Answer:
0.252 mol
Explanation:
Given the following reaction:
Cu + 2 AgNO₃ → 2 Ag + Cu(NO₃)₂
How many moles of Ag will be produced from 16.0 g Cu, assuming AgNO3 is available in excess.
First, we write the balanced equation.
Cu + 2 AgNO₃ → 2 Ag + Cu(NO₃)₂
We can establish the following relations.
- The molar mass of Cu is 63.55 g/mol.
- The molar ratio of Cu to Ag is 1:1.
The moles of Ag produced from 16.0 g of Cu are:
[tex]16.0gCu.\frac{1molCu}{63.55gCu} .\frac{1molAg}{1molCu} =0.252 molAg[/tex]
Answer:
[tex]n_{Ag} =0.504molAg[/tex]
Explanation:
Hello,
In this case, the undergoing chemical reaction is:
[tex]Cu+2AgNO_3-->Cu(NO_3)_2+2Ag[/tex]
As the silver nitrate is in excess, the yielded moles of silver are computed from the 16g of copper as shown below, including the corresponding stoichiometric 1 to 2 relationship between copper and silver respectively:
[tex]n_{Ag} =16.0gCu*\frac{1molCu}{63.5gCu}*\frac{2molAg}{1molCu}\\n_{Ag} =0.504molAg[/tex]
Best regards.
