Answer is: a beaker contains heterogeneous mixture.

A heterogeneous mixture have compounds that remain separate in the sample.

Heterogeneous mixture is not uniform in composition (in this mixture different sand and small pebbles), but proportions of its components (in this mixture particles of different colors and size) vary throughout the sample.

A reaction was performed in which 3.6 g 3.6 g of benzoic acid was reacted with excess methanol to make 1.3 g 1.3 g of methyl ben

Anit [1.1K]

Answer: The percent yield of the reaction is 32.34 %

Explanation:

To calculate the number of moles, we use the equation:

$\text{Number of moles}=\frac{\text{Given mass}}{\text{Molar mass}}$ .....(1)

For benzoic acid:

Given mass of benzoic acid = 3.6 g

Molar mass of benzoic acid = 122.12 g/mol

Putting values in equation 1, we get:

$\text{Moles of benzoic acid}=\frac{3.6g}{122.12g/mol}=0.0295mol$

The chemical equation for the reaction of benzoic acid and methanol is:

$\text{Benzoic acid + methanol}\rightarrow \text{methyl benzoate}$

By Stoichiometry of the reaction

1 mole of benzoic acid produces 1 mole of methyl benzoate

So, 0.0295 moles of benzoic acid will produce = $\frac{1}{1}\times 0.0295=0.108$ moles of methyl benzoate

Now, calculating the mass of methyl benzoate from equation 1, we get:

Molar mass of methyl benzoate = 136.15 g/mol

Moles of methyl benzoate = 0.0295 moles

Putting values in equation 1, we get:

$0.0295mol=\frac{\text{Mass of methyl benzoate}}{136.15g/mol}\\\\\text{Mass of methyl benzoate}=(0.0295mol\times 136.15g/mol)=4.02g$

To calculate the percentage yield of methyl benzoate, we use the equation:

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

Experimental yield of methyl benzoate = 1.3 g

Theoretical yield of methyl benzoate = 4.02 g

Putting values in above equation, we get:

$\%\text{ yield of methyl benzoate}=\frac{1.3g}{4.02g}\times 100\\\\\% \text{yield of methyl benzoate}=32.34\%$

Hence, the percent yield of the reaction is 32.34 %

How does the arrangement of particles in a gas differ from the arrangements in liquids and solids?

Paladinen [302]

The arrangement of particles in a gas is random. they have no orderly arrangement and are free to move around while the particles in solid are in an orderly and rigid arrangement and cannot move about. particles in liquid are also arranged orderly but are not rigid

What is the limiting reactant when 19.9 g CuO react with 2.02 g H2?

Harlamova29_29 [7]

Answer:

Explanation:

use the equation

moles = mass/mr

=19.9/79.5

=0.250moles of CuO

then do the same for

H = 2.02/1

=2.02

so CuO is the limiting reagent because there is less amount of it.

Hope this helps :)
