B) 40%  
The balanced equation indicates that for every 3 moles of H2 used, 2 moles of NH3 will be produced. So the reaction if it had 100% yield would produce (2.00 / 3) * 2 = 1.333333333 moles of NH3. But only 0.54 moles were produced. So the percent yield is 0.54 / 1.3333 = 0.405 = 40.5%. This is a close enough match to option "b" to be considered correct.

Answer: The correct option is b.

Explanation: To calculate the percentage yield, we use the formula:

\%\text{ yield}=\frac{\text{Experimental yield}}{\text{Theoretical yield}}\times 100   ....(1)

For a given reaction:

3H_2+N_2\rightarrow 2NH_3

  • Experimental yield calculations:

0.54 moles of ammonia is formed.

So, amount of ammonia formed will be calculated using the formula:

Moles=\frac{\text{given mass}}{\text{Molar mass}}      ....(2)

Molar mass of NH_3 = 17.031g/mol

0.54=\frac{\text{given mass}}{17.031}

Amount of NH_3 = 9.197g

Experimental yield : 9.197 g

  • Theoretical yield calculations:

By Stoichiometry of the reaction,

Here, limiting reagent is hydrogen gas because it limits the formation of product.

3 moles of hydrogen gas is producing 2 moles of ammonia

So, 2 moles of hydrogen gas will produce = \frac{2}{3}\times 2=1.33 moles of ammonia.

Amount of ammonia is calculated by using equation 2, we get:

1.33moles=\frac{\text{Given mass}}{17.031g/mol}

Theoretical yield of ammonia  =22.65 grams

Now, putting values in equation 1, we get:

\%\text{ yield}=\frac{9.197}{22.65}\times 100

% yield=40.60 %

Hence, the correct option is b.

3241004551 [841]

Answer:

alpha particles

Explanation:

alpha particles the least penetrating but potentially most damaging and gamma rays the most penetrating. A beta particle, also called beta ray or beta radiation, is a high-energy, high-speed electron or positron emitted by the radioactive decay of an atomic nucleus during the process of beta decay.

The notation for the nuclide 13755Cs gives information about
k0ka [10]

Answer is (3) both mass number and atomic number.

The notation is ₅₅¹³⁷Cs. The Cs represents the chemical symbol of Caesium element. The subscript number at the left hand side of the symbol indicates the atomic number. Hence, atomic number of Cs is 55. The superscript number at the left hand side of the symbol shows the mass number. Hence, the mass number of the Cs is 137.

Consider a neutrally charged atom that has an atomic mass number of 80, which includes 35 neutrons. how many electrons does this
ivanzaharov [21]
Atomic mass number is the number of protons and neutrons. Subtract 80-35=45 is the number of protons. Because the atom is neutrally charged, the number of protons must equal the number of electrons, so there are 45 electrons.

A chemistry student must write down in her lab notebook the concentration of a solution of sodium hydroxide. The concentration o
HACTEHA [7]

Answer:

1.099 gmL¯¹ ≈ 1.1 gmL¯¹

Explanation:

From the question given above, the following were obtained:

Mass of empty cylinder = 9.5 g

Mass Cylinder + NaOH = 31.92 g

Volume of solution = 20.4 mL

Concentration of solution =?

Next, we shall determine the mass of sodium hydroxide, NaOH. This can be obtained as as illustrated below:

Mass of empty cylinder = 9.5 g

Mass Cylinder + NaOH = 31.92 g

Mass of NaOH =?

Mass of NaOH = (Mass Cylinder + NaOH) – (Mass of empty cylinder)

Mass of NaOH = 31.92 – 9.5

Mass of NaOH = 22.42 g

Finally, we shall determine concentration of the solution as follow:

Mass of NaOH = 22.42 g

Volume of solution = 20.4 mL

Concentration of solution =?

Concentration = mass /volume

Concentration of solution = 22.42 / 20.4

Concentration of solution = 1.099 gmL¯¹ ≈ 1.1 gmL¯¹

Therefore, the concentration of the solution is 1.1 gmL¯¹

Which of the following are functions of the ears?
Advocard [28]

The functions of the ears are:

I. Hearing by collecting and processing sound waves

II. Keeping our balance when we turn or bend over; option A

<h3>What is the function of the ear?</h3>

The ear is one of the five sense organs in the body.

The sense organs are the organs which receive external stimulus and send it to the brain for processing and response.

The other sense organs are:

  • the eye
  • the nose
  • the skin
  • the tongue

The functions of the ear are for hearing and for balance.

In conclusion, the sense organs function to receive stimulus and send them to the brain.
