Answer:

Mass = 87.952 g

Explanation:

Given data:

Mass of phosphorus = 20.0 g

Theoretical yield of P₂O₃ = ?

Solution:

Chemical equation:

P₄ + 3O₂  →  2P₂O₃

Number of moles of phosphorus:

Number of moles = mass/ molar mass

Number of moles = 20.0 g / 123.9 g/mol

Number of moles = 0.2 mol

Now we will compare the moles of phosphorus with P₂O₃.

                         P₄         :          P₂O₃

                          1           :           2

                         0.2        :         2/1×0.2 = 0.4 mol

Theoretical yield:

Mass = number of moles × molar mass

Mass = 0.4 mol  × 219.88 g/mol

Mass = 87.952 g

State the number of sig figs in each value:
Rasek [7]

Answer:

Explanation:

Significant figure implies number of digits that are to be considered. Some rules are required to be considered when writing a given expression to an expected significant figures.

So that:

1) 0.00004050 is 4 significant figures

2) 54.7000 is 6 significant figures

3) 1,000.09 is 6 significant figures

4) 0.039 is 2 significant figures

The mass percent of hydrogen in hydrogen peroxide, h2o2, is
miss Akunina [59]
The atomic weight of H is 1, O is 16.
There are two of each in a hydrogen peroxide molecule.
(1*2)+(16*2)=2+32
2+32=34
The weight of the whole molecule is 34, and hydrogen makes up 2 of that.
(2/34)*100=0.0588235294*100
0.0588235294*100=5.88235294

The percentage mass of hydrogen in a hydrogen peroxide molecule is 5.88%
