STOICHIOMETRY:
1. How many moles of Carbon dioxide are in 200 grams ? (C=12amu , O=16amu) ( 3 points)
=moles=gram/molar mass
= moles= 200g/molar mass molar mass= C=12.01 O=16.00 = 12.01+16.00= 44.01g/mol
= moles=200g/44.01g/mol
=cancel the gram
=moles= 4.545 mol

2. How many particles of Na are in 50 grams of Na? ((Na=23 amu) ((3 points)
=w/m x na na= 6.022x10^23
=50g/23 g/mol x 6.022 x 10^23
=1.30x10^23

3. What is the formula weight of Potassium tartrate? ( K= 39 amu, C=12 amu, H= 1 amu and O=16 amu). Please
specify the unit of your answer. ((3 points)
C=12.01 x 4=48.02
K=39.09 x 2=78.18
H=1.007 x 4=4.028
O=15.99 x 6= 95.94
48.02+78.18+4.028+95.94=
Formula weight= 224.27

4. What is the percentage of Ca in Calcium chloride ( Ca=40 amu and Cl=35.5 amu (( 3points)
Ca=40x1= 40
CL=35.5x2= 71
40+71=111
Ca= 40/111 x 100%=0.36%
Ca= 0.36%
5. What is the Molecular weight and empirical weight of butyric acid, C4H8O2 ( C=12 amu, O=16 and H=1 amu) ( 2
points each)
=molecular weight=c=12.01x4 h= 1.007 x 8 o= 15.99 x 2
=48.04+8.063+31.99
=88.105 or 88.11
=empirical weight
=C=27.29 mol
=H=11.19 mol
=O=72.71 mol
= 27.29 mol / 48.04 g/mol= 0.56
=11.19 mol/ 8.06 g/mol= 1.38
= 72.71 mol/31.99 g/mol= 2.27
=0.56/0.56=1
=1.38/0.56=2
=2.27/0.26=4
=C2H4O

6. A compound is found to contain 23.3% magnesium, 30.7% sulfur, and 46.0% oxygen. What is the empirical
formula of this compound?
=23.3 mol of magnesium
=30.7 mol of sulfur
=46.0mol of oxygen
=23,3 mol/24.31 g/mol(molar mass) =0.96g of Mg
=30.7 mol/32.06 g/mol=0.96g of S
=46 mol/16.00 g/mol= 2.88g of O2
=0.96/0.96=1
=0.96/0.96=1
=2.88/0.96= 3
=MgSO3
