Carbon tetrachloride, CCl₄, is a solvent that was once used in large quantities in dry cleaning. Because it is a dense liquid th

at does not burn, it was also used in fire extinguishers. Unfortunately, its use was discontinued because it was found to be a carcinogen. It was manufactured by the following reaction:
CS_2+3Cl_2 \longrightarrow CCl_4+S_2Cl_2
The reaction was economical because the byproduct disulfur dichloride, S₂Cl₂, could be used by industry in the manufacture of rubber products and other materials.
a. What is the percentage yield of CCl₄i if 719 kg is produced from the reaction of 410. kg of CS₂?
b. If 67.5 g of Cl₂ are used in the reaction and 39.5 g of S₂Cl₂ is produced, what is the percentage yield?
c. If the percentage yield of the industrial process is 83.3%, how many kilograms of CS₂ should be reacted to obtain 5.00 × 10⁴ kg of CCl₄? How many kilograms of S₂Cl₂ will be produced, assuming the same yield for that product?

Answer:

The answers to the question are

a. Percentage yield  = 86.804 %

b. Percentage yield =92.2 %

c. 3.09×10⁶ kg of CS₂ should be reacted to obtain 5.00 × 10⁴ kg of CCl₄ at 83.3 % yield

c. (i) 4.39×10⁶ kg of S₂Cl₂ will be produced alongside at 83.3 %yield

Explanation:

a.To solve the question, we note that in the chemical reaction

1 mole of CS₂ reacts with 3 moles of Cl₂ to produce 1 mole of CCl₄ and 1 mole of S₂Cl₂

Mass of CCl₄ produced = 719 kg (Actual yield)

Mass of CS₂ in the reaction = 410 kg

Molar mass of CCl₄ = 153.82 g/mol,

Number of moles of CCl₄ =\frac{Mass}{Molar mass} = 719/153.82 = 4.674 moles

Molar mass of CS₂ = 76.139 g/mol

Number of moles of CS₂ =\frac{Mass}{Molar mass} = 410/76.139 = 5.385 moles

Therefore theoretical yield of CCl₄= 5.385 moles×153.82 g/mol

= 828.303 kg

Percentage yield = \frac{Actual Yield}{Theoretical Yield} *100 → \frac{719}{828.303} *100 = 86.804 %

b. Mass of the Cl₂ used in the reaction = 67.5 g

Mass of S₂Cl₂ produced =39.5 g (Actual yield)

Molar mass of Cl₂ = 70.906 g/mol

Number of moles of Cl₂ =67.5/70.906 = 0.952 moles

Molar mass of S₂Cl₂ = 135.04 g/mol

Number of moles of S₂Cl₂ =39.5/135.04 = 0.293 moles

However here  3 moles of  Cl₂ produces 1 mole of S₂Cl₂, therefore 0.952 moles of Cl₂ will produce 0.952/3 or 0.317 moles of S₂Cl₂

Therefore actual yield = 0.317 moles ×135.04 g/mol = 42.851 g

Percentage yield = 39.5/42.851×100 =92.2 %

c. To produce 5.00 × 10⁴ kg at 83.3 % yield

We have Percentage yield =   \frac{Actual Yield}{Theoretical Yield} *100, we have

Theoretical yield =  \frac{Actual Yield}{Percentage Yield} *100 = \frac{500*10^4}{83.3} *100 = 600.24 × 10⁴ kg

Number of moles of CCl₄ in 600.24 × 10⁴ kg of CCl₄ is given as

600.24 × 10⁷ g/153.82 g/mol, = 39022240.023 moles

Since 1 mole of CS₂ is required to produce 1 mole of CCl₄. then 39022240.023 moles of CS₂ is required to produce 39022240.023 moles of CCl₄ theoretically

mass of required CS₂ = Number of moles ×Molar mass of CS₂ = 39022240.023 moles  × 76.139 g/mol = 3088181053.204 = 3.09×10⁶ kg

Therefore 3.09×10⁶ kg should be reacted to obtain 5.00 × 10⁴ kg of CCl₄

Mass of 39022240.023 moles of  S₂Cl₂ is given by

39022240.023 moles × 135.04 g/mol = 5269563292.7466 g  which at 83.3 % yield gives 0.833 ×5269563292.7466 g = 4389546222.8579 g

= 4389546.2228579 kg = 4.39×10⁶ kg of S₂Cl₂

Separating techniques - Chromatography

The method that can be used to separate the mixture is chromatography.

<h3>What is chromatography?</h3>

"Chromatography" is obtained form a Greek word which literarily means, color writing. It is a method of separation which is common in separating a mixture of pigments.

To obtain the colors used, two solvents are mixed and the sample ink is dissolved in the solvents then spotted on a thin layer and put into a TLC chamber then the chromatogram is allowed to develop.

The various components of the pigment will appear on the chromatogram and can be identified using spectrophotometry. The Rf values of each component can also be used to identify it.'

How many uL are present in 250 mL of H20? (1 uL = 10^-6 Liters)​
Vanyuwa [196]

Answer:

250000 μL

Explanation:

If         1 L = 1000 mL

Then  X L = 250 mL

X = (1 × 250) / 1000 = 0.25 L

Now we can calculate the number of microliters (μL) in 0.25 L:

if        1 μL = 10⁻⁶ L

then   X μL = 0.25 L

X = (1 × 0.25) / 10⁻⁶  =250000 μL
