Exam Review #20



20) Use stoichiometry to solve the following complex problems:


A.   If a sample of K2S is known to contain 8.418x1024 atoms of K, what mass of potassium sulfide is present?



8.418x1024 atoms K x          1 mol K           x  1 mol K2S x 110 mol K2S =  769 mol K2S
                                    6.022x1023 atoms K     2 mol K       1 mole K2S

B. How many chloride atoms can be found in 38.0L of CCl4 gas at STP?

38.0 L CCl4 x 1 mol CCL4 x   4 mol Cl x 6.022x1023 atoms Cl = 4.10 atoms CL
                       22.4 L CCl4   1 mol CCL4  1 mol Cl


C. If a sample of carbon monoxide gas has a volume of 20.8L at STP, how many grams of oxygen are present?

20.8L CO x 1 mol CO x 1 mol O  x 16.0g O = 14.9g O
                     22.4L CO    1 mol C     1 mol O
