Question

The reaction of citric acid and sodium bicarbonate is written as: H3C6H5O7(aq) + 3NaHCO3(aq) --> Na3C6H5O7(aq) + 3H2O(l) + 3CO2(g) 1.) Mass of the cup,water and the stirrer = 54.3g 2.) Mass of sodium bicarbonate = 1.00g 3.) Mass of citric acid =0.76g Calculate the theoretical yield of carbon dioxide from 1.00g of sodium bicarbonate. And calculate the percentage yield in the plastic cup. Total lost all help appreciated.

Explanation / Answer

NaHCO3 + H3C6H5O7 --> 3CO2 + 3H2O +? what is the other product that contains Na? is this needed to balance the equation or is it balanced the way it is without the final product(s
