Instructions: Show a neat and complete solution. Box your final answer.

1. Which of the following has more atoms: 1.10 g of hydrogen atoms or 14.7 g of chromium atoms?

2. Urea [(NH2)2CO] is used for fertilizer and many other things. Calculate the number of N, C, O, and
H atoms in 1.68 x 104 g of urea.

3. When baking soda (sodium bicarbonate or sodium hydrogen carbonate, NaHCO 3) is heated, it releases
carbon dioxide gas, which is responsible for the rising of cookies, donuts, and bread.
a)
Write a balanced equation for the decomposition of the compound (one of the products is Na2CO3).
b)
Calculate the mass of NaHCO3 required to produce 20.5 g of CO2.

4. Consider the reaction: MnO2 + 4HCl  MnCl2 + Cl2 + 2H2O


If 0.86 mole of MnO2 and 48.2 g of HCl react, which reagent will be used up first? How many grams of Cl 2
will be produced? Calculate the percent yield when 15 g of Cl2 is produced in production.
Process Question:

Why is the actual yield of a reaction almost always smaller than the theoretical yield?
