Which statement is true if the Hrxn of a reaction is positive?

2 answers:

7 0

When the heat of reaction is positive, then the reaction is an endothermic reaction. It means that the heat is into the system. The reaction to occur heat should be supplied into the system. It is not a spontaneous reaction since the process absorbs energy to reach the activation energy.

How is the periodic table organized?

joja [24]

Answer:

The periodic table of elements arranges all of the known chemical elements in an informative array. Elements are arranged from left to right and top to bottom in order of increasing atomic number. Order generally coincides with increasing atomic mass. The rows are called periods.

Percentage Yield

scoundrel [369]

Q.No. 1:

You have 20.0 g of CaCO₃. You decompose it by heat, and weigh the calcium oxide that remains. You have 10.3 grams. What is the % yield?

Answer:

%age Yield = 92.37 %

Solution:

The balance chemical equation for given decomposition reaction is;

CaCO₃ → CaO + CO₂

Step 1: Calculate Moles of CaCO₃:

Moles = Mass / M.Mass

Moles = 20.0 g / 100.08 g/mol

Moles = 0.199 moles of CaCO₃

Step 2: Calculate theoretical amount of CaO produced;

According to equation,

1 moles of CaCO₃ produced = 1 mole of CaO

So,

0.199 moles of CaCO₃ will produce = X moles of CaO

Solving for X,

X = 0.199 mol × 1 mol / 1 mol

X = 0.199 mol of CaO

Also,

Mass = Moles × M.Mass

Mass = 0.199 mol × 56.07 g/mol

Mass = 11.15 g of CaO

Step 3: Calculate %age Yield as;

%age Yield = Actual Yield / Theoretical Yield × 100

%age Yield = 10.3 g / 11.15 g × 100

%age Yield = 92.37 %

Q.No. 2:

A student makes sodium chloride by buming 2.3 grams of sodium in chlorine gas. If the yield is 90%, how much sodium chloride is made?

Answer:

Actual Yield = 5.785 g of NaCl

Solution:

The balance chemical equation for given decomposition reaction is;

2 Na + Cl₂ → 2 NaCl

Step 1: Calculate Moles of Na:

Moles = Mass / M.Mass

Moles = 2.3 g / 23 g/mol

Moles = 0.10 moles of Na

Step 2: Calculate theoretical amount of NaCl produced;

According to equation,

2 moles of Na produced = 2 moles of NaCl

So,

0.10 moles of Na will produce = X moles of NaCl

Solving for X,

X = 0.10 mol × 2 mol / 2 mol

X = 0.10 mol of NaCl

Also,

Mass = Moles × M.Mass

Mass = 0.10 mol × 58.44 g/mol

Mass = 5.844 g of NaCl

Step 3: Calculate Actual Yield as;

%age Yield = Actual Yield / Theoretical Yield × 100

Or,

Actual Yield = %age Yield × Theoretical Yield ÷ 100

Actual Yield = 99 × 5.844 g ÷ 100

Actual Yield = 5.785 g of NaCl

Q.No. 3:

For the chemical reaction Mg(s) + 2 HCl (aq) → H₂ (g) + MgCl₂ (aq) calculate the % yield if 100 grams of magnesium react with excess HCl to produce 310 grams of MgCl₂.

Answer:

%age Yield = 79.13 %

Solution:

The balance chemical equation for given decomposition reaction is;

Mg + 2 HCl → MgCl₂ + H₂

Step 1: Calculate Moles of Mg:

Moles = Mass / M.Mass

Moles = 100 g / 24.30 g/mol

Moles = 4.11 moles of Mg

Step 2: Calculate theoretical amount of MgCl₂ produced;

According to equation,

1 mole of Mg produced = 1 mole of MgCl₂

So,

4.11 moles of Mg will produce = X moles of MgCl₂

Solving for X,

X = 4.11 mol × 1 mol / 1 mol

X = 4.11 mol of MgCl₂

Also,

Mass = Moles × M.Mass

Mass = 4.11 mol × 95.21 g/mol

Mass = 391.73 g of MgCl₂

Step 3: Calculate %age Yield as;

%age Yield = Actual Yield / Theoretical Yield × 100

%age Yield = 310.0 g / 391.73 g × 100

%age Yield = 79.13 %
