The percentage yield of the given reaction is 77.33%.

What is percentage yield?
Reactants
frequently produce fewer product quantities than predicted by the chemical reaction's formula. The percentage of a theoretical yield that's been produced in a reaction is calculated using the percent yield formula. Working through a stoichiometry problem yields the theoretical yield, which is the ideal quantity of the final product. The actual yield is determined by calculating the volume of the product formed. We can determine the percentage yield by dividing the actual yield by the theoretical yield.

Moles is calculated by using the formula:
Moles of Ammonia:
Given mass of ammonia = 150g
Molar mass of ammonia = 17 g/mol
Putting values in above equation, we get:

Moles of Oxygen
Given mass of oxygen = 150g
Molar mass of oxygen = 32 g/mol
Putting values in above equation, we get:
For the given chemical equation:

By Stoichiometry,
5 moles of oxygen reacts with 4 moles of ammonia.
So, 4.6875 moles of oxygen will react with =  of ammonia
As, moles of ammonia required is less than the calculated moles. Hence, ammonia is present in excess and is termed as excess reagent.
Therefore, oxygen is considered as a limiting reagent because it limits the formation of products.

By Stoichiometry of the given reaction:
5 moles of oxygen gas produces 4 moles of nitric oxide
So, 4.6875 moles of oxygen gas will produce =  of nitric oxide

Now, to calculate the theoretical amount of nitric oxide, we use equation 1: Molar mass of nitric oxide = 30 g/mol
 Given mass of nitric oxide = 112.5 g
Now, to calculate the percentage yield, we use the formula:
Experimental yield = 87 g
Theoretical yield = 112.5 g
Putting values in above equation, we get:
Hence, the percentage yield of the given reaction is 77.33%.

Explain the volume of ideal gasses as related to the molar concept.
horrorfan [7]

Answer:

n = Initial volume/22.4L

Explanation:

The molar concept is simply one that is used to find the Number of moles and explain the relationship it has with avogadro's number, molecular mass, molar mass e.t.c.

Now, in terms of molar mass, number of moles is given by the formula;

n = mass of the sample/molar mass

In terms of avogadro's number, number of moles is;

1 mole = avogadro's number = 6.02 × 10^(23)

Now, when dealing with ideal gases, the molar volume of an ideal gas is 22.4 L.

Now the relationship between this volume and the mole concept is that the number of moles is gotten by dividing the initial volume by this molar volume.

Thus;

n = Initial volume/22.4L

Which of these statements about mixtures is true?
Lerok [7]

Answer: Option (d) is the correct answer.

Explanation:

When two or more different substances are mixed together then it results in the formation of a mixture.

Mixture are of two types, that is, homogeneous mixture and heterogeneous mixture.

In homogeneous mixture, the constituent particles are distributed evenly throughout the mixture.

Whereas in heterogeneous mixture, the constituent particles are non-uniformly distributed.

Thus, we can conclude that mixtures are classified based on the distribution of particles in them.
