125 grams of HCl are used. Zn(s) + 2HCl(aq) = ZnCl2(aq) + H2(g). What is the percent yield if 1.2 moles of hydrogen are actually

produced?

Answer:

70%

Explanation:

To find the percent yield, you need to (1) convert grams HCl to moles (via molar mass from periodic table), then (2) convert moles HCl to moles H₂ (via mole-to-mole ratio from equation), then (3) calculate the percent yield H₂ (via percent yield equation).

Zn (s) + 2 HCl (aq) --> ZnCl₂ (aq) + 1 H₂ (g)

Molar Mass (HCl): 1.008 g/mole + 35.45 g/mole
Molar Mass (HCl) = 36.458 g/mole

125 g HCl         1 mole HCl         1 mole H₂
---------------  x  ------------------  x  ------------------  = 1.7 moles H₂
                         36.458 g           2 moles HCl

(actual yield / theoretical yield) x 100% = percent yield

theoretical/calculated yield = 1.7 moles H₂
actual yield = 1.2 moles H₂

(1.2 moles H₂ / 1.7 moles H₂) x 100% = 71%

Therefore, the best percent yield of hydrogen produced is 70%.

What do the elements within a "period" have in common? (pick one)
Gnesinka [82]

Answer:

All of the elements in a period have the same number of atomic orbitals. For example, every element in the top row (the first period) has one orbital for its electrons. All of the elements in the second row (the second period) have two orbitals for their electrons.

How many grams of solute are needed to prepare a 3.50% mass/mass solution that has a solution mass of 2.50x102 grams.
Elis [28]
One way of expressing concentration is by percent. It may be on the basis of mass, mole or volume. Percent is expressed as the amount of solute per amount of the solution. For this case, we are given the percent by mass. In order to solve the amount of solute, we multiply the percent with the amount of the solution.

Mass of solute = percent by mass x mass solution
Mass of solute = 0.0350 x 2.50 x10^2 = 8.75 grams of solute

3/4(x-2)=x-1 please answer me ​
Elan Coil [88]

Answer:

-2

Explanation:

3/2 (x-2) = x-1

<=> 3/4 x - 3/2 = x-1

<=> 3/4 x - x = 3/2 -1

<=> -1/4 x =1/2

<=> x= -2
