Answer:

Theoretical yield is 10.0g of HF.

Explanation:

Theoretical yield is defined as the yield of a reaction assuming a 100%.

In the reaction:

SiF₄(s) + 2H₂O(l) → 4HF(aq) + SiO₂(s)

2 moles of water produce 4 moles of HF.

4.51g of H₂O are:

4.51g ₓ (1mol/18.02g) = 0.250moles of water. Moles of HF:

0.250moles H₂O ₓ (4mol HF/2mol H₂O) = 0.500mol HF

In grams:

0.500mol HF ₓ (20.01g / 1mol) = <em>10.0g of HF - theoretical yield-</em>

I hope it helps!

As the volume of a gas increases, what happens to the pressure of the gas?
Elena L [17]
Boyle found that when the pressure of gas at a constant temperature is increased, the volume of the gas decreases. when the pressure of gas is decreased, the volume increases. this relationship between pressure and volume is called Boyle's law.

Although Rutherford is credited with the famous gold foil scattering experiment, he didn’t actually conduct this experiment hims
DerKrebs [107]
If he was the primary scientist doing it as he did alot of the heavy lifting then yes its ok, but i also think how the others should also me at least mentioned. Or they could just not name the experiment by a person just so its not too biased
