I. IntroductionI. Introduction

• Global consumption of fossil fuels results in CO2 production.

• We can estimate how much CO2 is produced using balanced chemical equations.

• 2C8H18(l) + 25O2(g) 16CO2(g) + 18H2O(g)

II. Relating Parts to the WholeII. Relating Parts to the Whole

• In Chapter 6, we learned about part to whole relationships.

II. Relating IngredientsII. Relating Ingredients

• We can find the same kinds of relationships between ingredients of a recipe.

II. How Many Pancakes?II. How Many Pancakes?

• If we had a dozen eggs, and enough of the other ingredients, how many pancakes could we make?

II. How Much NHII. How Much NH33??

• Doing calculations with a recipe is analogous to doing calculations with a balanced chemical equation.

II. Calculations w/ EquationsII. Calculations w/ Equations

• A balanced equation allows calculations of amounts of reactants or products.

• If you know the # of moles of one substance in a balanced equation, you know the # of moles of any of the other substances.

• Numerical relationships between chemical amounts in a balanced chemical equation are called reaction stoichiometry.

II. Mole RatiosII. Mole Ratios

• Many stoichiometric relationships exist in any one balanced equation.

• e.g. C3H8(g) + 5O2(g) 3CO2(g) + 4H2O(l)

1 mole C3H8 reacts w/ 5 moles O2

1 mole C3H8 produces 3 moles CO2

5 moles O2 leads to 4 moles H2O

• These can be converted to mole ratios.1 mole C3H8

5 moles O2

1 mole C3H8

3 moles CO2

5 moles O2

4 moles H2O

II. Possible CalculationsII. Possible Calculations

• With a balanced chemical equation, there are two common calculations. Convert moles of one substance to moles

of another substance. Convert grams of one substance to grams

of another substance.

III. Not Enough IngredientsIII. Not Enough Ingredients

• 1 cup flour + 2 eggs + ½ tsp baking powder = 5 pancakes

III. Limiting ReactantsIII. Limiting Reactants• Consider the following reaction.

2CO(g) + O2(g) 2CO2(g)

• Submicroscopically, 2 molecules CO react with 1 molecule O2 to give 2 molecules CO2.

• How much CO2 forms if we have 2 molecules CO and 10 molecules of O2?

• We call CO the limiting reactant, the reactant that is completely used up.

• Limiting reactant problems are characterized by giving you information about more than one reactant!

• They are solved by running two calculations and circling the smallest answer.

IV. Real-life ReactionsIV. Real-life Reactions

• In reality, we cannot have complete conversion to products.

• Even if there was complete conversion, difficult to actually collect all of the product.

IV. Reaction YieldsIV. Reaction Yields

• Stoichiometry gives us theoretical yield.• What is recovered in the lab is the actual yield.• The efficiency of a reaction is commonly

expressed as percent yield.

• Determine the percent yield of a reaction in which 41.5 g of tungsten(VI) oxide reacts with excess molecular hydrogen to produce atomic tungsten and 9.50 g of water.

V. Heats of ReactionV. Heats of Reaction

• In Chapter 3, we learned about exothermic and endothermic reactions.

• The amount of thermal energy emitted or absorbed under constant pressure is known as the enthalpy.

• Specifically, we have the enthalpy of reaction (a.k.a. heat of reaction), ΔHrxn.

V. The Sign of V. The Sign of ΔΔHHrxnrxn

• The sign of the heat of reaction determines whether the reaction is exothermic or endothermic.

• For exothermic reactions, ΔHrxn is negative.

• For endothermic reactions, ΔHrxn is positive.
