Gas Stoichiometry Problems

1. How much copper(II) oxide (in grams) could be converted to copper by 15.0 L of hydrogen gas at 300.00C and
362 kPa?

CuO(s) + H2(g) → Cu(s) + H2O(l)


2. Consider the following equation:
2 NO2(g) → N2O4(g)

If 25.0 mL of NO2(g) is completely converted to N2O4 (g) under the same conditions of temperature
and pressure, what volume of N2O4 (g) will be obtained?

3. Quicklime, CaO, is produced by heating CaCO3(s). Calculate the volume of CO2 (g) produced at STP from the
decomposition of 152 g CaCO3 (s) according to the following equation:

CaCO3 (s) → CaO(s) + CO2 (g)

4. Find the volume of O2 (g) produced at 250C and 84.0 kPa when 50.0 g of KClO3 is heated according to the
following equation:
2 KClO3 (s) → 2 KCl(s) + 3O2 (g)
5. Trichloroethylene, formerly used for coffee decaffeination, in high doses causes liver cancer. It has a mass of
2.75 g in a volume of 1.80 L at 38.8 kPa and at 1270C. Find its molar mass.

6. Peroxyacetyl nitrate (PAN) produced in photo-chemical smog has a density of 1.85 g/L at 50.66 kPa and
1250C. Find its molar mass.

7. The alkali metals react with the halogens to form ionic metal halides. What mass of potassium chloride
forms when 5.25 L of chlorine gas at 96.0 kPa and 293 K reacts with 17.0 g of potassium? ***find the
limiting reagent***

8. A 5.371 g sample of X2CO3 reacts with HCl(aq) according to the following equation:

X2CO3(s) + 2 HCl(aq) → 2 XCl(aq) + H2O(l) + CO2 (g)


The CO2 (g) is collected at 27.000C and occupies 955.6 mL at 101.3 kPa. Calculate the molar mass of X.

Solutions:
