Chemistry Problems (Balancing Equations)
a) Pb(NO3)2(aq) + NaOH(aq) => Pb(OH)2(s) + NaNo3(aq)
This is the balanced equation
Pb(NO3)2(aq) + 2NaOH(aq) => Pb(OH)2(s) + 2NaNo3(aq)

1/20/10 Assignment Posting
We did an example problem for Colby and talked about the chart of ways stoichiometry problems can be asked. Two bits of homework tonight: HW7 is p. 321-322 #26-30, and HW8 are these four problems.
15. When heated, sodium bicarbonate, NaHCO3, decomposes into sodium carbonate, Na2CO3, water, and carbon dioxide. If 5.00g of NaHCO3 decomposes, what is the mass of the carbon dioxide produced?
16. A reaction between hydrazine, N2H4, and dinitrogen tetroxide, N2O4, has been used to launch rockets into space. The reaction produces nitrogen gas and water vapor.
a. Write a balanced chemical equation for this reaction.
b. What is the mole ratio of N2O4 to N2?
c. How many moles of N2 will be produced if 20,000 mol of N2H4 are used by a rocket?
d. How many grams of H2O are made when 450. Kg of N2O4 are consumed?
17. Joseph Priestly is credited with the discovery of oxygen. He produced O2 by heating mercury (II) oxide, HgO, to decompose it into its elements. How many moles of oxygen could Priestly have produced if he had decomposed 517.84 g of mercury oxide?
18. Iron (III) chloride, FeCl3, can be made by the reaction of iron with chlorine gas. How much iron, in grams, will be needed to completely react with 58.0 g of Cl2?
Have a good night.

We also learned about Actual Yield and Theoretical Yield and how to find the % Yield
There was an equation to how to find the % Yield
Act. Y. - Actual Yield
Th. Y. - Theoretical Yield
(Act. Y./Th. Y.) * 100 = % Yield
We have been asigned to do homework problems 165-175 on pg. 890 so get them things done to turn in before the bell rings on time. Please and Thank You.
Goody Night Get Homework Done!!!!!!

Excess Reactant: substance that is not used up completely in a reaction
When solving problems with chemical reactions and converting grams to moles/ moles to grams/ etc., set up a single equation so that you only round once.
