

First we have to calculate the moles of and .

Now we have to calculate the limiting and excess reagent.

The balanced chemical reaction is,

From the balanced reaction we conclude that

As, 1 mole of react with 1 mole of

So, 0.0316 moles of react with 0.0316 moles of

From this we conclude that, is an excess reagent because the given moles are greater than the required moles and is a limiting reagent and it limits the formation of product.

Now we have to calculate the moles of .

As, 1 mole of react to give 1 moles of

So, 0.0316 moles of react to give 0.0316 moles of

Now we have to calculate the mass of .

Therefore, the mass of produced will be, 4.302 grams.
