Powdered coke prevent the heat loss. As a result, it prevents burning of carbon electrodes.
Answer:
1.373 mol H₂O
General Formulas and Concepts:
<u>Chemistry - Atomic Structure</u>
- Reading a Periodic Table
- Using Dimensional Analysis
Explanation:
<u>Step 1: Define</u>
24.75 g H₂O
<u>Step 2: Identify Conversions</u>
Molar Mass of H - 1.01 g/mol
Molar Mass of O - 16.00 g/mol
Molar Mass of H₂O - 2(1.01) + 16.00 = 18.02 g/mol
<u>Step 3: Convert</u>
<u />
= 1.37347 mol H₂O
<u>Step 4: Check</u>
<em>We are given 4 sig figs. Follow sig fig rules and round.</em>
1.37347 mol H₂O ≈ 1.373 mol H₂O

Given
Reaction
Cu(s) + 2 AgNO₃(aq) → Cu(NO₃)₂(aq) + 2Ag(s)
Required
The percent yield
Solution
mol AgNO₃(MW=169,87 g/mol) :
= mass : MW
= 127 : 169.87
= 0.748
mol Ag from equation :
= 2/2 x mol AgNO₃
= 2/2 x 0.748
= 0.748
Mass Ag (theoretical) :
= mol x Ar Ag
= 0.748 x 108
= 80.784
% yield = (actual/theoretical) x 100%
%yield = 71.5/80.784 x 100%
<em>%yield = 88.5%</em>
Answer:
Uranium-238 undergoes alpha decay to form Thorium-234 as daughter product.
Explanation:
Alpha decay is indicative of loss of the equivalents of a helium particle emission. The reaction equation for this reaction is shown below:
→ 
I hope this explanation is clear and explanatory.
Th actual yield of the reaction is 24.86 g
We'll begin by calculating the theoretical yield of the reaction.
2Na + Cl₂ → 2NaCl
Molar mass of Na = 23 g/mol
Mass of Na from the balanced equation = 2 × 23 = 46 g
Molar mass of NaCl = 23 + 35.5 = 58.5 g/mol
Mass of NaCl from the balanced = 2 × 58.5 = 117 g
From the balanced equation above,
46 g of Na reacted to produce 117 g of NaCl.
Therefore,
11.5 g of Na will react to produce = (11.5 × 117) / 46 = 29.25 g of NaCl.
Thus, the theoretical yield of NaCl is 29.25 g.
Finally, we shall determine the actual yield of NaCl.
- Theoretical yield = 29.25 g
Actual yield = Percent yield × Theoretical yield
Actual yield = 85% × 29.25
Actual yield = 0.85 × 29.25 g
Actual yield = 24.86 g
