Aluminum hydroxide is often present in antacids to neutralize stomach acid (HCl). If 14.0 g aluminum hydroxide is present in an

antacid tablet, determine the theoretical yield of aluminum chloride produced when the tablet reacts with stomach acid. If the actual yield of the aluminum chloride from this tablet is 22.0 g, what is the percent yield?

Answer:

Percent Yield = 91.97%

Explanation:

Aluminum hydroxide Formula: Al(OH)3 Molar mass: 78 g/mol

Stomach acid Formula: HCl Molar mass: 36.46 g/mol

Aluminum Chloride Formula: AlCl₃ Molar mass: 133.34 g/mol

14g Al(OH)3

2Al(OH)3 + Cl2 → 2Al(OH)3Cl

Balanced equation

14/156 = 0.0897 Moles of Al(OH)3

Ratio is 2:1:2 so same ratio for Al(OH)3 to AlCl₃

0.0897 x 266.68 = 23.92grams of AlCl₃

Theoretical yield of aluminum chloride

Actual yield aluminum chloride 22.0 g

Percent yield?

Percent Yield = (actual Yield/Theoretical yield) x 100

Percent Yield = (22/23.92) x 100

Percent Yield = 91.97%

A beaker contains 578 mL of water. Convert to quarts
Lapatulllka [165]
0.578 mL = 0.611 US qt = 0.509 Imp qt

Do you mean US quarts or Imperial quarts?

578 mL × \frac{1 L}{1000 mL} = 0.578 L

US quarts

0.578 L × \frac{1.057 qt}{1 L} = 0.611 qt

Imperial quarts

0.578 L × \frac{0.880 qt}{1 L} = 0.509 qt

30 mL of 0.25 M acetic acid are titrated with 0.05 M KOH. What is the pH after addition of 75 mL KOH? Group of answer choices
hjlf

Answer:

The PH of the mixture is 4.74

Explanation:

The number of millimoles of acetic acid is calculated using the formula:

No of millimoles= Molarity * Volume( in ml)

= 0.25M * 30ml = 7.5 moles

Number of millimoles of KOH is calculated using:

Number of millimoles = Molarity * Volume ( in ml)

=0.05M * 75ml

= 3.75 moles

The PH of the solution is derived using:

pH = pKa + log [salt] / acid

= -log [ 1.8 * 10^5 ] + log [ 3.75 mmoles/ 3.75 mmoles]

=4.74

Urea is a product of digestion of proteins and other foods that contain nitrogen. It can react with water and acid to form ammon
irina [24]

Answer:

The urease will not catalyze any reaction.

Explanation:

The hydrolysis reaction of urea is:

(NH₂)₂CO + 2 H₂O + H⁺ ⇒ 2 NH₄⁺ + HCO₃⁻

Urease is an enzyme that catalyzes the urea hydrolysis reaction. Enzymes are very specific referring to the substrates they catalyze. If the solution does not contain urea, the urease will not bind to any of the substances in the solution, so it will not catalyze any reaction in the solution.
