a) 3.6 x 10^2 g CH3OH = ?? moles.
3.5 x 10^2/molar mass CH3OH = moles.
You will need that many moles CO and twice that for moles H2.
b) To produce 4.00 mole CH3OH, you will need 4 moles CO and 8 moles H2. Convert those moles to grams. g = moles x molar mass.
c) Use the coefficients in the balanced equation to convert 2.85 mol CO to moles H2, then convert moles H2 to grams.
Methanol (CH3OH) is used in the production of many chemicals. methanol is made by reacting carbon monoxide and hydrogen at high temperature and pressure.
CO(g) + 2H2(g) ==> CH3OH(g)
a) How many moles of each reactant are needed to produce 3.60 x 10^2 g CH3OH?
b)Calculate the number of grams of each reactant needed to produce 4.00 mol CH3OH.
c)How many grams of hydrogen are necessary to react with 2.85 mol CO?
