Spread out the iron fillings
then since iron is magnetic use a magnet to extract the iron fillings from the sand. if you want to separate the salt from the sand you add water to the sand mix it for a while and the salt will dissolve <span />

The compound sodium thiosulfate pentahydrate, Na2S2O3 • 5H2O

Mnenie [13.5K]

The theoretical yield is 204.4 g while the percent yield is 2.57%.

<h3>What is theoretical yield?</h3>

Theoretical yield is the amount of product obtained based on the stoichiometry of the reaction.

S8(s) + 8 Na2SO3(aq) + 40 H2O(l) --->8 Na2S2O3·5 H2O(s)

Number of moles of sulfur = 3.25 g /8(32) = 0.013 moles

Number of moles of sodium sulfite = 13.1 g/126 g/mol = 0.103 moles

Since 1 moles of sulfur reacts with 8 moles of sodium sulfite

0.013 moles reacts with 0.013 moles × 8 moles /1 mole = 0.104 moles

There is not enough sodium sulfite hence it is the limiting reactant.

1 mole of sodium sulfite yields 8 moles of product

0.103 moles of sodium sulfite yields 0.103 moles × 8 moles /1 mole = 0.824 moles

Mass of product = 0.824 moles × 248 g/mol = 204.4 g

percent yield = 5.26 g /204.4 g × 100/1

= 2.57%

Who much the velocity of a body when it travels 600m in 5 min

Gwar [14]

Answer:

2 m/s

Explanation:

Applying the formulae of velocity,

V = d/t............. Equation 1

Where V = Velocity of the body, d = distance, t = time

From the question,

Given: d = 600 m, t = 5 minutes = (5×60) = 300 seconds.

Substitute these values into equation 1

V = 600/300

V = 2 m/s.

Hence the velocity of the body when it travels is 2 m/s

You have two compounds that you have spotted on the TLC plate. One compound is more polar than the other. You ran the TLC plate

goldenfox [79]

Answer:

we will except an increase in the polarity of the system and this will cause the Non-polar spot to be near the solvent front, while the polar spot will run at an approximate speed of 0.5 Rf

Explanation:

when we run a TLC plate in a 50/50 mixture of hexanes and ethyl acetate we will except an increase in the polarity of the system and this will cause the Non-polar spot to be near the solvent front, while the polar spot will run at an approximate speed of 0.5 Rf

The speed of the polar spot depends largely on the level of polarity, an increase in the polarity will see both spots of Neat hexane run when we run a TLC plate in a 50/50 mixture of hexanes and ethyl acetate

A ball of mass 0.2 kg is dropped from a height of 10 m. How much mechanical energy does it have right before it hits the ground?

lana [24]

Answer:

19.6 J

Step-by-step explanation:

Before the ball is dropped, it has a <em>potential energy </em>

PE = mgh

PE = 0.2 × 10 × 9.8

PE = 19.6 J

Just before the ball hits the ground, the potential energy has been converted into kinetic (<em>mechanical</em>) energy.

KE = 19.6 J
