(Yield Problem)

Answer:

Percent Yield Fe  =  82.5%

Explanation:

The actual yield is the value produced after an experiment is conducted. The theoretical yield is the value calculated using the balanced chemical equation and atomic/molar masses.

To find the percent yield of iron (Fe), you need to (1) convert grams Al to moles Al (via atomic mass), then (2) convert moles Al to moles Fe (via mole-to-mole ratio from equation coefficients), then (3) convert moles Fe to grams Fe (via atomic mass), and then (4) calculate the percent yield. It is important to arrange the ratios in a way that allows for the cancellation of units. The final answer should have 3 sig figs to reflect the sig figs of the given values.

Atomic Mass (Mg): 24.305 g/mol

Atomic Mass (Fe): 55.845 g/mol

3 Mg + 2 FeCl₃ -----> 2 Fe + 3 MgCl₂

20.5 g Mg           1 mole              2 moles Fe            55.845 g
-----------------  x  -----------------  x  ----------------------  x  -----------------  =  
                           24.305 g           3 moles Mg             1 mole

=  31.4 g Fe

                                     Actual Yield
Percent Yield  =  ----------------------------------  x  100%
                                 Theoretical Yield

                               25.9 g Fe
Percent Yield  =  --------------------  x  100%
                               31.4 g Fe

Percent Yield  =  82.5%

A 453 g piece of glass at 25.7∘C is left outside on a sunny day. How much heat must the glass absorb from the sun in order to re
Tju [1.3M]

Answer:

Q = 5555.6J

Explanation:

Mass of glass piece, m = 453g

initial temperature = 25.7°C

temperature to be attained = 40.3°C

⇒change in temperature, Δt = 40.3 - 25.7 = 14.6°C

specific heat of glass, s = 0.840J/g°C

Heat absorbed, Q = msΔt

⇒Q = 453×0.840×14.6 = 5555.592J

⇒<u>Q = 5555.6J</u> (rounded to the nearest tenth)

What is the formula of a compound in which element y form ccp lattice and atom x occupy 1/3rd of tetrahedral voids
Kisachek [45]
Y : CCP : 4 atoms
X : tetrahedral voids would be 1/3 × 8 = 8/3

so formula would be Y12X8 or Y3X2 !!

A solution is prepared by dissolving 0.23 mol of lactic acid and 0.27 mol of sodium lactate in water sufficient to yield 1.00 L
PtichkaEL [24]

Explanation:

The solution of the lactic acd and sodium lactate is referred to as a buffer solution.

A buffer solution is an aqueous solution consisting of a mixture of a weak acid and its conjugate base, or vice versa. In this case, the weak acid is the lactic acid and the conjugate base is the sodium lactate.

Buffer solutions are generally known to resist change in pH values.

When a strong base (in this case, NaOH) is added to the buffer, the lactic acid will give up its H+ in order to transform the base (OH-) into water (H2O) and the conjugate base, so we have:

HA + OH- → A- + H2O.

Since the added OH- is consumed by this reaction, the pH will change only slightly.

The NaOH reacts with the weak acid present in the buffer sollution.

lakkis [162]

Answer: It is Mole.

Explanation:

Mole is the SI unit of measurement used to measure the number of things, usually atoms or molecules. One mole of something is equal to 6.02214078×1023 of same things (Avogadro's number).
