Combine 1.0 g of Citric Acid (H3C6H5O7) with 3.0 g of baking soda (NaHCO3) (in 10 mL of a 30% solution). Assume that all of the baking soda needed is present. How much sodium citrate (Na3C6H5O7) can be produced from the citric acid?
For this same reaction - 1.0 g of Citric Acid (H3C6H5O7) with 3.0 g of baking soda (NaHCO3) - assume that all of the citric acid that is needed is present. How much sodium citrate (Na3C6H5O7) can be produced from the baking soda?
Using your responses for the amount of Na3C6H5O7 that can be produced from each of the reactants (baking soda and citric acid), what is the limiting reactant of this reaction that you will perform in the lab?
