A student reacted NiS2 (MM = 122.83 g/mol) with O2 (MM=32.00 g/mol) to make SO2 (MM=64.07 g/mol) according to this balanced equa

tion
2NiS2+5O2=2NiO+4SO2
If (1.50x10^2) g of NiS2 were reacted with (2.420x10^2) g of O2 what would be the theoretical yield of SO2

Answer:

Theoretical yield of SO₂ is 1.56 × 10² g

Explanation:

Given data:

Mass of NiS₂ = 1.50 ×10² g

Mass of O₂ = 2.420 ×10² g

Theoretical yield of SO₂ = ?

Solution:

Chemical equation:

2NiS₂ + 5O₂ → 2NiO + 4SO₂

Moles of NiS₂:

Number of moles = mass/ molar mass

Number of moles = 1.50 ×10² g / 122.83 g/mol

Number of moles = 1.22 mol

Moles of O₂:

Number of moles = mass/ molar mass

Number of moles = 2.420 ×10² g / 32 g/mol

Number of moles = 7.56 mol

Now we compare the moles of SO₂ with  NiS₂ and O₂.

                  NiS₂            :      SO₂

                    2                :        4

                   1.22             :       4/2×1.22 = 2.44

                    O₂               :          SO₂

                     5                :           4

                     7.56           :           4/5×7.56 =6.05

Moles of SO₂ produced by NiS₂ are less it will limiting reactant.

Mass of SO₂ = moles × molar mass

Mass of SO₂ = 2.44 mol ×  64.07 g/mol

Mass of SO₂ = 156.33 g

So theoretical yield of SO₂ is 1.56 × 10² g

PLEASE HELP ME ASAPPPP

Boyle’s law gives the relationship between pressure and volume of gases. It states that at constant temperature the pressure of gas is inversely proportional to volume of gas.
PV = k
Where P is pressure V is volume and k is constant
P1V1 = P2V2
Parameters at STP are on the left side and parameters for the second instance are on the right side of the equation
P1 - standard pressure - 1.0 atm
Substituting the values in the equation
1.0 atm x 5.00 L = P x 15.0 L
P = 0.33 atm
New pressure is 0.33 atm

Hybridization of NH3​
nadya68 [22]

Answer:

Sp3 hybridization

Explanation:

The NH3 molecule, which consists of one lone pairs and three bond pair of electron on its valance shell due to lone pair bond pair repulsion makes bond angle of 107.5°resulting distorted tetrahedral geometry.

Hybridization =no. of bond pair +lone pair=3+1=4=sp3 hybridization
