(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%

When biological samples of unknown origins are discovered at a crime scene, what should investigators do?a. assume no pathogens
adoni [48]

Answer: assume pathogens are present and treat the samples accordingly

Explanation:

When investigators are unable to conclusively ascertain the source of a biological sample found at a crime scene, the correct thing to do is to treat it as if pathogens are present in it and handle it according to set rules on how to handle pathogens.

This is done to ensure that if a pathogen is indeed present, it would not cause a health emergency by infecting those who come in contact with the samples at the scene.
