If 6.51 g of copper is reacted with 28.4 g of silver nitrate, the products will be copper (ii) nitrate and silver metal. what is the theoretical mass of silver that will be produced?

Explanation:

Hello,

In this case, the undergoing chemical reaction is:

Now, since the theoretical yield of silver is required, we first must identify the limiting reactant by comparing the available moles of copper and the moles of copper that are consumed by the 28.4 g of silver nitrate as shown below:

Hence, since there are more available moles of copper than consumed, we understand copper as the excess reactant and silver nitrate as the limiting one, therefore, the theoretical yield of silver turns out:

Best regards.

the potential energy of the reactants is 200j.

from the energy diagram, the energy of the product formed is 350j; this means that, this reaction is an endothermic reaction, because it absorbs energy from its environment.

they are both synthetic elements
