Large amounts of titanium metal are refined by reacting titanium(III) chloride solution with magnesium metal. To test this refining process, a student reacts 1.52 kg of magnesium metal with excess titanium(III) chloride solution. After the reaction was complete, the student had extracted 1.62 kg of titanium metal. From this data, calculate the percent error of this experiment. Hint: Write a balanced chemical reaction equation and calculate theoretical mass first. Do not show your work in the space provided. Record only your final answer with the correct number of significant digits and the proper units. Answer: Evaluate your calculated percent error. Is this an acceptable percent error? Yes No

For the reaction of sodium sulfide with iron(III) chloride below (as an unbalanced reaction - that's how I will almost always give you reactions. ALWAYS check to see if a reaction is balanced before you use it. You balanced it in the last question; make sure you have that right before you start calculating!), you have 319.5 kg of sodium sulfide and 502.3 kg of iron(III) chloride available. What mass (in kilograms) of sodium sulfide do you NEED if you're going to reduce all of the iron(III) chloride you have? Na2S(s) + FeCl3(s) → Fe2S3(s) + NaCl(s)
