Chapter 9, Problem 100CP

he production capacity for acrylonitrile $\left({\text{C}}_3{\text{H}}_3\text{N}\right)$in the United States is over 2 billion pounds per year. Acrylonitrile, the building block tor acrylonitrile fibers and a variety of plastics, is produced from gaseous propylene, ammonia, and oxygen:

:math> 2 C 3 H 6 ( g ) + 2 NH 3 ( g ) + 3 O 2 → 2 C 3 H 3 N ( g ) + 6 H 2 O ( g )

Assuming 100% yield, determine the mass of acrylonitrile which can be produced from the mixture below:

l>

Mass	Reactant

msp;  $5.23\times {10}^2\text{g}$propylene

td>

msp;  $\text{5}\text{.00}\times {\text{10}}^2\text{g}$ammonia

td>

msp;  $\text{1}\text{.00}\times {\text{10}}^3\text{g}$oxygen

i>What mass of water is formed from your mixture?

Calculate the mass (in grams) of each reactant after the reaction is complete.
