One way of obtaining pure sodium carbonate is through the decomposition of the mineral trona, Na3(CO3)(HCO3)·2H2O. 2Na3(CO3)(HC
Leviafan [203]

Answer:

a. 92.4%

Explanation:

Based on the reaction:

2Na₃(CO₃)(HCO₃)·2H₂O(s) → 3Na₂CO₃(s) + CO₂(g) + 5H₂O(g)

To obtain the percent yield you need to obtain moles of trona and calculate thoeretical moles of Na₂CO₃, and the ratio of obtained moles / theoretical moles of Na₂CO₃ give percent yield, thus:

Moles of trona:

1.00 metric ton × (1x10³kg / 1 metric ton) × ( 1000moles /226.03 kg) = <em>4424 moles</em>

The theoretical moles of Na₂CO₃ that produce 4424 moles of trona are (Based on the reaction, 2 moles of trona produce 3 moles of Na₂CO₃):

4424 moles trona × (3 moles Na₂CO₃ / 2 moles trona) = <em>6636 moles of Na₂CO₃.</em>

The obtained moles of Na₂CO₃:

0.650 metric ton × (1x10³kg / 1 metric ton) × (1000 moles / 105.99kg) = <em>6133 moles</em>

The ratio of obtained moles / theoretical moles gives:

6133 moles / 6636 moles = 0.924 = <em>92.4%</em>

I hope it helps!

Reaction 1: Solid sodium hydroxide dissolves in water to form an aqueous solution of ions. ????????????H(????) → ????????+(?????
Dennis_Churaev [7]
Hi, here is a basic summary of what we did in a lab; there were 3 reactions: The procedure: Reaction 1: Solid sodium hydroxide dissolves in water to form an aqueous solution of ions. NaOH(s)-> Na+(aq) + OH-(aq) ΔH1=-34.121kJ Reaction 2: Solid sodium hydroxide reacts with an aqueous solution of HCl to form water and an aqueous solution of sodium chloride. NaOH(s) + H+(aq) + Cl-(aq) -> H2O + Na+(aq) + Cl-(aq) ΔH2=-83.602kJ Reaction 3: An aqueous solution of sodium hydroxide reacts with an aqueous solution of HCl to form water an an aqueous solution of sodium chloride. H+(aq) + OH-(aq) + Na+(aq) + Cl-(aq) -> H2O + Na+(aq) + Cl-(aq) ΔH3= -50.2kJ The ΔH values were calculated by dividing the heat gained by the number of moles (each reaction had 0.05moles of NaOH) The problem: Net ionic equations for reaction 2 & 3: 2: NaOH(s) + H+(aq) -> H2O + Na+(aq) 3: H+(aq) + OH-(aq) -> H2O i) In reaction 1, ΔH1 represents the heat evolved as solid NaOH dissolves. Look at the net ionic equations for reactions 2 and 3 and make similar statements as to what ΔH2 and ΔH3 represent. ii) Compare ΔH2 with (ΔH1 + ΔH3). Explain in sentences the similarity between these two values by using your answer to #5 above. Attempt at answering: i) Firstly, ΔH2 represents the heat evolved as the hydrogen ion displaces the sodium ion, creating a single displacement reaction. ΔH3 represents the heat evolved as the hydrogen and hydroxide ion form water via a neutralization reaction. ii) ΔH2 is equal to (or supposed to be, this is a source of error while calculating) (ΔH1 + ΔH3). The similarity between these two values is that .. (this is where I get confused!)
