Stoichiometry I
Please answer the following questions:
1) Balance this equation:
_____ LiOH + _____ Fe(NO3)3 → _____ LiNO3 + _____ Fe(OH)3
2) What type of chemical reaction is taking place in this process? ___________________
3) If I perform this reaction by combining 25.0 grams of LiOH with an excess of Fe(NO3)3,
how much Fe(OH)3 will I be able to make?
4) If 47.5 grams of Fe(OH)3 are actually made, what is my percent yield for this reaction?
5) Is the answer to question 4 reasonable? Explain why or why not.
6) What does it mean to say that we used “an excess of Fe(NO3)3” when performing this
reaction?
