Question

What is the theoretical yield, in grams, of LiHCO₃(𝑠) that can be produced from 45.3 grams of LiOH(𝑠) according to the reaction below? 

LiOH(s)+CO2(g)—>LiHCO3(s)

Answer 1

Mass of produced LiOH = 45.3

Molar Mass of CO₂ = 44.01

molar Mass of LiHCO₃ = 67.958

Molar Mass of LiOH = 23.95

= 45.3 × 1/1× 44.01/1 × 67.958

= 29.34g
