Theoretical yield = 2.397

The product could be sodium carbonate

percent yield = 98.456%

When nahco3 completely decomposes, it can follow this balanced chemical equation:

2nahco3 → na2co3 h2co3

If the mass of the NaHCO3 sample is 3.80 g, we must use stoichiometry to calculate the theoretical yields of each of the products.

mass of NaHCO₃ = 3.80 g

molar mass of NaHCO₃ = 84 g/mol

so the no of moles of NaHCO₃ = 3.80/84 =  0.0452 mol

You see, one mole of sodium carbonate and one mole of hydrogen carbonate are produced from two moles of sodium bicarbonate.

so, the no of moles of sodium carbonate = 0.0452/2 = 0.0226 mol

∴ mass of sodium carbonate ( Na₂CO₃) = no of moles of Na₂CO₃ × molar mass of Na₂CO₃

=  0.0226 × 106 ≈ 2.397 g

no of moles of hydrogen carbonate = 0.0452/2 = 0.0226 mol

mass of the hydrogen carbonate ( H₂CO₃) = no of moles of H₂CO₃ × molar mass of H₂CO₃

= 0.0226 × 62 g = 1.401 g

mass of one of the products was measured to be 2.36 g , from above data, we can say it must be sodium carbonate because value is the nearest of 2.397 g.

percentage yield = experimental yield/theoretical yield × 100

here experimental yield of Na₂CO₃ = 2.36 g

and theoretical yield of Na₂CO₃ = 2.397 g

∴ % yield = 2.36/2.397 × 100 ≈ 98.456%

Therefore the percentage yield of the product is 98.456%

Why is copper used in the manufacture of computers?
Stells [14]

IBM and others are using copper instead of aluminum in the most powerful computer chips they manufacture. Because of copper's superior electrical conductivity, this technology enables conductor channel lengths and widths to be significantly reduced.

. Metallic iron has a body-centered cubic lattice with all atoms at lattice points and a unit cell whose edge length is 286.6 pm
adell [148]

Answer:

\large \boxed{\text{55.8 u}}

Explanation:

1. Calculate the volume of the unit cell

V = l³ = (2.866 × 10⁻⁸ cm)³ = 2.354 × 10⁻²³ cm³

2. Calculate the mass of a unit cell

\text{Mass} = 2.866 \times 10^{-23}\text{ cm}^{3} \times \dfrac{\text{7.87 g}}{\text{1 cm}^{3}} = 1.853 \times 10^{-22} \text{ g}

3. Calculate the mass of one atom

A body-centred unit cell contains two atoms.

\text{Mass of 1 atom} = \dfrac{1.853 \times 10^{-22} \text{ g}}{\text{2 atoms}} \times \dfrac{\text{1 u}}{1.661 \times 10^{-24}\text{ g}} = \textbf{55.8 u}\\\\\text{The molar mass of Fe from the Periodic Table is $\large \boxed{\textbf{55.845 g/mol}}$}

Why has the acidity of the ocean increased over the years?
aalyn [17]

Answer:

I think it's A

Explanation:

Carbon dioxide is added to the atmosphere whenever people burn fossil fuels. ... As the amount of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere rises, the oceans absorb a lot of it. In the ocean, carbon dioxide reacts with seawater to form carbonic acid. This causes the acidity of seawater to increase.
