Answer:
Alkenes of the type R–CH=CH–R can exist as cis and trans isomers;
Boyle's law gives the relationship between pressure and volume of gas.
for a fixed amount of gas, at constant temperature the pressure of gas is inversely proportional to its volume.
PV = k
where P - pressure, V - volume and k - constant
P1V1 = P2V2
where parameters for the first instance are on the left side and parameters for the second instance are on the right side.
substituting the values in the equation
1.2 atm x 1.0 L = P x 4.0 L
P = 0.3 atm
new pressure is 0.3 atm
Answer:
Explanation:
<u>1) Balanced chemical equation:</u>
<u>2) Mole ratio:</u>
- 2 mol S : 3 mol O₂ : 2 mol SO₃
<u>3) Limiting reactant:</u>
n = 6.0 g / 32.0 g/mol = 0.1875 mol O₂
n = 7.0 g / 32.065 g/mol = 0.2183 mol S
Actual ratio: 0.1875 mol O₂ / 0.2183 mol S =0.859
Theoretical ratio: 3 mol O₂ / 2 mol S = 1.5
Since there is a smaller proportion of O₂ (0.859) than the theoretical ratio (1.5), O₂ will be used before all S be consumed, and O₂ is the limiting reactant.
<u>4) Calcuate theoretical yield (using the limiting reactant):</u>
- 0.1875 mol O₂ / x = 3 mol O₂ / 2 mol SO₃
- x = 0.1875 × 2 / 3 mol SO₃ = 0.125 mol SO₃
<u>5) Yield in grams:</u>
- mass = number of moles × molar mass = 0.125 mol × 80.06 g/mol = 10.0 g
<u>6) </u><em><u>Percent yield:</u></em>
- Percent yield, % = (actual yield / theoretical yield) × 100
- % = (7.9 g / 10.0 g) × 100 = 79%
