Consider the following series of balanced chemical reactions in the production of potassium bicarbonate, KHCO3: K2SO4 + 4 C -----------> K2S + 4 CO K2S + CaCO3 -----------> CaS + K2CO3 K2CO3 + H2O + CO2 ------------> 2 KHCO3 If potassium sulfate, K2SO4, is the limiting reactant, how many grams of KHCO3 can be produced from 65.00 g of K2SO4? For your calculation, use atomic masses that have been rounded to the closest hundredths of an amu (two places to the right of the decimal point).

Question

Consider the following series of balanced chemical reactions in the production of potassium bicarbonate, KHCO3:

K2SO4 + 4 C -----------> K2S + 4 CO

K2S + CaCO3 -----------> CaS + K2CO3

K2CO3 + H2O + CO2 ------------> 2 KHCO3

If potassium sulfate, K2SO4, is the limiting reactant, how many grams of KHCO3 can be produced from 65.00 g of K2SO4?

For your calculation, use atomic masses that have been rounded to the closest hundredths of an amu (two places to the right of the decimal point).
