Limiting Reactant Lab Report Name: Course and Section:CHM121 Date:03-11-24 Unknown #:18 Question #1 What was the total mass of the original unknown mixture? 2.030g Question #2 What was the total mass of the precipitate (ppt)? 0.884g Question #3 What was the limiting reactant? Explain how you determined this information. The limiting reactant was sodium phosphate. I say this because when we added the supernatant liquid into the sodium phosphate it reacted, therefore making it the limiting reactant. Question #4 What was the excess reactant? Explain how you determined this information. The excess reactant was zinc sulfate because when the supernatant liquid was added there was no reaction to it. Question #5 What was the mass of the limiting reactant that was consumed in the reaction. Show calculations to support your answer. 0.884mol/386.08g=0.00228mol Zn3PO4 *1:3 ratio =0.00687mol Na3PO4/164g/mol Na3PO4= 1.00g limiting reactant Question #6 What was the total mass of the excess reactant in the original mixture. Show calculations to support your answer. 2.030g-1.00g=1.03g of excess
Question #7 Calculate the % by mass of the ZnSO 4 and Na 3 PO 4 in the original mixture. Na3PO4=(1/2.030)*100%=49.3% ZnSO4=(1.03/2.030)*100%=50.7%
