Answer:
630.95 grams of Na₂CO₃ would be needed to produce 1000g of NaHCO₃
Explanation:
The balanced reaction is:
Na₂CO₃ + CO₂+ H₂O → 2 NaHCO₃
By stoichiometry of the reaction (that is, the relationship between the amount of reagents and products in a chemical reaction), the following amounts of each compound participate in the reaction:
Being the molar mass:
Then by stoichiometry the following quantities of mass participate in the reaction:
You can apply the following rule of three: if 106 grams of Na₂CO₃ are needed to produce 168 grams of NaHCO₃, how much mass of Na₂CO₃ is necessary to produce 1000 grams of NaHCO₃?
[tex]mass of Na_{2} CO_{3}=\frac{1000grams ofNaHCO_{3} *106gramsofNa_{2} CO_{3} }{168grams ofNaHCO_{3}}[/tex]
mass of Na₂CO₃= 630.95 grams
630.95 grams of Na₂CO₃ would be needed to produce 1000g of NaHCO₃
