In the reaction CaCN₂ + 3 H₂O → CaCO₃ + 2 NH₃,how many kilograms of NH₃ will be produced when 25.0 kg of CaCN₂ react with excess water?

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The molar mass of CaCN₂ is 80.1 g/mol, and NH₃ is 17.03 g/mol. From the balanced equation, 1 mole of CaCN₂ produces 2 moles of NH₃. Therefore, 25,000 g of CaCN₂ produces (25,000 g / 80.1 g/mol) * 2 * 17.03 g/mol = 10,627 g or 10.6 kg of NH₃.
