Explanation:
Step 1: Define
[RxN - Balanced] Na₂CO₃ (aq) + CaCl₂ (aq) → CaCO₃ (s) + 2NaCl (aq)
[Given] 0.5 g Na₂CO₃ reacted with excess CaCl₂
Step 2: Identify Conversions
[RxN] Na₂CO₃ → 2NaCl
Molar Mass of Na - 22.99 g/mol
Molar Mass of C - 12.01 g/mol
Molar Mass of O - 16.00 g/mol
Molar Mass of Cl - 35.45 g/mol
Molar Mass of Na₂CO₃ - 2(22.99) + 12.01 + 3(16.00) = 105.99 g/mol
Molar Mass of NaCl - 22.99 + 35.45 = 58.44 g/mol
Step 3: Stoichiometry
- Set up: [tex]\displaystyle 0.5 \ g \ Na_2CO_3(\frac{1 \ mol \ Na_2CO_3}{105.99 \ g \ Na_2CO_3})(\frac{2 \ mol \ NaCl}{1 \ mol \ Na_2CO_3})(\frac{58.44 \ g \ NaCl}{1 \ mol \ NaCl})[/tex]
- Multiply/Divide: [tex]\displaystyle 0.551373 \ g \ NaCl[/tex]
Step 4: Check
Follow sig fig rules and round. We are given 1 sig fig.
0.551373 g NaCl ≈ 0.6 g NaCl
