The fizz produced when an Alka-Seltzer tablet is dissolved in water is due to the reaction between sodium bicarbonate and citric acid: NaHCO3(aq) + H3C6H5O7(aq) \rightarrow → CO2(g) + H2O(l) + Na3C6H5O7(aq) After correctly balancing the reaction determine the percent yield (% yield) for this reaction if we start with 1.00 gram of sodium bicarbonate and 1.00 gram of citric acid. Assume that the actual yield for carbon dioxide is 0.400 grams.

The Solvay process for the manufacture of sodium carbonate begins by passing ammonia and carbon dioxide through a solution of sodium chloride to make sodium bicarbonate and ammonium chloride. The equation for this reaction is H2O + NaCl + NH3 + CO2 NH4Cl + NaHCO3 In the next step, sodium bicarbonate is heated to give sodium carbonate and two gases, carbon dioxide and steam. 2NaHCO3 Na2CO3 + CO2 + H2O What is the theoretical yield of sodium carbonate, expressed in...

When a calcium carbonate tablet, like tums, is ingested, it dissolves by reacting with stomach acid, which contains hydrochloric acid. The equation for this reaction is CaCO3(s) + HCl(aq) --->CaCl2(aq) + H2O (I) + CO2(g). How many ml of carbon dioxide would be formed at 37 degree Celsius and 1 atmosphere if sufficient calcium carbonate was ingested to react with 24.9 grams of stomach acid containing 9.5 % HCl by mass?

Rainwater is naturally slightly acidic due to the dissolved carbon dioxide. Acid rain results when acidic sulfur and nitrogen oxides produced during the combustion of coal and oil react with rainwater (see Box 12.1). (a) The partial pressure of CO2 in air saturated with water vapor at 25 C and 1.00 atm is 3.04 104 atm. Henry’s constant for CO2 in water is 2.3 102 molL1atm1; and, for carbonic acid, pKa1 6.37. Assuming that all the dissolved CO2 can be...
