Question

NaCl (aq) + NH3(aq) + H2O(l) + CO2(s) --> NH4Cl(aq) + NaHCO3(s)

because they are relatively cheap, sodium chloride and water are typically present in excess. what is the expected yield of NaHCO3 when one performs such a synthesis using 10.0 g of ammonia and 15.0 g of dry ice - CO2(s), with an excess of NaCl and water-H20?

Answer 1

Convert 10.0 g NH3 to moles. moles = grams/molar mass.
Convert 15.0 g CO2 to moles.

Now convert moles NH3 to moles product and convert moles CO2 to moles product. Determine the limiting reagent. Finally, convert moles of the product to grams product.
