Answer:

92.87 g.

Explanation:

∵ The percentage yield = (actual yield/theoretical yield)*100.

We need to calculate the theoretical yield:

From the balanced reaction:

It is clear that 1 mol of PCl₃ reacts with 1 mol of Cl₂ to produce 1 mol of PCl₅.

We need to calculate the no. of moles of 73.7 g PCl₃:

n = mass/molar mass = (73.7 g)/(137.33 g/mol) = 0.536 mol.

<u><em>Using cross multiplication:</em></u>

1 mol of PCl₃ produce → 1 mol of PCl₅, from stichiometry.

∴ 0.536 mol of PCl₃ produce → 0.536 mol of PCl₅.

∴ The mass of PCl₅ (theoretical yield) = (no. of moles) * (molar mass) = (0.536 mol)*(208.24 g/mol) = 111.62 g.

<em>∵ The percentage yield = (actual yield/theoretical yield)*100.</em>

The percentage yield = 83.2%, theoretical yield = 111.62 g.

∴ The actual yield of PCl₅ = (The percentage yield)(theoretical yield)/100 = (83.2%)(111.62 g)/100 = 92.87 g.

2H+ H- H+ n + energy

lbvjy [14]

from an external source of power

Explanation:

The energy needed for nuclear fusion comes from an external source of power.

Nuclear fusion is the combination of small sized atomic nuclei to form larger ones.

The reaction releases a huge amount of energy but also requires a large activation energy to start up.

The energy input require to drive two nuclei into fusion comes from an external source.
Nuclear fusion has a high activation energy which serves as the energy barrier for this reaction to take place.
The energy comes from the surrounding and once initiated, spontaneous chain reactions are set up.

Ethyl butyrate, CH3CH2CH2CO2CH2CH3, is an artificial fruit flavor commonly used in the food industry for such flavors as orange

SIZIF [17.4K]

Answer:

A. 10.0 grams of ethyl butyrate would be synthesized.

B. 57.5% was the percent yield.

C. 7.80 grams of ethyl butyrate would be produced from 7.60 g of butanoic acid.

Explanation:

$CH_3CH_2CH_2CO_2H(l)+CH_2CH_3OH(l)+H^+\rightarrow CH_3CH_2CH_2CO_2CH_2CH_3(l)+H_2O(l)$

Moles of butanoic acid = $\frac{7.60 g}{88 g/mol}=0.08636 mol$

According to reaction ,1 mole of butanoic acid gives 1 mol of ethyl butyrate,then 0.08636 mol of butanoic acid will give :

$\frac{1}{1}\times 0.08636 mol=0.08636 mol$ of ethyl butyrate

Mass of 0.08636 moles of ethyl butyrate =

0.08636 mol × 116 g/mol = 10.0 g

Theoretical yield = 10.0 g

Experimental yield = ?

Percentage yield of the reaction = 100%

$Yield\%=\frac{\text{Experimental yield}}{\text{Theoretical yield}}\times 100$

$100\%=\frac{\text{Experimental yield}}{10.0 g}\times 100$

Experimental yield = 10.0 g

10.0 grams of ethyl butyrate would be synthesized.

Theoretical yield of ethyl butyrate = 10.0 g

Experimental yield ethyl butyrate = 5.75 g

Percentage yield of the reaction = ?

$Yield\%=\frac{\text{Experimental yield}}{\text{Theoretical yield}}\times 100$

$=\frac{5.75 g}{10.0 g}\times 100=57.5\%$

57.5% was the percent yield.

Moles of butanoic acid = $\frac{7.60 g}{88 g/mol}=0.08636 mol$

According to reaction ,1 mole of butanoic acid gives 1 mol of ethyl butyrate,then 0.08636 mol of butanoic acid will give :

$\frac{1}{1}\times 0.08636 mol=0.08636 mol$ of ethyl butyrate

Mass of 0.08636 moles of ethyl butyrate =

0.08636 mol × 116 g/mol = 10.0 g

Theoretical yield = 10.0 g

Experimental yield = ?

Percentage yield of the reaction = 78.0%

$Yield\%=\frac{\text{Experimental yield}}{\text{Theoretical yield}}\times 100$

$78.0\%=\frac{\text{Experimental yield}}{10.0 g}\times 100$

Experimental yield = 7.80 g

7.80 grams of ethyl butyrate would be produced from 7.60 g of butanoic acid.

Room temperature is approximately 20°C for scientific purposes. A hot pan on a stove can reach temperatures up to about 260°C. G

The melting points of sugar and salt are above 20°C.

<h3>What is melting point?</h3>

The melting points of substances refer to the temperature at which solid substances gain enough energy to become liquids.

The room temperature is approximately 20°C. At this temperature, sugar and salt are solids. This means that the melting temperature of both substances is above 20°C.

More specifically, sugar will melt around 180 °C while salt will melt at a temperature slightly above 800 °C.
