If you hadn't added quite enough hydrochloric acid to consume all the magnesium metal, what would be the effect of this error on

the percent yield in your experiment? Would the actual yield ( and thus the percent yield) be erroneously high, low, or be unaffected by not adding enough HCl? Explain

If enough HCl is not added, the percent yield will be lower as all the magnesium metal has not reacted with HCl.

<h3>What is percent yield of a reaction?</h3>

The percent yield of a reaction is the ratio of the actual yield and the expected yield expressed as a percentage.

  • Percent yield = actual yield/expected yield × 100%

The reaction between magnesium metal and HCl liberates hydrogen gas and forms magnesium chloride salt.

If enough HCl was not added to react with all the magnesium metal, the actual yield will be lower.

Hence, percent yield will be lower as well.

Therefore, the percent yield will be lower if all the magnesium metal has not reacted with HCl.

What will be the equilibrium temperature when a 245 g block of lead at 300oC is placed in 150-g aluminum container containing 82
loris [4]

Answer:

The correct approach is "12.25°C".

Explanation:

Given:

Mass of lead,

mc = 245 g

Initial temperature,

tc = 300°C

Mass of Aluminum,

ma = 150 g

Initial temperature,

ta = 12.0°C

Mass of water,

mw = 820 g

Initial temperature,

tw = 12.0°C

Now,

The heat received in equivalent to heat given by copper.

The quantity of heat = m\times s\times t \ J

then,

⇒ 245\times .013\times (300-T) = 150\times .9\times (T-12.0) + 820\times 4.2\times (T-12.0)

⇒             3.185(300-T) = 135(T-12.0) + 3444(T-12.0)

⇒             955.5-3.185T=135T-1620+3444T-41328

⇒                         43903.5 = 3582.185 T

⇒                                  T = 12.25^{\circ} C

How many grams hydrogen in 4.5 mol H2SO4
swat32
H2SO4 ---> 2H^+ + SO4^2-

Hence n H+ = 9 mols

Mass of H = nM = (9*1) = 9g


Alternately

mass of H2SO4= nM= 4.5*98= 441

Mass of H= mass h2so4 * molar mass of H/molar mass of h2so4
Mass of H= 441 * 2/98 = 9g

How many formula units of CaO are in 32.7 g of CaO?
zhuklara [117]

Answer:

D) 3.51x10²³ formula units

Explanation:

To know this, we need to calculate the molecular mass of CaO. To do that, let's use the atomic mass of each element of this compound.

Ca: 40.08 g/mol;    O: 16 g/mol

With these given AM, let's calculate the molar mass of CaO:

Mm CaO = 40.08 + 16 = 56.08 g/mol

Now that we have the MM of CaO, it's time to determine the moles of CaO:

moles = mass / MM

moles = 32.7 / 56.08 = 0.5831 moles

Finally to get the formula units, we need to use the Avogadro's number which is 6.02x10²³. According to this number, 1 mole of any substance has this number of atoms, molecules or formula units. So, if we have 0.5831 moles, then the formula units will be:

FU = 0.5831 * 6.02x10²³

<h2>FU = 3.51x10²³ formula units</h2>

Hope this helps
