Answer:

The answer to your question is 92.7%

Explanation:

Balanced Chemical reaction

                             3 Zn  + Fe₂(SO₄)₃   ⇒   2Fe   +   3ZnSO₄

Molecular weight

Zinc = 65.4 x 3 = 196.2g

Iron (III) = 56 x 2 = 112 g

Proportions  

                           196.2 g of Zinc ------------------ 112 g of Iron

                            20.4 g of Zinc  -----------------   x

                            x = (20.4 x 112) / 196.2

                            x = 2284.8/196.2

                            x = 11.65 g of Iron

% yield = \frac{10.8}{11.65}  x 100

% yield = 0.927 x 100

% yield = 92.7

Answer:

93.1%

Explanation:

As with all stoichometry problems, you must start by writing a balanced equation.

3 Zn (s) + Fe2O3 (s) → 2 Fe (s) + 3 ZnO (s)

Since you are given that there is 20.4g of Zinc metal as a reactant, that is your given. You will use this number to calculate your theoretical yield by using the mole ratio between Zinc and Iron.

20.4 g Zn • 1 mol Zn/65.38 g Zn • 2 mol Fe/3 mol Zn • 55.85g Fe/1 mol Fe = 11.6g Fe

Therefore, your theoretical yield is 11.6g.

Now, you divide your actual yield (10.8g) by your theoretical yield (11.6g) and multiply by 100 to get a percentage.

10.8g/11.6g • 100 = 93.1%

Therefore, your percent yield is 93.1%.

What is a common reason for observing an increased chemical shift of a c-h proton
stira [4]

Deshielding due to an electronegative element close by is the common reason for observing increased chemical shift of a c-h proton

<h3>What is a chemical shift? </h3>

The resonance frequency of a proton in relation to a standard compound is represented by chemical shift. Chemical shift, which is measured in ppm and is represented by the sign (δ),  (parts per million).The chemical shift in a proton NMR spectrum provides details about the targeted proton's chemical surroundings. The structure of the investigated substance, especially electronegative components or effects, has a significant impact on the chemical shift value. Electronegative elements' ability to remove electron density from the proton, which raises the chemical shift value, is one explanation for this. The proton is more exposed to the magnetic field that is being applied externally as a result of this process, which is referred to as de-shielding.

fenix001 [56]

An apple should be cut into 4 equal pieces, then put each slice in a separate container and label accordingly with letters A, B, C, and Control. Put water, ginger ale, and lemon juice into containers A, B, and C respectively but leave the Control untouched. Observe which of the slices in containers A, B, C will stay the same color after the one in control turns brown, if the slice maintains its color then the liquid added prevents an apple slice from browning. The variables are the liquids added and the control is the slice that did not have anything added to it.
