Methanol (CH₂OH) can be produced by the reaction of carbon

Last updated: 8/4/2022

Methanol (CH₂OH) can be produced by the reaction of carbon monoxide (CO) with hydrogen (H₂). The balanced chemical reaction is CO(g) + 2 H₂(g) → CH₂OH() a. If 21.409 g of carbon monoxide is reacted with 3.377 g of hydrogen a Which reactant is the limiting reactant? CO(g) H₂(g) b. What mass is the theoretical yield for methanol? Report the mass value in grams to the nearest 0.001 g. Do not enter the unit c. At the completion of the reaction, what mass of the excess reactant will remain? Report the mass value in grams to the nearest 0.001 g. Do not enter the unit.
