Assuming that the combustion formula is
CH4 + 2O2 --> 2H2O + CO2<span>,

That means for every 1 molecule of methane(CH4) there will be one molecule of carbon dioxide(</span>CO2) produced. Methane molecular weight 16, carbon dioxide molecular weight is 44. Then the percent yield should be:
1 * (0.374/ 16) /(0.983/44)= 0.374*44/ 0.983 * 16= 104.6%

You sure the number is correct? Percent yield should not exceed 100%

Write the complete balanced equation for the reaction between CaCO3 and KCI
EleoNora [17]

CaCO3 + 2KCL ⇒ CaCl2 + K2CO3

It is balanced as so based on the charges given on the periodic table and polyatomic ions.

Calcium has the charge of 2 but CO3 also shares the same charge, thus cancelling that out.

Potassium has a charge of 1 while Chlorine also shares a charge of 1, also cancelling it out.

Thus, if it performs a double replacement reaction, they would take these charges to the new elements that do not cancel out their charges.

Therefore, we need the coefficient of 2 in front of Potassium Chloride in order to balance the equation as on the products side of the equation, Potassium and Chlorine both have a subscript of 2.

Hope this helps!

<h3>Answer:</h3>

D. Allotrope

<h3>Explanation:</h3>

What is allotropy?

  • Allotropy refers to the existence of an element in more than one physical forms.
  • Allotropes are therefore different forms of an element with different physical properties or chemical arrangements.

What are some examples of allotropes?

  • Examples of elements that exhibit allotropy include, sulfur and carbon.
  • Allotropes of carbon are diamond and graphite.
  • Allotropes of sulfur are monoclinic sulfur and rhombic sulfur.

At 524 mm Hg and 35 °C, a sample of gas occupies a volume of 275 ml. The gas is transferred to a 325-ml flask and the temperatur
Deffense [45]

Answer:

400.197mmHg

Explanation:

P1V1 / T1 = P2V2 / T2

Where P1=524 mm Hg V1 =275 ml T1 = 35°C +273 = 308k

V2= 325-ml T2= 5°C+273 = 278k , P2= ?

Substituting the values into the formula.

524 mm Hg ×275 ml /308k = P2×325-ml/278k

Cross multiply

524 mm Hg ×275 ml×278k=308k×P2×325-ml

40059800= 100100×P2

P2 = 40059800/100100

P2= 400.197mmHg

Hence, the second pressure will be 400.197mmHg
