A 500-g sample of Al2(SO4)3 is reacted with 450 g of Ca(OH)2. A total of 596 g of CaSO4 is produced. What is the limiting reagent in this reaction, and how many moles of excess reagent are unreacted?

k

give me a min

Al2(SO4)(aq) + 3Ca(OH)2(aq)---> 2Al(OH)3(s) + 3CaSO(s).

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Al2(SO4)3 + 3Ca(OH)2 → 3CaSO4 + 2Al(OH)3 Al2(SO4)3 = 342.15g/mol 500g = 500/342.15 = 1.461 mol Al2(SO4)3 3*1.461 = 4.383 mol Ca(OH)2 Ca(OH)2 = 74.09 g/mol

OpenStudy (danjs):

It says AL2(SO4)3 AL - +3 SO4 - -2

You want to see how much product each of the reactants will produce using the mole ratio from the balanced equation ..so....

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yes
