How can scientists use stoichiometry to ensure that commercial products contain the components that manufacturers claim they do?

Rina8888 [55]

Answer:

I know you have been waiting awhile for this question to be answered :)

Stoichiometry is used in industry quite often to determine the amount of materials required to produce the desired amount of products in a given useful equation. Each one of these products requires stoichiometry. There would be no products from these industries without chemical stoichiometry.

Explanation:

Hopefully this helps :D

Sorry you had to wait so long :(

A fish is removed from a contaminated lake. You determine that a particular toxin (X) is present in its cells at concentration X

netineya [11]

The level of toxins in the fish's cell is equivalent to the level of toxins in the water. Therefore, in order to reduce the toxins further, we should replace the now contaminated water with clean water. After the level of toxins in the fish's cell stops reducing, we replace the water with clean water once again.

How many grams of copper (II) hydroxide can be prepared from 2.4 grams of copper (II) nitrate (Cu(NO3)2 ) and excess sodium hydr

andreyandreev [35.5K]

Answer:

percentage yield = 67%

Explanation:

Mass of Cu(NO₃)₂ = 15.25 g

Mass of NaOH = 12.75 g

Percentage yield = ?

Solution:

Cu(NO₃)₂ + 2NaOH → Cu(OH)₂ + 2NaNO₃

Moles of Cu(NO₃)₂:

Number of moles = mass/ molar mass

Number of moles = 15.25 g /187.56 g/mol

Number of moles = 0.08 mol

Moles of NaOH :

Number of moles = mass/ molar mass

Number of moles = 12.75 g / 40 g/mol

Number of moles = 0.32 mol

Now we will compare the moles of Cu(OH)₂ with NaOH and Cu(NO₃)₂. NaOH : Cu(OH)₂

2 : 1

0.32 : 1/2×0.32 = 0.16 mol

Cu(NO₃)₂ : Cu(OH)₂

1 : 1

0.08 : 0.08

The number of moles produced by Cu(NO₃)₂ are less so it will limiting reactant.

Mass of Cu(OH)₂:

Mass = number of moles × molar mass

Mass = 0.08 mol × 97.6 g/mol

Mass = 7.808 g

Theoretical yield = 7.808 g

Percent yield:

percentage yield = Actual yield/ theoretical yield × 100

percentage yield = 5.23 g/ 7.808 g × 100

percentage yield = 0.67 × 100

percentage yield = 67%

How many km are in 5.6mm? 5.6x103 5.6x10-6 5.6x10-3 5.6x106

il63 [147K]

Hey there :)

Question: How many km are in 5.6mm?

=>5.6x10^3

=>5.6x10^-6

=>5.6x10^-3

=> 5.6x10^6

Answer:-

$5.6 \times 10^{ - 6}$

Explanation:-

By using the formula-

$1millimeter = \frac{1}{1000000}$

As 1 with 6 zeros, we convert it into exponential form.

$= > \frac{1}{10^{6} }$

As this above value is fraction type, we can do the reciprocal, thus, the exponent gets a negative value.

$= > 10^{ - 6}$

Now combine with given question.

$= > 5.6 \times 10^{ - 6}$
