Which numbers are used? consider the balanced chemical equation that follows. you are asked to determine how many moles of water you can produce from 4.0 mol of hydrogen and excess oxygen. (excess oxygen means that so much oxygen is available it will not run out.) which of the numbers that appear in the balanced chemical equation below are used to perform this calculation?

Answer from: sheram2010

I am assuming that the balanced equation is
2H₂ + O₂ ⇒ 2H₂O
Since the hydrogen is the limiting reagent (meaning if the hydrogen runs out the reaction stops), we need to compare the mole ratio between hydrogen and water.

The mole ratio between H₂ and H₂O is 2:2, or 1:1 (as seen on the coefficients of the balanced equation)
And so for every mole of hydrogen, it will be equal to water. Since hydrogen is 4 moles, 4 moles of water would be created.

So we use the coefficients of H₂ and H₂O in order to answer this question.

Answer from: heavyhearttim

The number of moles of H2O is proportional to the number of moles of H2 as much as 4 moles

The calculation reference is the mole of the limiting reagent of the mole of H2O is based on the mol of H2

Stokiometry in Chemistry learns about chemical reactions mainly emphasizing quantitative, such as calculation of volume, mass, number, which is related to the number of ions, molecules, elements, etc.

In chemical calculations, the reaction can be determined, the number of substances that can be expressed in units of mass, volume, mole, or determine a chemical formula, for example, the substance level or molecular formula of the hydrate.

The reaction equation is the chemical formula of reagents and product substances A reaction coefficient is a number in the chemical formula of a substance involved in the reaction equation. The reaction coefficient is useful for equalizing reagents and products. In the reaction equation there are also manifestations of reagent substances namely gas (g), liquid (liquid / l), solid (solid / s) and solution (aqueous / aq).

Known variable

4.0 mol of hydrogen and excess oxygen

Asked

the balanced chemical equation

Answer

Reactions that occur:

2H₂ + O₂ ⇒ 2H₂O

The reaction coefficient shows the mole ratio of reactants and reaction products

In determining the mole of the reaction, the calculation reference is the mole of the limiting reagent or the reagent that runs out. Because here it is stated that oxygen (O₂) is reacted under excess conditions, the hydrogen ratio becomes the limiting reagent. So the determination of the mole of H₂O is based on the mol of H₂

In the equivalent equation, the mole of H₂ and H₂O is 2: 2 or can be simplified to 1: 1, so the number of moles of H₂O is proportional to the number of moles of H₂ as much as 4 moles
