Hello! I'd be happy to help you with your chemistry homework questions.
To solve these problems, you'll need to apply the concept of stoichiometry. Stoichiometry involves calculating the amount of reactants and products in a chemical reaction using balanced equations and molar ratios. Here's how you can approach each question:
1.) For the given reaction:
Ca(s) + Cl2(g) → CaCl2(s)
To calculate how many grams of the product (CaCl2) form when 18.4g of Ca completely reacts, you need to follow these steps:
Step 1: Write and balance the chemical equation:
The balanced equation tells you the molar ratio between Ca and CaCl2. From the equation, you can see that the ratio is 1:1, meaning 1 mole of Ca reacts with 1 mole of CaCl2.
Step 2: Convert grams to moles:
Use the molar mass of Ca (40.08 g/mol) to convert the given mass (18.4g) to moles.
18.4g Ca * (1 mol Ca / 40.08 g Ca) = 0.459 mol Ca
Step 3: Use the mole ratio from the balanced equation:
Since the ratio between Ca and CaCl2 is 1:1, the moles of CaCl2 formed will also be 0.459 mol.
Step 4: Convert moles to grams:
Use the molar mass of CaCl2 (110.98 g/mol) to convert the moles of CaCl2 to grams.
0.459 mol CaCl2 * (110.98 g CaCl2 / 1 mol CaCl2) = 50.9 g CaCl2
Therefore, the answer is 50.9 grams.
Now, let's apply the same approach to the remaining questions.
2.) For the given reaction:
2K(s) + Br2(l) → 2KBr(s)
To calculate the grams of the product (KBr) formed when 18.4g of Br2 completely reacts, follow the steps:
Step 1: Write and balance the chemical equation:
Step 2: Convert grams to moles:
Step 3: Use the mole ratio from the balanced equation:
Step 4: Convert moles to grams:
Answer: ?
3.) For the given reaction:
4Cr(s) + 3O2(g) → 2Cr2O3(s)
To calculate the grams of the product (Cr2O3) formed when 18.4g of O2 completely reacts, follow the steps:
Step 1: Write and balance the chemical equation:
Step 2: Convert grams to moles:
Step 3: Use the mole ratio from the balanced equation:
Step 4: Convert moles to grams:
Answer: ?
4.) For the given reaction:
2Sr(s) + O2(g) → 2SrO(s)
To calculate the grams of the product (SrO) formed when 18.4g of Sr completely reacts, follow the steps:
Step 1: Write and balance the chemical equation:
Step 2: Convert grams to moles:
Step 3: Use the mole ratio from the balanced equation:
Step 4: Convert moles to grams:
Answer: ?

2.) For the reaction, calculate how many grams of the product form when 18.4g of Br2 completely reacts.
Assume that there is more than enough of the other reactant.
2K(s)+Br2(l)→2KBr(s)
mols Br2 = grams/molar mass = estimated 0.1 but you should be more accurate than that.
Use the coefficients in the balanced equation to convert mols Br2 to mols KBr. That will be about 0.1 x (2 mol KBr/1 mol Br2) = estimated 0.2
Then convert mols KBr to g. g = mols x molar mass = about 0.2 x 119 = about 24.
ALL of these are worked the same way. The way I worked #2 will work all of them. I don't understand how you could do 1 and not do the others.
