Question
Many metals react with oxygen gas to form
the metal oxide. For example, calcium
reacts as follows: 2Ca(s) +O2 (g) →2CaO(s)
[molar mass of Ca = 40 g/mol] You wish to
calculate the mass (g) of calcium oxide that
can be prepared from 4.20 g of Ca and 2.80
g of O2. (a) What amount (mol) of CaO can
be produced from the given mass of Ca? (b)
What amount (mol) of CaO can be
produced from the given mass of O2? (c)
Which is the limiting reactant? (d) How
many grams of CaO can be produced?
