How many moles of CO2 are produced from 15.6 g of NaHCO3?
Calculation of the moles of CO2 produced from NaHCO3
When 15.6 g of NaHCO3 is reacted, the amount of CO2 produced can be calculated using stoichiometry.
The molar mass of NaHCO3 is approximately 84 g/mol.
First, we need to calculate the number of moles of NaHCO3 in 15.6 g:
Number of moles = Mass / Molar mass
Number of moles = 15.6 g / 84 g/mol = 0.185 moles
1 mole of bicarbonate (NaHCO3) produces 1 mole of CO2 according to the balanced chemical equation.
Therefore, 0.185 moles of NaHCO3 will produce 0.185 moles of CO2.
How many moles of CO2 are produced from 30 g of NaHCO3?Answer:
0.357 moles
Explanation:
Using the same calculation as before, by dividing the mass by the molar mass of NaHCO3 (84 g/mol), we get 0.357 moles of CO2 produced.
