molarity problem
« on: August 29, 2008, 02:13:52 PM »
What mass of aluminum hydroxide is produced when 50.0 ml of .200 M Al(NO3)3 reacts with 200.0 ml of .100 M KOH?

Al(NO3)3 + 3KOH-> Al(OH)3 + 3KNO3

.05L * .2 M = .01 mol Al(NO3)3
.2L * .1 M = .02 mol KOH

but i dont know where to go from here

hey iluvlost,

can you determine first the limiting reagent, then the rest will be simple stoichiometry.
No matters what results are waiting for us, it's nothing but the DESTINY!!!!!!!!!!!!

looks to me like your aluminium nitrate is in excess/

so basically 3 mols KOH produces 1 mol Aluminium hydroxide
therefore .02 mol KOH produces .02/3 mols of Aluminium hydroxide

mols * molar mass = mass
