hey i have just derived a small method ....plz see if it helps u
when same amount (by mass) of different elements are given and a compound is to be prepared, then multiply no. of atoms of each element by their respective atomic mass, look for the maximum value and divide the given mass of the element by this number

ex: 10g of Na and S      are given and Na2S is to be prepared then multiply
at. mass of Na with no. of atoms ( 2 *23)        and similarly for S ( 32*1)
max value is 2*23 = 46, so no. of moles of compound formed = 10/46

guys plz......  correct me if wrong

No,dude,this is not the right answer.

As per u'r example,u get 780/46 mols of Na2S if u do the sum in the usual way......!!!!!!

FIND LIMITING agent.which is In.
accodring there will be combinning other elements ka moles.
see the ratio is 1: 4:4 (for 1 mole)
by solving for moles of indium we get0.0086
.: no.of moles of Mg = .25 * 0.0086
= 0.00215(appx)
= no.of moles of the compund(from the ratio)


plz rate.
feel free to ask any doubt.

b)0.3


c)0.0917

d00.0087

antonyajay21 how can u get 780/46 moles by usual method.......
i mean it is completely out of logic
for one mole of Na2S 78 grams of total ingredients are required while in my example there are just 20grams(10+10), so how can u get such large no. of moles(780/46) from such a small qty. by my method i m getting the answer app. equal to savvej's answer

Sorry I did the wrong calculations in the previous step.Well now here's my logic.......


  2Na  +   S --------->Na2S

   46g       32g         78g

 Now,
46g --->32g

therefore,10g----> 320/46=6.96g



therefore,Na is limiting.3 g of sulphur is in exess.



now again,   32g------>78g

therefore,     7 g------->(78*7)/32=17.06 grams of Na2S.


Now, 78g------>1mol

therefore, 17.06g------>0.218 mols of Na2S.

What doubt I have in my question is there r three elements given and wich one is limiting the other and perfrm the stoichiometric calculations....

Even u'r shortcut method was right.But I am asking this question on the board point of view......
