The maximum mass of B₄C that can be formed from 2.00 moles of boron (III) oxide is 55.25 grams.
Stoichiometry of the reaction gives idea about the relative amount of moles of reactants and products present in the given chemical reaction.
Given chemical reaction is:
2B₂O₃ + 7C → B₄C + 6CO
From the stoichiometry of the reaction, it is clear that:
2 moles of B₂O₃ = produces 1 mole of B₄C
Now mass of B₄C will be calculated by using the below equation:
W = (n)(M), where
W = (1)(55.25) = 55.25 g
Hence required mass of B₄C is 55.25 grams.
