 <span>You must balance your equation correctly.
Here is your answer: 

294gFeS2 x 1molFeS2/119.99 x 11mols O2/4mols FeS2--> 6.738mol O2 

176gO2 x 1mol O2/32gO2 x 4mols FeS2/11mol FeS2--> 2mols FeS2 
Now choose the molecule with the lowest amount (Limiting Reagent) 

2molsFeS2 x 2molsFe2O3/4molsFeS2 x 159.7g
159.7g Fe2O3 grams produced.</span>

Answer:

Amount of Fe2O3 produced is 197 g

Explanation:

Step 1: Deduce the limiting reactant

Mass of FeS2 = 294 g

Molar Mass of FeS2 = 120 g/mol

Moles\ FeS2 = \frac{Mass}{Molar Mass} =\frac{294}{120} =2.45 moles

Mass of O2 = 176 g

Molar mass of O2 = 32 g/mol

Moles\ O2 = \frac{Mass}{Molar Mass} =\frac{176}{32} =5.5 moles

Since moles of FeS2 < O2, then FeS2 is the limiting reactant which will dictate the amount of product formed

Step 2: Calculate the mass of Fe2O3 produced

The balanced equation is:

4FeS2 + 11O2 → 2Fe2O3 + 8SO2

Based on the reaction stoichiometry:

4 moles of FeS2 produced 2 moles of Fe2O3

Therefore, 2.45 moles of FeS2 will produce 1.23 moles Fe2O3

Molar mass of Fe2O3 = 160 g/mol

Mass\ of\ Fe2O3 = moles * molar\ mass = 1.23 * 160 = 196.8 g

A reaction was suppose to produce 20 L of gas. Only 12 litters of gas were produced in the lab. What is the percent yield for th
pogonyaev

Answer:

\boxed {\boxed {\sf 60 \%}}

Explanation:

Percent yield is a ratio of the actual yield to the theoretical yield. It is found using this formula:

\% \ yield= \frac {actual \ yield}{theoretical \  yield} *100

The actual yield is 12 liters, because that was actually produced in the lab.

The theoretical yield is 20 liters, because that was the expected yield.

\% \ yield= \frac {12 \ L}{20\ L} *100

\% \ yield= 0.6*100

\% \ yield= 60

For this reaction, the percent yield is 60%.

Assume that instead of Taq polymerase, another polymerase, one that is very heat-sensitive, was used in a PCR. What differences
frez [133]

Answer:

Taq polymerase is a thermostable which states that it can even work at higher temperature. The main function of using this enzyme is that it is used to amplify the DNA which will help in producing ample amount of DNA sample.

The enzyme activity is temperature dependent. The denaturation and annealing steps of the PCR occurs at very high temperature.

Any other enzyme used at such an high temperature would have decreased the enzyme activity and the procedure would not be completed.

Which nuclear decay emission has the weakest penetrating power?
Romashka [77]
Alpha particle is the nuclear decay emission that has the weakest penetrating power. The correct option among all the options that are given in the question is the first option or option "1". Gamma is a type of radiation and so can be negated as a particle. Alpha particles have the largest radiation and so the weakest penetrating power.
