The reaction of Phosphorous Pentaoxide with water yield Phosphoric Acid as shown below,

P₄O₁₀ + 6 H₂O → 4 H₃PO₄

According to balance equation,

283.88 g (1 mole) P₄O₁₀ requires = 108 g (6 mole) of H₂O
So,
100 g P₄O₁₀ will require = X g of H₂O

Solving for X,

X = (100 g × 108 g) ÷ 283.88 g

X = 38.04 g of H₂O

So, 100 g P₄O₁₀ requires 38.04 g of H₂O, while we are provided with 200 g of H₂O which means that water is in excess and P₄O₁₀ is limiting reagent. Therefore, P₄O₁₀ will control the yield of H₃PO₄. So,
As,
283.88 g (1 mole) P₄O₁₀ produced = 391.96 g (4 mole) of H₃PO₄
So,
100 g P₄O₁₀ will produce = X g of H₃PO₄

Solving for X,
X = (100 g × 391.96 g) ÷ 283.88 g

X = 138.07 g of H₃PO₄

Result:
Theoretical Yield of this reaction is 138.07 g.

The boiling point of water is 1000C.

sergejj [24]

Answer:

a) The heat which we supply to water during boiling is used to overcome these forces of attraction between the particles so that they become totally free and change into a gas. This latent heat does not increase the kinetic energy of water particles and hence no rise in temperature takes place during the boiling of water.

b) Steam produces more severe burns than boiling water even though both are at 100oC because steam contains more heat, in the form of latent heat, than boiling water.

During an experiment, 95 grams of calcium carbonate reacted with an excess amount of hydrochloric acid. If the percent yield of

almond37 [142]

Answer:

Actual yield: 86.5 grams.

Explanation:

How many moles of formula units in 95 grams of calcium carbonate $\rm CaCO_3$ ?

Refer to a modern periodic table for relative atomic mass data:

Ca: 40.078;
C: 12.011;
O: 15.999.

Formula mass of $\rm CaCO_3$ :

$M(\mathrm{CaCO_3}) = \underbrace{1\times 40.078}_{\rm Ca} + \underbrace{1\times 12.011}_{\rm C} + \underbrace{3\times 15.999}_{\rm O} = \rm 100.086\;g\cdot mol^{-1}$ .

$\displaystyle n(\mathrm{CaCO_3}) = \frac{m(\mathrm{CaCO_3})}{M(\mathrm{CaCO_3})} = \rm \frac{95\;g}{100.086\;g\cdot mol^{-1}} = 0.949184\;mol$ .

How many moles of $\rm CaCl_2$ will be produced?

The coefficient in front of $\rm CaCO_3$ in the chemical equation is the same as that in front of $\rm CaCl_2$ . That is:

$\displaystyle \frac{n(\rm CaCl_2)}{n(\rm CaCO_3)} = 1$ .

$\displaystyle n(\mathrm{CaCl_2}) = n(\mathrm{CaCO_3})\cdot \frac{n(\rm CaCl_2)}{n(\rm CaCO_3)} = n(\mathrm{CaCO_3}) = \rm 0.949184\;mol$ .

What's the theoretical yield of calcium chloride? In other words, what's the mass of $\rm 0.949184\;mol$ of $\rm CaCl_2$ ?

Again, refer to a periodic table for relative atomic data:

Ca: 40.078;
Cl: 35.45.

$M(\mathrm{CaCl_2}) = \underbrace{1\times 40.078}_{\rm Ca} + \underbrace{2\times 35.45}_{\rm Cl} = \rm 110.978\;g\cdot mol^{-1}$ .

$\begin{aligned}m(\mathrm{CaCl_2}) &= n(\mathrm{CaCl_2})\cdot M(\mathrm{CaCl_2})\\ &= \rm 0.949184\;mol\times 110.978\;g\cdot mol^{-1}\\ &= \rm 105.339\; g\end{aligned}$ .

What's the actual yield of calcium chloride?

$\displaystyle \text{Percentage Yield} = \frac{\text{Actual Yield}}{\text{Theoretical Yield}}\times 100\%$ .

$\displaystyle \begin{aligned}\text{Actual Yield} &= \text{Theoretical Yield}\cdot \frac{\text{Percentage Yield}}{100\%}\\ &=\rm 105.339\; g \times \frac{82.15\%}{100\%}\\&= \rm 86.5\;g \end{aligned}$ .
