How many moles of NaCl are present in 2.50 L of a 0.070 M solution?
posledela

Given :

Volume of NaCl solution 2.5 L .

Molarity of NaCl solution is 0.070 M .

To Find :

How many moles are present in the solution.

Solution :

Let, n be the number of moles.

We know, molarity is given by :

M = \dfrac{n}{V(in\ L)}

So,

n = M \times V\\\\n = 0.070\times 2.5 \\\\n = 0.175\ moles

Therefore, number of moles of NaCl is 0.175 moles.

15 grams of sodium reacts with a certain amount of chlorine to yield 37 grams of sodium chloride, as shown below.
ale4655 [162]

Answer: 22g of chlorine would be needed to carry out this synthesis reaction

Explanation:

A synthesis reaction is one in which two or more than two elements combine together to forma single product.

Na+Cl\rightarrow NaCl

The atoms present in the reactants are found on the product side. According to the law of conservation of mass, the number of atoms on both sides of the arrow must be same as the total mass must be conserved.

15 grams of sodium reacts with 22 grams of chlorine to yield 37 grams of sodium chloride. Thus 22g of chlorine would be needed to carry out this synthesis reaction.

Which of the following is not a reason why actual yield is less than theoretical yield?
Gnom [1K]
Your answer is B, conservation of mass


Recall that percent yield is given by: %Yeild = actual yeild/theoretical yeild x100

During experiments, there are errors made:

• uncertainty in measurements

• losses of reactants and products

• impurity in reactants

• losses during separation (e.g. filtration or purification)

• Some side reactions might also happen.



Among the given options, only conservation of mass does not contribute to a lower actual yield compared to the theoretical yield.
