Question

What mass, in grams, of sodium carbonate is required for complete reaction with 8.35g of nitric acid to produce sodium nitrate, carbon dioxide, and water? [Show work]
2HNO3 + Na2CO3 ==> CO2 + H2O + 2NaNO3
mols HNO3 = grams/molar mass = ?
Use the coefficients in the balanced equation to convert mols HNO3 to mols Na2CO3.

Then convert mols Na2CO3 to grams. g = mols x molar mass = ?
