Discussion: For this experiment to occur‚ the limiting and the excess reagents needed to be determined. The limiting reagent was picked based upon the single displacement that was going to occur when the two substances‚ iron and copper(II)sulfate‚ were mixed together in water. Seeing that iron was going to displace copper and take its place‚ it was chosen to be the limiting reagent with the condition that if it was in excess then after the displacement was completed‚ there will be iron precipitate

Stoichiometry and Limiting Reagents Theodore A. Bieniosek I. Purpose and Theory The purpose of the experiment is to study and apply the processes of stoichiometric calculation on a controlled chemical reaction. We will be adding variable amounts of reactants in a chemical reaction in order to demonstrate the effect of limiting reagents. Based on the volumes of the reactants‚ and their respective molarities‚ we can calculate the theoretical yield of the reaction and compare it to the

Question 1 (Limiting Reagent) 15.00 g aluminum sulfide & 10.00 g water react until the limiting reagent is used up. [Atomic mass: H = 1.008‚ Al = 26.98‚ S = 32.07‚ O = 16.00] Here is the balanced equation for the reaction: Al2S3 + 6 H2O ( 2 Al (OH)3 + 3 H2S (i) Which of the two reactants is the limiting reagent? (ii) What is the maximum mass of H2S which can be formed from these reagents? (iii) How much excess reagent remains after the reaction is complete

dealing with such small quantities of reagents‚ any small inaccuracy in measurement creates a large difference in actual yield from theoretical yield. Through simple molar calculations‚ using the coefficients in the balanced chemical equation( CaCl2(aq) + 2NaOH(aq) Ca(OH)2 + CaCl2)‚ the limiting reagent could be determined from the volumes of reactants used. The number two to four tests turned out as expected‚ NaOH and CaCl2 respectively being the limiting reagents. In the second test‚ according to

Percent Composition Report Hypothesis : By using seperation techniques properly‚ the 3 substance such as; water‚ sand‚ and salt can be seperated and the percent composition of each substance. Which will then be calculated theoritically and after comparison with the actual result‚ the accuracy of the 2 result can be found. Aim : The aim of this experiment is to compare the gravimetric result of the original mixture and the separated substance. The other objective is to calculate each percent

In the data table above‚ the mass of penny‚ copper‚ and zinc was needed in order to determine the percent composition of copper and zinc. The mass of penny was taken on the scale in the beginning of the procedure before anything was done to the penny‚ and it was 2.51 grams. After the reaction with the hydrochloric acid and drying the copper‚ the mass is 0.35 grams. To get the mass of zinc‚ the mass of the penny was subtracted by the mass of copper. The mass of zinc is 2.16 grams. The penny is 14%

Objectives and background In an experiment‚ limiting reactant affect the “amount of the product.” In the other way‚ the product this reaction produce dependent on the limiting reactant. For example‚ 1000kg O2 and 1 gram H2 to form water. In this case‚ the 1 gram of H2 will be the limiting reactant. Same thing in displacement reactant. If one of the reactants is (Mole) less than the other one‚ then that reactants becomes the limiting reactants. Once the limiting reactants will completely be ran out of

Description Whenever we do experiments‚ the actual result is a little different from the result we predicted. In chemistry‚ this discrepancy is compared by calculating the percent yield. In this lesson‚ we will define percent yield‚ and go over a few examples. !!!What is Percent Yield? Sometimes you look at a recipe and it says how many servings it will make if you follow the amounts listed on there. There are times‚ however‚ that the number of servings after you have made the food is not the

Calcium nitrate and copper sulfate will be added to separate beakers with approximately half of the solutions from the Büchner funnel system of each trial to test for the formation of precipitates. The limiting reactant is the reactant that will run out first in the chemical reaction. It is important to recognize which chemical or compound is the limiting reactant because the reactant in
