1. Answer the following questions based on the balanced equation

Al4C3 (s) + 12 H2O (l) → 4 Al(OH)3 (aq) + 3 CH4 (g)

a. How many moles of water are necessary to react completely with 6.42 moles of Al4C3 ?

6.42 mol ×12=77.04 mol H2O

b. How many moles of Al(OH)3 will result from the complete reaction of 265 grams of water
with excess aluminum carbide, Al4C3 ?

265 g 4
× =4.9 mol Al(OH)3
18.016 12

c. How many grams of H2O are required to prepare 128 grams of CH4 using the above reaction?

128 g 12
d. × ×18.016=575 g H2O
16.032 3

2. Crude titanium metal is prepared commercially according to the balanced equation

TiCl4 + 2 Mg → 2 MgCl2 + Ti

If 40.0 kg of magnesium is reacted with 85.2 kg of titanium chloride

a. What is the limiting reagent?

40000 g
 1645.41mol
24.31 Mg
85200 g
 449.18mol
189.68 TiCl4
2  1645.41  3290.82mol TiCl4 is needed in the reaction.

The limiting reagent is TiCl4.

The limiting reagent is TiCl4

b. How many grams of titanium metal will be formed?

449.18 mol × 1× 47.87=21502.25 g Ti

c. If the actual yield of titanium metal in the experiment was 10.4 kg, what was the percent yield
for this reaction?

10400 g
Percent yield ¿ ×100=48.3 % is the percent yield for this reaction
21532.4 g
d. How much of the excess reactant will remain after the reaction?

85200 g
×2 ×24.31=21839 g
189.68

40000 g−21839 g=18161 g Mg left
