Answer:

54.6%

Explanation:

Percentage composition of carbon in compound

= ( mass of carbon in compound / total mass of compound ) x100

= ( 98.28 / 98.28 + 16.21 + 65.52 ) x 100

= (98.28 / 180.01 ) x 100

= 54.6% (3sf)

Chromium is dissolved in sulfuric acid according to the following equation: Cr + H2SO4 ⇒ Cr2 (SO4) 3 + H2
Usimov [2.4K]

Answer:

\large \boxed{\text{a)188.4 g; b) 98.67 $\, \%$}}

Explanation:

We will need a balanced chemical equation with masses and molar masses, so, let's gather all the information in one place.

Mᵣ:                      98.08           392.18

             2Cr + 3H₂SO₄ ⟶ Cr₂(SO₄)₃ + 3H₂

To solve the stoichiometry problem, you must

  • Use the molar mass of H₂SO₄ to convert  the mass of H₂SO₄ to moles of H₂SO₄
  • Use the molar ratio to convert moles of H₂SO₄ to moles of Cr₂(SO₄)₃
  • Use the molar mass of Cr₂(SO₄)₃ to convert moles of Cr₂(SO₄)₃ to mass of Cr₂(SO₄)₃

a) Mass of Cr₂(SO₄)₃

(i) Mass of pure H₂SO₄

\text{Mass of pure} = \text{165 g impure} \times \dfrac{\text{85.67 g pure} }{\text{100 g impure}} = \text{141.36 g pure}

(ii) Moles of H₂SO₄

\text{Moles of H$_{2}$SO}_{4} = \text{141.36 g H$_{2}$SO}_{4} \times \dfrac{\text{1 mol H$_{2}$SO}_{4}}{\text{98.08 g H$_{2}$SO}_{4}} = \text{1.441 mol H$_{2}$SO}_{4}

(iii) Moles of Cr₂(SO₄)₃

The molar ratio is 1 mol Cr₂(SO₄)₃:3 mol H₂SO₄ \text{Moles of Cr$_{2}$(SO$_{4}$)}_{3} = \text{1.441 mol H$_{2}$SO}_{4} \times \dfrac{\text{1 mol Cr$_{2}$(SO$_{4}$)}_{3}}{\text{3 mol H$_{2}$SO}_{4}} = \text{0.4804 mol Cr$_{2}$(SO$_{4}$)}_{3}

(iv) Mass of Cr₂(SO₄)₃ \text{Mass of Cr$_{2}$(SO$_{4}$)}_{3} = \text{0.4804 mol Cr$_{2}$(SO$_{4}$)}_{3} \times \dfrac{\text{392.18 g Cr$_{2}$(SO$_{4}$)}_{3}}{\text{1 mol Cr$_{2}$(SO$_{4}$)}_{3}} = \textbf{188.4 g Cr$_{2}$(SO$_{4}$)}_{3}\\\text{The mass of Cr$_{2}$(SO$_{4}$)$_{3}$ formed is $\large \boxed{\textbf{188.4 g}}$}

b) Percentage yield

It is impossible to get a yield of 485.9 g. I will assume you meant 185.9 g.

\text{Percentage yield} = \dfrac{\text{Actual yield}}{\text{Theoretical yield}} \times 100 \, \% = \dfrac{\text{185.9 g}}{\text{188.4 g}} \times 100 \, \% = \mathbf{98.67 \, \%}\\\\\text{The percentage yield is $\large \boxed{\mathbf{98.67 \, \%}}$}

Every day a 6th grade class puts candy into bags to prepare for Valentine's Day. They put
Amiraneli [1.4K]
70 bags is the answer.
They add “They put 7 pieces of candy in each bag to throw you off”
To find the answer just divide 28 bags by 4 days to get how many bags they make in 1 day. Take that number “7” and multiply it by 10 days. The answer is then 70.

Name all of the alkene isomers, c6h12, that contain a methylene group.
Romashka [77]

Actually, a methylene group is simply any compound which contains a C=C double bond group and the rest are single bonded carbon groups. Some example of the isomers of C6H12 which contains methylene group is:

1-hexene

2,3-dimethyl-2-butene

2,3-dimethyl-1-butene

2-methyl-2-pentene

trans-2-hexene

4-methyl-1-pentene

cis-2-hexene

trans-3-hexene

2-ethyl-1-butene

2-methyl-1-pentene

3,3-dimethyl-1-butene

4-methyl-cis-2-pentene

cis-3-methyl-2-pentene

trans-3-methyl-2-pentene
