Typically, the actual yield is lower than the theoretical yield because few reactions complete (i.e., are not 100% efficient) or because not all of the product in a reaction is collected. It is also conceivable for the real yield to exceed the theoretical yield.

What is theoretical yield ?

Theoretical yield is what would be obtained if 100% of the reaction was completed and no product was wasted in any way; however, procedures are not this efficient. Everything is dependent on the experimenter's precision and the reaction. Some reactions are reversible, meaning that less than 100% of the reaction proceeds to completion; some reactions do not go to completion because they require a large amount of energy or additional time, for example. Substances in the reaction may be lost throughout the method or difficult to separate from other sections of the experiment. In chemistry, some degree of inaccuracy is always expected.

As part of a soil analysis on a plot of land, a scientist wants to determine the ammonium content using gravimetric analysis wit

Answer:

Mass percentage of NH₄Cl = 3.54%

Mass percentage of K₂CO₃ = 1.01%

Explanation:

If a 200.0 mL aliquot produced 0.105 g of KB(C₆H₅)₄, then a 100.0 mL aliquot would produce 1/2 * 0.105 g = 0.0525 g of KB(C₆H₅)₄.

Therefore, mass of NH₄B(C₆H₅)₄ in the 100.0 ml aliquot = (0.277 - 0.0525)g = 0.2245 g

Number of moles of NH₄B(C₆H₅)₄ in 0.2245 g = 0.2245 g/ 337.27 g/mol = 0.0006656 moles

In 500 ml solution, number of moles present = 0.0006656 * 500/100 = 0.003328 moles.

From equation of the reaction; mole ratio of NH₄⁺ and NH₄B(C₆H₅)₄ = 1:1

Similarly, mole ratio of NH₄⁺ and NH₄Cl = 1:1

Therefore, moles of NH₄Cl in 500 ml sample = 0.003328 moles

Mass of NH₄Cl = 0.003328 mol * 53.492 g/mol = 0.178 g

Mass percentage of NH₄Cl = (0.178/5.025) * 100% = 3.54%

Number of moles of KB(C₆H₅)₄ in 0.105 g (precipitated from 200.0 ml aliquot) = 0.105 g/ 358.33 g/mol = 0.000293 moles

In 500 ml solution, number of moles present = 0.000293 * 500/200 = 0.0007326 moles.

From equation of the reaction; mole ratio of K⁺ and KB(C₆H₅)₄ = 1:1

Similarly, mole ratio of K⁺ and K₂CO₃ = 2:1

Therefore, moles of K₂CO₃ in 500 ml sample = 0.0007326/2 moles = 0.0003663 moles

Mass of K₂CO₃ = 0.0003663 mol * 138.21 g/mol = 0.05063 g

Mass percentage of K₂CO₃ = (0.05063/5.025) * 100% = 1.01%

Why do you need to use soap when you wash oil from your hands

yawa3891 [41]

Answer:

Germs stick to the oil on your hands, and washing with just water doesn't work because oil and water don't mix, but soap dislodges the germs and oil from your hands

zubka84 [21]

Answer:

Y is a 3-chloro-3-methylpentane.

The structure is shown in the figure attached.

Explanation:

The radical chlorination of 3-methylpentane can lead to a tertiary substituted carbon (Y) and to a secondary one (X).

The E2 elimination mechanism, as shown in the figure, will happen with a simulyaneous attack from the base and elimination of the chlorine. This means that primary and secondary substracts undergo the E2 mechanism faster than tertiary substracts.

The relatively high boiling point of water is due to water having

Verizon [17]

The answer should be hydrogen bonding. Water only has oxygen and hydrogen in it, which are both nonmetals, so you know the answer cannot be metallic or ionic. It also cannot be nonpolar because the electronegativity of the oxygens will make the molecule polar. You can also know it is hydrogen bonding because it can only take place when a hydrogen is attached to an oxygen, fluorine, or nitrogen. These bonds are very strong attractions, so the molecules are extremely hard to pull apart, creating a high boiling point. Hope that helps!
