When ammonia gas, oxygen gas and methane gas(CH4) are combined, the products are hydrogen cyanide gas and water.

a) balance equation

b) calculate mass of each product produced when 225 g of O2 is reacted with an excess of the other two reactants.

c) if the actual yeild of the experiment in b) is 105 g of HCN, calculate the percent yeild

please explain/show work

  1. 2NH3 + 2CH4 + 3O2 => 2HCN + 6H2O

    ======================================

    ratios:

    O2 = 3 moles @ 32.0 g/mol = 96.0 grams

    HCN = 2 moles @ 27.03 g/mol = 54.06 g/mol

    H2O = 6 moles @ 18.015 g/mol = 108.09 grams

    ========================

    b) calculate mass of each product produced when 225 g of O2 is reacted with an excess of the other two reactants.

    225 g O2 @ 54.06 g HCN / 96.0 g O2 = 126.7 grams of HCN

    your answer (3 sigfigs) : 127 g HCN

    225 g O2 @ 108.09 g H2O / 96.0 g O2 = 253.3 grams H2O

    Your answer is (3 sigfigs): 253 g H2O

    -----------------------------------

    c) if the actual yeild of the experiment in b) is 105 g of HCN, calculate the percent yeild

    105 g yield/ 127 g expected (100) = 82.68 % yield

    Your answer(3sigfigs) : 82.7% yield
