Limiting Reactant & Excess WS

1) 0.30 mol of Zn reacts with 0.52 mol of HCl. This will produce 0.30 mol of H2 gas. 2) 92.7 g of N2 and 265.8 g of H2 react to produce NH3. H2 is the limiting reactant and 2.65 mol of NH3 can be produced. 3) If 6.3 mol of HCl and 2.8 mol of Ca(OH)2 react, 112 grams of water will be produced and there will be an excess.

Limiting Reactant Worksheet

1. If 0.30 mol of Zinc metal reacts with 0.52 mol of HCl, how many moles of hydrogen gas
will be produced? Zn + 2 HCl → ZnCl2 + H2

2. If 92.7 g of N2 are combined with 265.8 g of H2 to produce ammonia (NH3), which is the
limiting reactant in the synthesis reaction? How many moles of NH3 are produced?
N2 + 3 H2 → 2 NH3

3. Calcium hydroxide, used to neutralize acid spills, reacts with hydrochloric acid according
to the following equation: Ca(OH)2 + HCl → CaCl2 +H2O *Unbalanced
If you have spilled 6.3 mol of HCl and put 2.8 mol of Ca(OH)2 on it, how many grams of
water is produced? Calculate the excess that is produced.

4. Aluminum oxidizes according to the following equation: Al + O2 → Al2O3 *Unbalanced


Powdered Al (0.048 mol) is placed into a container containing 0.030 mol O2. How many
grams of aluminum oxide can be produced? Calculate the excess that is produced.

5. Heating zinc sulfide in the presence of oxygen yields the following:


2 ZnS + 3 O2 → 2 ZnO + 2 SO2
If 1.72 mol of ZnS is heated in the presence of 3.04 mol of O2, how many moles of zinc (II)
oxide can be produced?

6. Chlorine can replace bromine in bromide compounds forming a chloride compound and
elemental bromine. The following equation is an example of the reaction:
KBr(aq) + Cl2(aq) →KCl(aq) + Br2(l) *Unbalanced
When 0.855 g of Cl2 and 3.205 g of KBr are mixed in solution, how many grams of
potassium chloride can be produced? Calculate the excess that is produced.

7. A process by which zirconium metal can be produced from the mineral zirconium (IV)
orthosilicate, ZrSiO4, starts by reacting it with chlorine gas to form zirconium (IV) chloride.
ZrSiO4 + 2 Cl2 → ZrCl4 +SiO2 + O2
What mass of ZrCl4 can be produced if 862 g of ZrSiO4 and 951 g of Cl2 are available?

8. In the reaction BaCO3 + 2HNO3 → Ba(NO3)2 + CO2 + H2O, what mass of Ba(NO3)2 can be
formed by combining 55 g BaCO3 and 26 g HNO3? What is the excess amount?

9. Aspirin, C9H8O4, is synthesized by the reaction of salicylic acid, C7H6O3, with acetic
anhydride, C4H6O3. 2 C7H6O3 + C4H6O3 → 2 C9H8O4 + H2O
When 20.0 g of C7H6O3and 20.0g of C4H6O3 react, which is the limiting reagent? What
mass in grams of aspirin are formed? What is the excess amount?
