How many grams of sodium sulfate will be formed if you start with 5 moles of sodium hydroxide?

Answer 1

I am going to assume this is the reaction we are working with...

2 NaOH + H2SO4 → Na2SO4 + 2 H2O

5 moles of sodium hydroxide (NaOH) will yield 2.5 moles of sodium sulfate (Na2SO4).

Google says the molar mass of Na2SO4 is 142.0 g

Multiply 142 and 2.5 to get 355.

Therefore, 355.0 grams of sodium sulfate will be produced.

I hopes this helps.
