Calculate the Masses of Products/Reactants for the following Reactions

 

1.  What mass of water is produced by burning 16g of hydrogen in an excess of oxygen

 

step 1     equation  2H2 + O2               2H2O

step 2 work out Mr  2(2x1) + (2x16)     2( (2x1) + 16)

step 3 check totals   4    +    32    =    36   

Step 4 apply ratio if 4g of H2 produces  36g of H2O

         then 1g of H2 produces 36/4 g of H2O

         then 16g of H2 produces 16x36/4 =144g of H2O

 

2.  What mass of oxygen must be reacted to produce 288g of water?

 

 

3.  How much aluminium oxide is needed to produce 2160 tonnes of aluminium

2Al2O3              4Al + 3O2

 

4.  What mass of iron sulphide is produced when 64g of sulphur reacts with iron?

 

 

 

How much iron needs to be reacted with sulphur to produce 352g of iron sulphide?
