How many mole of NH3 is required? (see details)

Question

Question:

How many moles of NH3 is required to produce 2.5 mol of

Cu(NH3)SO4 according to the equation:

CuSO4 4NH3 ----> Cu(NH3)SO4

thanks.. ^_^ please show your solution and a brief explanation...

Answer 1

hey ur eqn isnt clear.

issit CuSO4 + 4 NH3?

Answer 2

actually the product formed is [Cu(NH3)4]SO4.

4moles of NH3 r required to produce 1mole product.for 2.5 moles it will b 2.5(4)=10moles

Answer 3

Solution:

moles of NH3 = 2.5 mol Cu(NH3)SO4 x 4NH3 / 1CU(NH3)SO4

Answer: 10.0 mol of NH3

*Cu(NH3)SO4 would cancel out.
