Answer :
The mass of NH3 reaction yield, calculated as a percentage, is : 68.02 grams.
Given data :
mass of CaO = 112 g
mass of NH4Cl = 224 g
molar mass of CaO = 56.08 g/mol
molar mass of NH4Cl = 53.49 g/mol
molar mass of NH3 = 17.03 g/mol
1.
Balanced chemical reaction is given by :
CaO(s) + 2NH4Cl(s) = 2NH3(g) + H2O(g) + CaCl2(s)
2.
Calculation for moles of CaO :
moles = mass / molar mass
moles of Cao = 112g / 56.08g/mol
moles of CaO = 1.997moles
3.
Calculation for moles of NH4Cl :
moles = mass / molar mass
moles of NH4Cl = 224g / 53.49g/mol
moles of NH4Cl = 4.188 moles
4.
Identifying limiting reagent:
Reacting moles of Cao = 1.997 mol / 1 = 1.997 mol
Reacting moles of NH4Cl = 4.188 mol / 2 = 2.09 mol
So, moles of CaO are comparitively lesser than moles of NH4Cl.
Therefore, CaO is the limiting reagent.
5.
Calculation for the mass of NH3:
1 moles of Cao produces 2 moles of NH.3.
1.997 moles of CaO produces 3.994 moles of NH3.
mass = moles x molar mass
mass of NH3 = 3.997 mol * 17.03 g/mol
mass of NH3 = 68.02 g
= 68.0 g Approx.
