chem lab report and calculation

CHM 117 Experiment 3 Spring 2018

Name: Section:

Stoichiometry of a Chemical Reaction Pre-Lab Report

1. What is Stoichiometry?

2. What is a Chemical Equation?

3. Balance and then interpret the chemical equation:

NaOH + CuSO4 → Cu(OH)2 + Na2SO4

4. Based on your interpretation of the chemical equation from the previous question. How many grams of CuSO4 are needed to react completely with 3.56 g of NaOH?

5. If in the previous problem, Sodium hydroxide (NaOH) is delivered as a 3.50 M solution. What volume of the solution would be needed to consume the entire amount of CuSO4?
