General Approach For Problem Solving

1. Clearly identify the Goal or Goals and the UNITS involved. (starting and ending unit)

2. Determine what is given and the UNITS.

3. Use conversion factors (which are really ratios) and their UNITS to CONVERT what is given into what is desired.

Information given by chemical Information given by chemical equationsequations

2 C6H6 (l) + 15 O2 (g) 12 CO2 (g) + 6 H2O (g)

In this equation there are In this equation there are 22 molecules of benzene reacting with molecules of benzene reacting with 1515 molecules of oxygen to produce molecules of oxygen to produce 1212 molecules of carbon dioxide and molecules of carbon dioxide and 66

molecules of watermolecules of water.

This equation could also be read as This equation could also be read as 22 moles of benzene reacts with moles of benzene reacts with 1515 moles of moles of oxygen to produce oxygen to produce 1212 moles of carbon dioxide and moles of carbon dioxide and 66 moles of water. moles of water.

Since the relationship between the actual number of molecules and the number of moles present is 6.02 x 1023, a common factor between all species

involved in the equation, a MOLE RATIOMOLE RATIO relationship can be discussed.

Information given by chemical Information given by chemical equationsequations

2 C6H6 (l) + 15 O2 (g) 12 CO2 (g) + 6 H2O (g)

The The MOLE RATIOMOLE RATIO for benzene and oxygen is 2 : 15. It can be written as: for benzene and oxygen is 2 : 15. It can be written as: 2 moles C6H6 or as 15 moles of O2

15 moles O2 2 moles of C6H6

The The MOLE RATIOMOLE RATIO for oxygen and carbon dioxide is 15 : 12. for oxygen and carbon dioxide is 15 : 12. It can be written as:It can be written as:

12 moles CO2 or as 15 moles of O2

15 moles O2 12 moles of CO2

NOTE: The MOLE RATIO is used for converting moles of one substance into moles of another substance. Without the balanced equation there is no

other relationship between two different compounds.

What is the theoretical yield? Hint: Which is the smallest

amount? The is based upon the limiting reactant?

It was limited by theamount of KO2.

H2O = excess (XS) reactant!

Theoretical yield vs. Actual yield

Suppose the theoretical yield for an experiment was calculated to be 19.5 grams, and the experiment was performed, but only 12.3 grams of product were recovered. Determine the % yield.

Theoretical yield = 19.5 g based on limiting reactant

Actual yield = 12.3 g experimentally recovered
