compound by combustion
« on: February 14, 2007, 10:25:54 PM »
i donot understand question number 1 or 3 maybe you can help me clear it up cause i dont know what its asking for. or could you help me set it up. i would like to thank you in advance for you prompt response. :)


  A chemical compound used in photography is silver bromide. A photographer decides to mix her own developing solution by combining silver nitrate and sodium bromide. She needs to produce 20 lb. of silver bromide to replenish her supply.

1. Make a list of the information you need to determine how much of each reactant is needed to produce 20 lb. of product.

2. Write a balanced equation for this reaction.
3. How many moles of each reactant are required to produce one mole of product?

You need balanced equation to start. And you need to understand this balanced equation. Please read this stoichiometric calculations introduction page.
