When ethane, c2h6, reacts with chlorine, cl2, the main product is c2h5cl, but other products containing cl such as c2h4cl2 are a

lso obtained in small quantities. c2h6 + cl2 c2h5cl + hcl the formation of these other products reduces the yield of c2h5cl. using the stoichiometry given in the chemical formula above, calculate the percent yield of c2h5cl if the reaction of 150. g of c2h6 with 205 g of cl2 produced 172 g of c2h5cl?

Theoretical yield is the amount supposedly produced by the reaction if it was complete. The balanced chemical reaction is:<span>

</span>

<span> C2H6 + Cl2 = C2H5Cl + HCl</span>

<span>
We use the amounts given for the reactants as the starting point of the calculations to determine the limiting reactant. We do as follows:

150 g C2H6 ( 1 mol / 30.08 g ) = 4.987 mol
205 g Cl2 ( 1 mol / 70.9 g ) = 2.891 mol

Therefore, the limiting reactant would be Cl2 since it would be consumed completely first in the reaction. We use this for the theoretical yield.

<span>2.891 mol Cl2 ( 1 mol C2H5Cl / 1 mol Cl2 ) = </span>2.891 mol C2H5Cl (THEORETICAL YIELD)
172 g ( 1 mol / 64.52 g ) = 2.666 mol C2H5Cl ( ACTUAL YIELD)

Percent yield = 2.666 / 2.891 x 100 = 92.21%</span>

a) T

b) T

c) F

d) F

f) T

g) T

h) F

I) F

j) F

k) F

l) F

Explanation:

The w/v concentration is obtained from, mass/volume. Hence;

%w/v= 50/1000= 5%

In the %w/w we have;

25g/100 g = 25% w/w

In combustion reaction, energy is given out hence it is exothermic.

Neutralization reaction yields a salt and water

% by mass of carbon is obtained from;

8× 12/114 × 100 = 84.1%

All the ionic substances mentioned have very low solubility in water.

One mole of a substance contains the Avogadro's number of each atom in the compound.

There are two iron atoms so one mole contains 2× 55.85 g of iron.

Some sulphates such as BaSO4 are insoluble in water.

Halides are soluble in water hence NaI is soluble in water.

The equation does not balance with the given coefficients because the number of atoms of each element on both sides differ.

The equation represents a decomposition of calcium carbonate as written.

The town in the video stressed using locally made goods instead of imported goods. How could using locally made goods lower CO2
ladessa [460]

Answer:

It reduces the need to import goods

Explanation:

When you buy locally, the products you buy don't come from far away, so they don't have to cross the country (or the ocean) by boat, plane or trucks to reach the market/store where you're buying, at least not from a long distance away.

The distance a vehicle travels, the less CO2 emissions it produces.

If the good you're buying is made/produced only an hour away, that's not much pollution produced compared as if the good has to come from a distant place spending days on highways to reach you.
