Question
Chapter 22, Problem 22.49QP
Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation:
Balanced equation for the reaction of potassium nitrate with carbon by heating and theoretical yield of potassium nitrite has to be calculated.
Concept introduction:
Balanced equation
The overall mass of starting materials should be equal to the overall mass of the products. This is governed by the law of conservation of mass.
Theoretical yield
The yield obtained on a paper by the calculation of reactant amounts taken for that balanced

Tin is extracted from its ore cassiterite, SnO2 by reaction with carbon from coal.
Write a balanced equation for this reaction.
What mass of tin can be produced from 0.300 mol cassiterite?
How many grams of carbon are required to produce this much tin?
A mixture of xenon and fluorine was heated. A sample of the white solid that formed reacted with hydrogen to yield 81 mL of xenon (at STP) and hydrogen fluoride, which was collected in water, giving a solution of hydrofluoric acid. The hydrofluoric acid solution was titrated, and 68.43 mL of 0.3172 M sodium hydroxide was required to reach the equivalence point. Determine the empirical formula for the white solid and write balanced chemical equations for the reactions involving xenon.
Aluminum is manufactured commercially by the Hall-Heroult process. The overall chemical equation for this process is:
2Al2O3 + 3C -> 4Al + 3CO2
Calculate the theoretical yield of aluminum, if 5.00 kg of aluminum oxide is allowed to react with 2.00 kg of carbon.
