D) How many ethanol (in grams) is left over in the reaction of part b. assuming no other side products formed during the reaction?
Answer – We are given,
Mass of Ethanol, C2H5OH = 2.21 g
Mass of Oxygen, O2 = 3.55 g
Actual yield of CO2 = 0.951 g
The combustion reaction of ethanol is,
C2H5OH +3 O2 -----> 2 CO2 + 3 H2O
a) The limiting reactant
To determine the limiting reactant we need to first calculate moles of each reactant and then moles of any one product from both reactant.
We know the formula for moles from mass,
By plugging the values,
The moles of CO2 from ethanol –
From the balanced reaction –
1 mole of C2H5OH = 2 moles of CO2
So, 0.0480 moles of C2H5OH =? moles of
CO2
The moles of CO2 from Oxygen –
From the balanced reaction –
From the balanced reaction –
3 moles of O2 = 2 moles of CO2
So, 0.111 moles of O2 =? moles of
CO2
Thus, the moles of CO2 are lowest from the reactant oxygen (O2), hence the reactant oxygen is limiting reactant. The moles of CO2 are 0.0739 moles.
b) The Theoretical Yield of CO2
We know the formula for calculating the mass from the mole,
We calculated the moles of CO2 and it is 0.0739 moles. By plugging the values,
Thus, the theoretical yield of CO2 is 3.25 g.
c) The Percent Yield of CO2 –
We know the formula,
Thus, the percent yield of CO2 is 29.2
%.
d) The Mass of Excess Reactant –
The excess reactant is ethanol. The mass of ethanol left over is the difference between the mass of ethanol initially given and after it is used in the reaction.
The mass of ethanol used in a reaction –
From the balanced reaction –
1 mole of O2 = 3 moles of C2H5OH
So, 0.111 moles of O2 =? Moles of
C2H5OH
The moles of ethanol used in the reaction are 0.0369 moles.
The moles o ethanol remaining after the reaction = 0.0480 – 0.0369 = 0.0110 moles
The mass of ethanol –
Thus, 0.506 gram of ethanol is left over in the reaction.
