Question

Can someone please help me with this question also explain the answers I am so confused thank you.

Answer 1

The theoretical yield of H₂S is 13.5 g.

The percent yield is 75.5 %.

What is the theoretical yield of H₂S from the reaction?

The equation of the reaction is given below:

• FeS + 2 HCl → FeCl₂+ H₂S

Moles of FeS reacting = mass/molar mass

Molar mass of FeS = 88 g/mol

Moles of FeS reacting = 35/88 = 0.398 moles

Moles of H₂S produced = 0.398 moles

Molar mass of H₂S = 34 g/mol

Mass of H₂S produced = 0.398 * 34 = 13.5 g

Theoretical yield of H₂S is 13.5 g.

• Percent yield = actual yield/theoretical yield * 100%

Actual yield of H₂S = 10.2 g

Percent yield = 10.2/13.5 * 100%

Percent yield = 75.5 %

In conclusion, the actual yield is less than the theoretical yield.
