makvit [3.9K]3 years ago
6 0
The formula of acetamide is C2H5NO
It contains 2 atoms of carbon 
The atomic mass of carbon is 12; therefore 2 atoms of carbon contains 24 g
The mass of 1 mole of acetamide is 59.07 g/mol
Therefore; the percentage of carbon in asetamide will be'
 =24/59.07 ×100
 = 40.63 %

Cerrena [4.2K]

Answer:

The percentage yield of water is 66.67%.

Explanation:

2H_2+O_2\rightarrow 2H_2O

Mass of oxygen gas = 100 g

Moles of oxygen gas = \frac{100 g}{32 g/mol}=3.125 mol

According to reaction, 1 mole of oxygen gives 2 moles of water, then 3.125 moles of oxygen will give:

\frac{2}{1}\times 3.125 mol=6.25 mol

Mass of 6.25 moles of water :

6.25 mol × 18 g/mol = 112.5 g

Theoretical yield of water = 112.5 g

Experimental yield of water = 75 g

Percentage yield :

=\frac{\text{Experimental yield}}{\text{Theoretical yield}}\times 100

=\frac{75 g}{112.5 g}\times 100=66.67\%

The percentage yield of water is 66.67%.

mylen [45]
Silver is A precious shiny grayish-white metal, the chemical element of atomic number 47. Silver is sometimes found in nature in metallic form. It forms a sulfide mineral Ag 2 S called acanthite. Mineral forms of silver include sulfides formed with antimony called Stephanite, miargyrite and pyrargyrite. Silver is a naturally occurring element on the periodic table and can be found in natural deposits throughout the world. As such, it was discovered in 5000 BC, but not invented, by people.
