Although many sulfate salts are soluble in water, calcium sulfate is not (Table 7. 1). Therefore, a solution of calcium chloride will react with sodium sulfate solution to produce a precipitate of calcium sulfate. The balanced equation is :math>CaCl2(aq)+Na2SO4(aq)CaSO4(s)+2NaCl(aq) a solution containing 5.21 g of calcium chloride is combined with a solution containing 4.95 g of sodium sulfate, which is the limiting reactant? Which reactant is present in excess?
Lead(II) carbonate, also called “white lead,” was formerly used as a pigment in white paints. However, because of its toxicity, lead can no longer he used in paints intended for residential homes. Lead(II) carbonate is prepared industrially by reaction of aqueous lead(II) acetate with carbon dioxide gas. The unbalanced equation is :math>Pb(C2H3O2)2(aq)+H2O(l)+CO2(g)PbCO3(s)+HC2H3O2(aq) ppose an aqueous solution containing 1.25 g of lead(II) acetate is treated with 5.95 g of carbon dioxide. Calculate the theoretical yield of lead carbonate.
Alkali metal hydroxides are sometimes used to “scrub” excess carbon dioxide from the air in closed spaces (such as submarines and spacecraft). For example, lithium hydroxide reacts with carbon dioxide according to the unbalanced chemical equation :math>LiOH(s)+CO2(g)Li2CO3(s)+H2O(g) ppose a lithium hydroxide canister contains 155 g of LiOH(s). What mass of CO2(g)will the canister be able to absorb? If it is found that after 24 hours of use the canister has absorbed 102 g of carbon dioxide, what percentage of its capacity has been reached?
Small quantities of ammonia gas can be generated in the laboratory by heating an ammonium salt with a strong base. For example, ammonium chloride reacts with sodium hydroxide according to the following balanced equation: :math>NH4Cl(s)+NaOH(s)NH3(g)+NaCl(s)+N2O(g) at mass of ammonia gas is produced if 1.39 g of ammonium chloride reacts completely?
Calculate the amounts of reactants needed in a chemical reaction to produce a specified amount of product.
