How many atoms in Ga2Se3

A student isolated 7.2 g of 1-bromobutane reacting equimolar amounts of 1-butanol (10 ml) and NaBr (11.1 g) in the presence of s

Alla [95]

Answer: The percent yield of the 1-bromobutane is 48.65 %

Explanation:

To calculate the number of moles, we use the equation:

$\text{Number of moles}=\frac{\text{Given mass}}{\text{Molar mass}}$ .....(1)

For NaBr:

Given mass of NaBr = 11.1 g

Molar mass of NaBr = 103 g/mol

Putting values in equation 1, we get:

$\text{Moles of NaBr}=\frac{11.1g}{103g/mol}=0.108mol$

The chemical equation for the reaction of 1-butanol and NaBr is:

$\text{1-butanol + NaBr}\rightarrow \text{1-bromobutane}$

By Stoichiometry of the reaction

1 mole of NaBr produces 1 mole of 1-bromobutane

So, 0.108 moles of NaBr will produce = $\frac{1}{1}\times 0.108=0.108$ moles of 1-bromobutane

Now, calculating the mass of 1-bromobutane from equation 1, we get:

Molar mass of 1-bromobutane = 137 g/mol

Moles of 1-bromobutane = 0.108 moles

Putting values in equation 1, we get:

$0.108mol=\frac{\text{Mass of 1-bromobutane}}{137g/mol}\\\\\text{Mass of 1-bromobutane}=(0.108mol\times 137g/mol)=14.80g$

To calculate the percentage yield of 1-bromobutane, we use the equation:

$\%\text{ yield}=\frac{\text{Experimental yield}}{\text{Theoretical yield}}\times 100$

Experimental yield of 1-bromobutane = 7.2 g

Theoretical yield of 1-bromobutane = 14.80 g

Putting values in above equation, we get:

$\%\text{ yield of 1-bromobutane}=\frac{7.2g}{14.80g}\times 100\\\\\% \text{yield of 1-bromobutane}=48.65\%$

Hence, the percent yield of the 1-bromobutane is 48.65 %

In order for a process to be spontaneous, Multiple Choice the entropy of the surroundings must increase. the entropy of the surr

Crazy boy [7]

Answer:

The correct answer is entropy change of the surrounding plus the entropy change of the system must be positive.

Explanation:

The term entropy is a state function.Entropy can be defined as the disorder or randomness of the molecules in a system.

A spontaneous reaction is a type of reaction which deals with the release of free energy.The change of free energy in case of spontaneous reaction is always negative.

According to the second law of thermodynamics a spontaneous reaction will occur in a system if the total entropy of both system and surrounding increases during the reaction.
