According to the following reaction, what amount of Al2S3 remains when 20.00 g of Al2S3 and 2.00 g of H2O are reacted? A few of the molar masses are as follows: Al2S3 = 150.17 g/mol, H2O = 18.02 g/mol.

Respuesta :

Answer:

Mass of Al2S3 remaining is 17.212 g

Explanation:

Equation of the reaction is given below:

Al2S3 + 6H2O -----> 2Al(OH)3 + 3H2S

From the balanced equation above

6 mole of H20 reacts with 1 mole of Al2S3

i.e. 6 * 18.02 g of H2O reacts with 1 * 150.71 g of Al2S3

= 108.12 g of H2O reacts with 150.71 g of Al2S3

Therefore 2.0 g of water will react with 2.0 * (150.71/108.12) g of Al2S3

= 2.788 g of Al2S3

Mass of Al2S3 remaining = 20.0 g - 2.788 g = 17.212 g

According to the properly balanced chemical equation, the amount (mass) of [tex]AL_2S_3[/tex] that remains after the chemical reaction is 17.22 grams.

Given the following data:

  • Mass of [tex]AL_2S_3[/tex] = 20.00 grams
  • Mass of [tex]H_2O[/tex] = 2.00 grams
  • Molar mass of [tex]AL_2S_3[/tex] = 150.17 g/mol
  • Molar mass of [tex]H_2O[/tex] = 18.02 g/mol.

To calculate the amount (mass) of [tex]AL_2S_3[/tex] that remains after the chemical reaction:

First of all, we would write a properly balanced chemical equation for this chemical reaction.

                        [tex]Al_2S_3 + 6H_2O ---> 2Al(OH)_3 + 3H_2S[/tex]

By stoichiometry:

1 mole of [tex]AL_2S_3[/tex] reacts with 6 moles of [tex]H_2O[/tex]

Next, we would calculate the mass of each compound.

For [tex]AL_2S_3[/tex]:

[tex]Mass = Number\;of\;moles \times molar\;mass\\\\Mass = 1 \times 150.17[/tex]

Mass = 150.17 grams

For [tex]H_2O[/tex]:

[tex]Mass = Number\;of\;moles \times molar\;mass\\\\Mass = 6 \times 18.02[/tex]

Mass = 108.12 grams

108.12 grams of [tex]H_2O[/tex] = 150.17 grams of [tex]AL_2S_3[/tex]

2.00 grams of [tex]H_2O[/tex] = X grams of [tex]AL_2S_3[/tex]

Cross-multiplying, we have:

[tex]108.12 \times X = 150.17 \times 2\\\\108.12X = 300.34\\\\X = \frac{300.34}{108.12}[/tex]

X = 2.78 grams of [tex]AL_2S_3[/tex]

Remaining mass = [tex]20.00 - 2.78[/tex]

Remaining mass = 17.22 grams of [tex]AL_2S_3[/tex]
