True or false silica is the most abundant compound found in magma.

What is the percentage yield of O2 if 12.3 g of KClO3 (molar mass 123 g) is decomposed to produce 3.2 g of O2 (molar mass 32 g)

My name is Ann [436]

Answer:

The percentage yield of O2 is 66.7%

Explanation:

Reaction for decomposition of potassium chlorate is:

2KClO₃ → 2KCl + 3O₂

The products are potassium chloride and oxygen.

Let's find out the moles of chlorate.

Mass / Molar mass = Moles

12.3 g / 123 g/mol = 0.1 mol

So ratio is 2:3, 2 moles of chlorate produce 3 mol of oxygen.

Then, 0.1 mol of chlorate may produce (0.1 .3)/ 2 = 0.15 moles

Let's convert the moles of produced oxygen, as to find out the theoretical yield.

0.15 mol . 32 g/ 1mol = 4.8 g

To calculate the percentage yield, the formula is

(Produced Yield / Theoretical yield) . 100 =

(3.2g / 4.8g) . 100 = 66.7 %

The half-life of a certain tranquilizer in the bloodstream is 5050 hours. how long will it take for the drug to decay to 8686%

Novosadov [1.4K]

Using the exponential decay model; we calculate "k"
We know that "A" is half of A0
A = A0 e^(k× 5050)
A/A0 = e^(5050k)
0.5 = e^(5055k)
In (0.5) = 5055k
-0.69315 = 5055k
k = -0.0001371
To calculate how long it will take to decay to 86% of the original mass
0.86 = e^(-0.0001371t)
In (0.86) = -0.0001371t
-0.150823 = -0.0001371 t
t = 1100 hours

pressure has little effect on the solubility of liquids and solids because they are almost incompressible. True or False

slavikrds [6]

Pressure has little effect on the solubility of liquids and solids because they are almost incompressible True.

Liquids and solids show little change in solubility with changes in pressure. As expected, gases increase in solubility with increasing pressure. Henry's Law states that the solubility of a gas in a liquid is directly proportional to the pressure of that gas above the surface of the solution.

External pressure has little effect on liquid and solid solubility. In contrast, the solubility of a gas increases as the partial pressure of the gas above the solution increases.

Solubility is a measure of the concentration of dissolved gas particles in a liquid and is a function of gas pressure. Increasing the gas pressure increases the number of collisions and increases the solubility, and decreasing the pressure decreases the solubility.

What mass of H₂ is needed to react with 8.75 g of O₂ according to the following equation: O2(g) + H2(g) → H₂O(g)?

FromTheMoon [43]

Explanation:

For reacting with 8.75 grams of oxygen, 1.08 grams of hydrogen is required.

The given balanced equation has been:

\rm O_2\;+\;2\;H_2\;\rightarrow\;H_2OO2+2H2→H2O

From the equation, 1 mole of oxygen reacts with 2 mole of hydrogen to give 1 mole of water.

The mass of oxygen has been: 8.75 g,

Moles = \rm \dfrac{weight}{molecular\;weight}molecularweightweight

Moles of oxygen = \rm \dfrac{8.75}{32}328.75

Moles of oxygen = 0.27 mol

Since,

1 mole Oxygen = 2 mole hydrogen

0.21 mol oxygen = 0.54 mol hydrogen

Mass of hydrogen = moles \times× molecular weight

Mass of hydrogen = 0.54 \times× 2

Mass of hydrogen = 1.08 grams.

Thus, for reacting with 8.75 grams of oxygen, 1.08 grams of hydrogen is required.
