How many grams of sodium sulfide are formed if 1.50 g of hydrogen sulfide is bubbled into a solution containing 2.00 g of sodium hydroxide, assuming that the sodium sulfide is made in 94.0 % yield?

The first step for any chemical reaction is to write out the chemical equation to determine the molar ratios of the reactants and products. Then we will use the molecular formulas and weights to calculate the desired answer.

$2NaOH + H_2S → Na_2S + 2H_2O$
So, it takes two moles of sodium hydroxide to react with one mole of hydrogen sulfide to produce one mole of sodium sulfide and two moles of water.

The actual amounts that we have are 1.5/34 = 0.044 moles of $H_2S$ and 2.0/40 = 0.05 moles of NaOH.

That means that NaOH is the “” - no more than 0.05/2 = 0.025 moles of $H_2S$ would be able to react theoretically.

Given the state 94% yield, this means that only 0.94 * 0.025 = 0.0235 moles of $H_2S$ will react to form $Na_2S$.

This will produce 0.0235 moles of $Na_2S$.
The mass is found from the molecular weight again:
0.0235 * 78 = 1.83g $Na_2S$.

In the reaction $2NaOH+H_2SO_4 -> 2H_2O+Na_2SO_4$, how many grams of sodium sulfate will be formed if you start with 200.0 grams of sodium hydroxide and you have an excess of sulfuric acid?

Given the molecular weights: $Mr_(NaOH)=40 g/(mol)$ $Mr_(Na_2SO_4)=142 g/(mol)$ The analogy of the moles will be held constant: $n_(NaOH)/n_(Na_2SO_4)=2/1$ $n_(NaOH)/n_(Na_2SO_4)=2$ For each one, substitute: $n=m/(Mr)$ Therefore: $n_(NaOH)/n_(Na_2SO_4)=2$ $(m_(NaOH)/(Mr_(NaOH)))/(m_(Na_2SO_4)/(Mr_(Na_2SO_4)))=2$ $(200/40)/(x/142)=2$ $(200*142)/(40x)=2$ $200*142=2*40x$...

35.0 grams of thionyl chloride is placed in a glass containing 500.0 grams of water. After the reaction is complete how many grams of water will remain unreacted? How many grams of the thionyl chloride will remain unreacted?

Thionyl chloride reacts quantitatively (and violently) with water as represented by the following reaction: $SOCl_2(l) + 2H_2O(l) rarr SO_2(g)uarr + 2HCl(aq)+Delta$ $"Moles of thionyl chloride"=(35.0*g)/(118.97*g*mol^-1)=0.294*mol.$ And CLEARLY, thionyl chloride is...

Stoichiometry predicts that the yield of beryllium chloride is 10.7 grams. If my actual yield was 7.6 grams, what was my percent yield?

Of course you need a stoichiometric equation to represent the $BeCl_2$ synthesis.

In the neutralization of sulfuric acid with sodium hydroxide, the theoretical yield from 6.9g of sulfuric acid is 10g. In a synthesis, the actual yield is 7.2g. What is the percentage yield for this synthesis?

And thus for this example $%"Yield"$ $=$ $(7.2*g)/(10*g)xx100%$ And we don't even need a calculator......... Most of the time, we write a stoichiometric equation, that shows the molar equivalence between...

Define the terms theoretical yield, actual yield, and percent yield. Why is the actual yield in a reaction almost always less than the theoretical yield? Can a reaction ever have 110% actual yield?

Actual yield in a reaction is almost always less than the theoretical yield, primarily because losses of the substances involved may occur anywhere in an experiment. Otherwise, there can be...
