There are billions if not trillions of salt atoms. Atoms are the smallest things. They are smaller than molecules. You can't see them with your naked eye. Hope this helps! ;)

A student reacts 5.0 g of sodium with 10.0 g of chlorine and collect 5.24 g of sodium chloride. What is the percent yield of thi

Ede4ka [16]

Answer: The percent yield of this combination reaction is 41.3 %

Explanation : Given,

Mass of $Na$ = 5.0 g

Mass of $Cl_2$ = 10.0 g

Molar mass of $Na$ = 23 g/mol

Molar mass of $Cl_2$ = 71 g/mol

First we have to calculate the moles of $Na$ and $Cl_2$ .

$\text{Moles of }Na=\frac{\text{Given mass }Na}{\text{Molar mass }Na}$

$\text{Moles of }Na=\frac{5.0g}{23g/mol}=0.217mol$

and,

$\text{Moles of }Cl_2=\frac{\text{Given mass }Cl_2}{\text{Molar mass }Cl_2}$

$\text{Moles of }Cl_2=\frac{10.0g}{71g/mol}=0.141mol$

Now we have to calculate the limiting and excess reagent.

The balanced chemical equation will be:

$2Na+Cl_2\rightarrow 2NaCl$

From the balanced reaction we conclude that

As, 2 mole of $Na$ react with 1 mole of $Cl_2$

So, 0.217 moles of $Na$ react with $\frac{0.217}{2}=0.108$ moles of $Cl_2$

From this we conclude that, $Cl_2$ is an excess reagent because the given moles are greater than the required moles and $Na$ is a limiting reagent and it limits the formation of product.

Now we have to calculate the moles of $NaCl$

From the reaction, we conclude that

As, 2 mole of $Na$ react to give 2 mole of $NaCl$

So, 0.217 mole of $HCl$ react to give 0.217 mole of $NaCl$

Now we have to calculate the mass of $NaCl$

$\text{ Mass of }NaCl=\text{ Moles of }NaCl\times \text{ Molar mass of }NaCl$

Molar mass of $NaCl$ = 58.5 g/mole

$\text{ Mass of }NaCl=(0.217moles)\times (58.5g/mole)=12.7g$

Now we have to calculate the percent yield of this reaction.

Percent yield = $\frac{\text{Actual yield}}{\text{Theoretical yield}}\times 100$

Actual yield = 5.24 g

Theoretical yield = 12.7 g

Percent yield = $\frac{5.24g}{12.7g}\times 100$

Percent yield = 41.3 %

Therefore, the percent yield of this combination reaction is 41.3 %

A geologist is studying the shore along a river. She finds a pile of rocks at the base of a riverbank. These broken rock pieces

Dmitry_Shevchenko [17]

The scientist who studies the earth constituent like solids, gas and liquid is called a geologist. Weathering and erosion are the correct blanks.

<h3>What are weathering and erosion?</h3>

The process of the deterioration of any solid particles like minerals, soils and rocks is called weathering. It occurs due to biochemical substances, atmospheric gases and water pressure.

The process of the transportation of the rocks and mineral particles away from their original position is called erosion it is due to forceful air and water.

The rocks moved from their original place to some another due to weathering and this process of their transportation is called erosion.

Therefore, weathering and erosion are the correct blanks.

How many grams of H2O can be made from the combustion of 3.75 liters of C7H14 and an excess of O2 at STP?

Kitty [74]

Answer:

21.10g of H2O

Explanation:

We'll begin by writing the balanced equation for the reaction. This is given below:

2C7H14 + 21O2 —> 14CO2 + 14H2O

From the balanced equation above, 2L of C7H14 produced 14L of H2O.

Therefore, 3.75L of C7H14 will produce = (3.75 x 14)/2 = 26.25L of H2O.

Next, we shall determine the number of mole of H2O that will occupy 26.25L at stp. This is illustrated below:

1 mole of a gas occupy 22.4L at stp

Therefore, Xmol of H2O will occupy

26.25L i.e

Xmol of H2O = 26.25/22.4

Xmol of H2O = 1.172 mole

Therefore, 1.172 mole of H2O is produced from the reaction.

Next, we shall convert 1.172 mole of H2O to grams. This is illustrated below:

Number of mole H2O = 1.172 mole

Molar mass of H2O = (2x1) + 16 = 18g/mol

Mass of H2O =..?

Mass = mole x molar mass

Mass of H2O = 1.172 x 18

Mass of H2O = 21.10g

Therefore, 21.10g of H2O is produced from the reaction.
