Write the balanced chemical equation for the reaction: \[ 6 \text{WCl}_6 + 6 \text{Bi} \rightarrow \text{W}_6\text{Cl}_{12} + 6 \text{BiCl}_3 \]
Calculate the molar mass of WCl6 and Bi using the periodic table.
Determine the number of moles of WCl6 and Bi by dividing the given masses by their respective molar masses.
Identify the limiting reactant by comparing the mole ratio of WCl6 to Bi from the balanced equation with the calculated moles.
Use the moles of the limiting reactant to calculate the moles of W6Cl12 formed, then convert it to grams using its molar mass.

Concetti chiave

Ecco i concetti essenziali che devi comprendere per rispondere correttamente alla domanda.

Limiting Reactant

The limiting reactant is the substance that is completely consumed first in a chemical reaction, thus determining the maximum amount of product that can be formed. In a reaction, if one reactant is present in a lesser amount than required by the stoichiometric ratios, it limits the formation of products. Identifying the limiting reactant is crucial for calculating the yield of the desired product.

Stoichiometry

Stoichiometry is the branch of chemistry that deals with the quantitative relationships between the reactants and products in a chemical reaction. It involves using balanced chemical equations to determine the amounts of substances consumed and produced. Understanding stoichiometry is essential for calculating how much product can be formed from given amounts of reactants.

Molar Mass

Molar mass is the mass of one mole of a substance, typically expressed in grams per mole (g/mol). It is calculated by summing the atomic masses of all atoms in a molecule. Knowing the molar mass of reactants and products is necessary for converting between grams and moles, which is vital for stoichiometric calculations in chemical reactions.
