  1. The BCA Method in Stoichiometry Larry Dukerich Modeling Instruction Program Arizona State University

  2. Balanced Chemical Equations • Atoms are conserved in chemical reactions: balanced chemical equations. • Reactants --> Products • Ratio of particles: mole ratios through coefficients • Ex. 2 Mg + 1 O2 --> 2MgO • two moles of magnesium burn with one mole of oxygen gas to produce two moles of MgO • 2 moles Mg: 1 mole O2: 2 moles MgO

  3. Making Predictions • Using mole ratios we can identify: • How much is needed (before) • How much can be made (after) • To make predictions we need also to consider the changes that occur during the reaction. • BCA: Before-Change-After chart to keep track of what happens to particle/mole ratios during a chemical reaction

  4. Step 1- Balance the equation Hydrogen sulfide gas, which smells like rotten eggs, burns in air to produce sulfur dioxide and water. How many moles of oxygen gas would be needed to completely burn 2.4 moles of hydrogen sulfide?2 H2S + 3 O2 ----> 2 SO2 + 2 H2O Before:ChangeAfter Emphasis on balanced equation

  5. Focus on mole relationships • Step 2: fill in the before line 2 H2S + 3 O2 ----> 2 SO2 + 2 H2O Before: 2.4 xs 0 0ChangeAfter • Assume more than enough O2 to react

  6. Focus on mole relationships • Step 3: use ratio of coefficients to determine change 2 H2S + 3 O2 ----> 2 SO2 + 2 H2O Before: 2.4 xs 0 0Change –2.4 –3.6 +2.4 +2.4After • Reactants are consumed (-), products accumulate (+)

  7. Emphasize that change and final state are not equivalent • Step 4: Complete the table 2 H2S + 3 O2 ----> 2 SO2 + 2 H2O Before: 2.4 xs 0 0Change –2.4 –3.6 +2.4 +2.4After 0 xs 2.4 2.4

  8. Complete calculations on the side • In this case, desired answer is in moles • If mass is required, convert moles to grams in the usual way

  9. Mole Ratios: #1 • Lead will react with hydrochloric acid to produce lead chloride (PbCl2) and hydrogen gas. How many moles of hydrochloric acid are needed to completely react with 4.0 mole of lead? Equation: Before: Change: ____________________________________________________ After:

  10. Equation: • Lead will react with hydrochloric acid to produce lead chloride and hydrogen gas. How many moles of hydrochloric acid are needed to completely react with 4.0 mole of lead? Equation: __Pb + __ HCl --> __PbCl2 + __H2 Before: Change: ____________________________________________________ After:

  11. Balance & Before: • Lead will react with hydrochloric acid to produce lead chloride and hydrogen gas. How many moles of hydrochloric acid are needed to completely react with 4.0 mole of lead? Equation: __Pb + _2_ HCl --> __PbCl2 + __H2 Before: 4 moles excess 0 moles 0 moles Change: ____________________________________________________ After:

  12. Change • Lead will react with hydrochloric acid to produce lead chloride and hydrogen gas. How many moles of hydrochloric acid are needed to completely react with 4.0 mole of lead? Equation: __Pb + _2_ HCl --> __PbCl2 + __H2 Before: 4 moles excess 0 moles 0 moles Change: -4 moles -8moles + 4 mole + 4 mole ____________________________________________________ After:

  13. After • Lead will react with hydrochloric acid to produce lead chloride and hydrogen gas. How many moles of hydrochloric acid are needed to completely react with 4.0 mole of lead? Equation: __Pb + _2_ HCl --> __PbCl2 + __H2 Before: 4 moles excess 0 moles 0 moles Change: -4 moles -8 moles + 4 mole + 4 mole ____________________________________________________ After: 0 mole excess 4 moles 4 moles You Can Convert: moles to grams (multiply moles x molar mass (g/mol))

  14. Mole Rations: #2 • How many moles of hydrogen gas will be produced if 2.5 moles of calcium hydride react according to the following equation? CaH2 + 2 H2O --> Ca(OH)2 + 2 H2 Before Change ___________________________________________ After

  15. Before: • How many moles of hydrogen gas will be produced if 2.5 moles of calcium hydride react according to the following equation? CaH2 + 2 H2O --> Ca(OH)2 + 2 H2 Before 2.5 moles excess 0 moles 0 moles Change ___________________________________________ After

  16. Change: • How many moles of hydrogen gas will be produced if 2.5 moles of calcium hydride react according to the following equation? CaH2 + 2 H2O --> Ca(OH)2 + 2 H2 Before 2.5 moles excess 0 moles 0 moles Change -2.5 moles - 5 moles + 2.5 moles + 5 moles ___________________________________________ After

  22. Only moles go in the BCA table • If given mass of reactants for products, convert to moles first, then use the table.

  23. Limiting reactant problems • BCA approach distinguishes between what you start with and what reacts. • When 0.50 mole of aluminum reacts with 0.72 mole of iodine The balanced equation deals with how many, not how much. • to form aluminum iodide, how many moles of the excess reactant will remain?How many moles of aluminum iodide will be formed? 2 Al + 3 I2 ----> 2 AlI3 Before: 0.50 0.72 0Change After

  24. Limiting reactant problems • Guess which reactant is used up first, then check 2 Al + 3 I2 ----> 2 AlI3 Before: 0.50 0.72 0Change -0.50 -0.75After • It’s clear to students that there’s not enough I2 to react with all the Al.

  25. Limiting reactant problems • Now that you have determined the limiting reactant, complete the table, then solve for the desired answer. 2 Al + 3 I2 ----> 2 AlI3 Before: 0.50 0.72 0Change -0.48 -0.72 +0.48After 0.02 0 0.48

  26. BCA a versatile tool • It doesn’t matter what are the units of the initial quantities • Mass - use molar mass • Gas volume - use molar volume • Solution volume - use molarity • Convert to moles, then use the BCA table • Solve for how many, then for how much
