Solution
1
Identify the reaction: The reaction between sodium carbonate (Na2CO3\mathrm{Na}_{2} \mathrm{CO}_{3}) and hydrochloric acid (HCl\mathrm{HCl}) can be represented by the balanced chemical equation: Na2CO3+2HCl2NaCl+H2O+CO2\mathrm{Na}_{2} \mathrm{CO}_{3} + 2 \mathrm{HCl} \rightarrow 2 \mathrm{NaCl} + \mathrm{H}_{2} \mathrm{O} + \mathrm{CO}_{2}
2
Calculate moles of $\mathrm{Na}_{2} \mathrm{CO}_{3}$: Using the given mass of Na2CO3\mathrm{Na}_{2} \mathrm{CO}_{3} and its molar mass: Mass of Na2CO3=1.936g\text{Mass of } \mathrm{Na}_{2} \mathrm{CO}_{3} = 1.936 \, \mathrm{g} Molar mass of Na2CO3=105.99g/mol\text{Molar mass of } \mathrm{Na}_{2} \mathrm{CO}_{3} = 105.99 \, \mathrm{g/mol} Moles of Na2CO3=1.936g105.99g/mol=0.01826mol\text{Moles of } \mathrm{Na}_{2} \mathrm{CO}_{3} = \frac{1.936 \, \mathrm{g}}{105.99 \, \mathrm{g/mol}} = 0.01826 \, \mathrm{mol}
3
Determine moles of $\mathrm{NaCl}$ produced: According to the balanced equation, 1 mole of Na2CO3\mathrm{Na}_{2} \mathrm{CO}_{3} produces 2 moles of NaCl\mathrm{NaCl}: Moles of NaCl=2×0.01826mol=0.03652mol\text{Moles of } \mathrm{NaCl} = 2 \times 0.01826 \, \mathrm{mol} = 0.03652 \, \mathrm{mol}
4
Calculate the mass of $\mathrm{NaCl}$: Using the molar mass of NaCl\mathrm{NaCl}: Molar mass of NaCl=58.44g/mol\text{Molar mass of } \mathrm{NaCl} = 58.44 \, \mathrm{g/mol} Mass of NaCl=0.03652mol×58.44g/mol=2.134g\text{Mass of } \mathrm{NaCl} = 0.03652 \, \mathrm{mol} \times 58.44 \, \mathrm{g/mol} = 2.134 \, \mathrm{g}
5
Calculate the percent yield: Using the actual yield and theoretical yield: Actual yield=0.973g\text{Actual yield} = 0.973 \, \mathrm{g} Theoretical yield=2.134g\text{Theoretical yield} = 2.134 \, \mathrm{g} Percent yield=(0.973g2.134g)×100%=45.6%\text{Percent yield} = \left( \frac{0.973 \, \mathrm{g}}{2.134 \, \mathrm{g}} \right) \times 100\% = 45.6\%
Answer
The mass of NaCl\mathrm{NaCl} expected to be formed is 2.134g2.134 \, \mathrm{g}, and the percent yield of NaCl\mathrm{NaCl} is 45.6%45.6\%.
Key Concept
Stoichiometry and percent yield calculation
Explanation
The problem involves using stoichiometry to determine the theoretical yield of NaCl\mathrm{NaCl} from the reaction of Na2CO3\mathrm{Na}_{2} \mathrm{CO}_{3} with excess HCl\mathrm{HCl}, and then calculating the percent yield based on the actual yield obtained from the experiment.
