ok and?

OpenStudy (abhisar):

The reaction is always driven according to the limmiting reactant. So despite the fact that 7.6 moles of H2O is present, only 7.5 moles of it will react with 7.5 moles of Na

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ok

OpenStudy (abhisar):

and this will produce 7.5 moles of NaOH and 3.25 moles of H2

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so NaOH is 7.5 moles?

OpenStudy (abhisar):

yes, now you need to calculate the mass of 7.5 moles of NaOH

OpenStudy (abhisar):

It will be 7.5 moles X molar mass of NaOH (which is 40)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ok

OpenStudy (abhisar):

NOw again find the mass of 3.25 moles of H2. And finally add both the masses to get the final mass of products.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

how about the 2 in NaOH?

OpenStudy (abhisar):

Have you read your chapter carefully ?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

do you have some websites of this.. ?

OpenStudy (abhisar):

This should help you

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i will add only the NaOH and H2?
