a) Write the balanced equation for the reaction given above:
b) If 15 grams of copper (II) chloride react with 20 grams of sodium nitrate, how much sodium chloride can be formed?
c) What is the limiting reagent for the reaction in #2? __________________
d) How many grams of copper(II) nitrate is formed?
e) How much of the excess reagent is left over in this reaction?

- When lead (II) nitrate reacts with sodium iodide, sodium nitrate and lead (II) iodide are formed.
a) Balance the equation:
b) If I start with 25.0 grams of lead (II) nitrate and 15.0 grams of sodium iodide, how many grams of sodium nitrate can be formed?
c) What is the limiting reagent in the reaction described in problem 2?
d) How many grams of lead(II) iodide is formed?
e) How much of the nonlimiting reagent will be left over from the reaction in problem #2?
