Simple Stoic question
« on: January 27, 2009, 10:46:39 PM »
I haven't done stoic since last term, and this question really threw me off, especially since I don't have molar mass to use.

3A + 2B -> 4C
--If 2.02 moles of A were combined with 1.83moles of B, what is the theoretical yield of C? How much excess reagent would be left after the reaction?

Do I do a mole ratio with either of the reactants with C to get the theoretical yield of C? Or no, that would just be moles. I honestly don't remember how to do excess reagents either.

Thanks, sorry for such a simple question, just need better explanation.

You can compare the amount of 2 reagents to find out which is excessive after reactions. Thanks to this, you can calculate the amount of 1 of 2 reagent left after reaction.
About the theoretical yield, I suppose 100%

Dear vort3x;

You can do it according the following recipe, because you have already line B.) and C2.) and you will get the answers again on the line C2.) in moles when you finish the recipe:    "Stoichiometry Problem"

I hope to have been of help to you.
Good Luck!
