No, the company will not be able to make enough silver in order to complete the order by reacting silver nitrate with zinc . It is because they have less than the required amount of reactants.
The reduction of Silver Nitrate to Silver by Zinc takes place through the following reaction.
2AgNO₃ + Zn → 2Ag + Zn(NO₃)₂
It is from the equation that we can infer that 2 moles of AgNO₃ produce 2 moles of silver.
If we consider the zinc to be used as number of moles=mass/RAM
Then, RAM of zinc =65.38
No. of moles=300/65.38
=4.588moles
In order to produce 800 grams of silver they require: 800/107.868 moles = 7.4165 moles of silver nitrate, because the ratio of silver nitrate to silver produced is 1:1
The number of moles of silver nitrate that is available at the hand of the company=600/169.872
=3.53 moles.
As the amount of reactants available is less than the required the company will not be able to produce the 800 grams of silver required.
