Kinetics and Molarity
« on: August 04, 2008, 08:18:24 PM »
Iron(II) Chloride reacted with 148 grams of silver nitrate. Calculate the amount of grams for the products at 57 degrees Celsisus and 740 mmHg.

^ I don't quite understand how to approach this problem other than the fact that Fe(NO3)2 results in 63 grams and AgNO3 results in 29 grams when temperature and pressure are excluded.

Start with the reaction equation.

The balanced equation:

FeCl2(aq) +2 AgNO3---->Fe(NO3)2(aq)+2AgCl2

The amount of moles:

44.4 g FeCl2(1 mol FeCl2/126.8 FeCl2) =.3502 mol FeCl2

148 g AgNO3(1 mol/ 169.9 g)= .871 mol AgNO3

The amount of moles needed to use up all of the .3502 mols of FeCl2

.3502 mol FeCl2 (2 mols AgNO3/1 mol FeCl2)

The rest is very obvious however the extra conditions with temp and pressure confused me..

AgCl not AgCl2, but I suppose it is just a typo.

Otherwise I have no idea what you are doing - where is 44.4 g FeCl2 from, it wasn't listed in the original question.

Extra conditions don't matter, they are here just to confuse you.
