Key Reactions with Conditions
Na2CO3 + 2 HCl → 2 NaCl + H2O + CO2 (aq, room temp)
CaCO3 --[heat, >840 °C]--> CaO + CO2
2 H2 + O2 --[spark / Pt catalyst]--> 2 H2O
H_{2}$$SO_{4} + 2 NaOH → Na_{2}$$SO_{4} + 2 H2O (neutralisation, aq)
Limiting Reagent Method
- Convert all given masses to moles using molar masses.
- Divide each by its stoichiometric coefficient.
- The reactant with the smallest such value is the limiting reagent.
- Theoretical yield = moles of limiting reagent × stoichiometric ratio to product × molar mass of product.
