What I Need to Know
This module was designed and written with you in mind. It is here to help you
master the concepts and ideas in Chemistry. The scope of this module permits it to
be used in many different learning situations. The language used recognizes the
diverse vocabulary level of students. The lessons are arranged to follow the standard
sequence of the course.
What I Know
Read each question carefully. Choose the letter of the best answer.

What’s In
In the previous module, you learned that the actual yield (product produced)
is not always equal to the theoretical yield of the given chemical equation because of
several factors. The maximum amount of yield can also be influence by the number
of reactants use in a chemical reaction. When this happens, the reactant can now
determine the amount of product that will be produced or when a chemical reaction
will stop.
What’s New
In the diagram shown above, we need 1 carbon atom and 2 oxygen atoms to
make 1 carbon dioxide molecule. However, there are not enough oxygen atoms to use
up all the carbon atoms. Since we do not have enough oxygen atoms, the production
of carbon dioxide stops. In this case, oxygen is the limiting reagent and carbon is the
excess reagent.
Example 1. The chemical equation of a fuel mixture of N2H4 and N2O4 is shown below.
How many grams of N2 gas was produced when 80 g of N2H4 and 180 g of N2O4 are
mixed? What is the limiting and excess reagents in this chemical reaction?
Since we are looking for the mass of N 2, let us find the number of moles of N 2
produced.
A. 80 g of N2H4
B. 180 g of N2O4
The resulting number of moles of limiting reactant N2H4 = 3.75 mol N2, is less than
that of limiting reactant N2O4 = 5.87 mol N2. Therefore, the limiting reagent is N 2H4
and the excess reagent is N2O4
Step 4. Find how many grams of N2 gas was produced. Use Mole – mass calculation.
Step 2. Use stochiometric calculations to find the limiting reactant and excess
reactant.
Step 4. Find how much excess remains after the chemical reaction stops.
a. Calculate how much of the excess reactant (NH 3) react with the limiting
reactant (O2)
b. Subtract the amount of NH3 reacted from the amount in the original
sample.
What’s More
Find the
remaining excess
reactant

question.
Suppose 8.5 kg CO is mixed with 5.60 kg H2. What will be the maximum yield
of this reaction in grams and in moles? Which of the reactants is the limiting

2. When ammonia reacts with oxygen gas it will produce nitric oxide and water.
In an experiment, a 4.25 g of NH3 was mixed with a 4.50 g of O2.
4NH3 + 5O2 → 4NO + 6H2O
