Balancing Equations and Stoichiometry

This document provides a worksheet on balancing chemical equations and solving stoichiometry problems. It includes examples of balancing 5 chemical equations and using the balanced equation from problem 2 to answer 4 stoichiometry questions, determining grams of carbon dioxide formed from given reactants, identifying the limiting reagent, calculating excess reactant left over, and percent yield. The answers are provided on a second sheet to check work without looking at answers first.

Balancing Equations and Stoichiometry

Answers are provided on the second sheet. Please try to do the worksheet
without referring to them, because you’ll be expected to know this stuff on the
test!

Balance the following equations:

1) ___ N2 + ___ F2  ___ NF3

2) ___ C6H10 + ___ O2  ___ CO2 + ___ H2O

3) ___ HBr + ___ KHCO3  ___ H2O + ___ KBr + ___ CO2

4) ___ GaBr3 + ___ Na2SO3  ___ Ga2(SO3)3 + ___ NaBr

5) ___ SnO + ___ NF3  ___ SnF2 + ___ N2O3

Using the equation from problem 2 above, answer the following questions:

6) If I do this reaction with 35.0 grams of C6H10 and 45.0 grams of oxygen,
how many grams of carbon dioxide will be formed?

7) What is the limiting reagent for problem 6? ___________

8) How much of the excess reagent is left over after the reaction from
problem 6 is finished?

9) If 35 grams of carbon dioxide are actually formed from the reaction in


problem 6, what is the percent yield of this reaction?
Balancing Equations and Stoichiometry
Answers are provided on the second sheet. Please try to do the worksheet
without referring to them, because you’ll be expected to know this stuff the first
day of school!

Balance the following equations:

1) 1 N2 + 3 F2  2 NF3

2) 2 C6H10 + 17 O2  12 CO2 + 10 H2O

3) 1 HBr + 1 KHCO3  1 H2O + 1 KBr + 1 CO2

4) 2 GaBr3 + 3 Na2SO3  1 Ga2(SO3)3 + 6 NaBr

5) 3 SnO + 2 NF3  3 SnF2 + 1 N2O3

Using the equation from problem 2 above, answer the following questions:

6) If I do this reaction with 35.0 grams of C6H10 and 45.0 grams of oxygen,
how many grams of carbon dioxide will be formed?

35.0 g C6H10 1 mol C6H10 12 mol CO2 44.00 g CO2

82.00 g C6H10 2 mol C6H10 1 mol CO2

= 133 g CO2

45.0 g O2 1 mol O2 12 mol CO2 44.00 g CO2

32.00 g O2 17 mol O2 1 mol CO2

= 43.7 g CO2

When you do this calculation for 35 grams of C6H10, you find that 113
grams of CO2 will be formed. When you do the calculation for 45
grams of oxygen, you find that 43.7 grams of CO2 will be formed.
Because 43.7 grams is the smaller number, oxygen is the limiting
reagent, forming 43.7 grams of product.
7) What is the limiting reagent for problem 6? oxygen

8) How much of the excess reagent is left over after the reaction from
problem 6 is finished?

21.4 grams of C6H10 will be left over.

9) If 35 grams of carbon dioxide are actually formed from the reaction in


problem 6, what is the percent yield of this reaction?

80.1%
