Chemistry

Answer : The correct answer for the Theoretical Yield is 48.93 g of product .

Theoretical yield : It is amount of product produced by limiting reagent . It is smallest product yield of product formed .

Following are the steps to find theoretical yield .

Step 1) : Write a balanced reaction between Al and Cl₂ .

2 Al + 3 Cl₂→ 2 AlCl₃

Step 2: To find amount of product (AlCl₃) formed by Al .

Following are the sub steps to calculate amount of AlCl₃ formed :

a) To calculate mole of Al :

Given : Mass of Al = 35.5 g

Mole can be calculate by following formula :

Mole = \frac{given mass (g)}{atomic mass \frac{g}{mol}}

Mole = \frac{35.5 g }{26.9 \frac{g}{mol}}

Mole = 1.32 mol

b) To find mole ratio of AlCl₃ : Al

Mole ratio is calculated from balanced reaction .

Mole of Al in balanced reaction = 2

Mole of AlCl₃ in balanced reaction = 2.

Hence mole ratio of AlC; l₃ : Al = 2:2

c) To find mole of AlCl₃ formed :

Mole of AlCl_3 = Mole of Al * Mole ratio

Mole of AlCl_3 = 1.32 mol of Al * \frac{2}{2}

Mole of AlCl₃ = 1.32 mol

d) To find mass of AlCl₃

Molar mass of AlCl₃ = 133.34 \frac{g}{mol}

Mass of AlCl3 can be calculated using mole formula as:

1.32 mol of AlCl_3 = \frac{ mass (g)}{133.34 \frac{g}{mol}}

Multiplying both side by 133.34 \frac{g}{mol}

1.32 mole  * 133.34\frac{g}{mol} = \frac{mass (g)}{133.34\frac{g}{mol}} *133.34  \frac{g}{mol}

Mass of AlCl₃ = 176.00 g

Hence mass of AlCl₃ produced by Al is 176.00 g

Step 3) To find mass of product (AlCl₃) formed by Cl₂ :

Same steps will be followed to calculate mass of AlCl₃

a) Find mole of Cl₂

Mole of Cl_2 = \frac{39.0 g}{70.9\frac{g}{mol}}

Mole of Cl₂ = 0.55 mol

b) Mole ratio of Cl₂ : AlCl₃

Mole of Cl₂ in balanced reaction = 3

Mole of AlCl₃ in balanced reaction = 2

Hence mole ratio of AlCl₃ : Cl₂ = 2 : 3

c) To find mole of AlCl₃

Mole of AlCl_3 = mole of Cl_2 * mole ratio

Mole of AlCl_3 = 0.55  mole  * \frac{2}{3}

Mole of AlCl3 = 0.367 mol

d) To find mass of AlCl₃ :

0.367 mol of AlCl_3 = \frac{mass (g) }{133.34 \frac{g}{mol}}

Multiplying both side by

133.34 \frac{g}{mol}

0.367 mol of AlCl_3 * 133.34 \frac{g}{mol}  = \frac{mass(g)}{133.34\frac{g}{mol}}   * 133.34 \frac{g}{mol}

Mass of AlCl₃ = 48.93 g

Hence mass of AlCl₃ produced by Cl₂ = 48.93 g

Step 4) To identify limiting reagent and theoretical yield :

Limiting reagent is the reactant which is totally consumed when the reaction is complete . It is identified as the reactant which produces least yield or theoretical yield of product .

The product AlCl₃ formed by Al = 176.00 g

The product AlCl₃ formed by Cl₂ = 48.93 g

Since Cl₂ is producing less amount of product hence it is limiting reagent and 48.93 g will be considered as Theoretical yield .

How many grams of Sodium carbonate (Na2CO3) contain 1.773x10^17 carbon atoms?
lora16 [44]
An important information or constant to recall here is the Avogadros constant. This will help us solve how many moles are there from the number of atoms given. These is how we proceed: 1.773x10^ {17}*  \frac{ mol}{6.02*10^{23}} *  \frac{1 mole Na2CO3}{1 moleC}*  \frac{105.98g Na2CO3}{mol}  = 3.12 * 10^{-5}

NH,F+ _AICI,<br>__NH,CI + __A!F,​
mart [117]

Explanation:

                          NH₄F+     AICI₃,    →   NH₄CI +   AlF₃

   NH,F: in ionic form

           NH₄⁺ + F⁻   =    NH₄F

   AICI in ionic form:

         Al³⁺ + Cl⁻   = AlCl₃

   NH Cl in ionic form:

          NH₄⁺ + Cl⁻ = NH₄Cl

    Al F in ionic form:

         Al³⁺ + F⁻   =  AlF₃

                     NH₄F+     AICI₃,    →   NH₄CI +   AlF₃

Now we have to balance the equation with respect to the atoms:

           aNH₄F+     bAICI₃,    →   cNH₄CI +   dAlF₃

  for N: a = c

        H: 4a = 4c

        F:  a = 3d

        Cl: 3b = c

   let a = 1

        c = 1

         b = \frac{1}{3}

        d = \frac{1}{3}

Therefore we can imply that:

     a = 3, b = 1 , c = 3 and d = 1 if we multiply through by 3

          3NH₄F+     AICI₃,    →   3NH₄CI +   AlF₃

How many atoms are there in 10.0 g of sodium?
Alex73 [517]
Use the grams to moles first. The molar mass of sodium is 22.99g, so 10/22.99 ≈ 0.43 moles. The use moles to atoms conversions. 0.43 x (6.022 x 10^23), which would be about 2.62 x 10^23 atoms in 10g of sodium.
