<span>Balance the equation
    8Zn + S8 -----> 8ZnS
    work out how much ZnS is possible if all of each reagent were to react. The reagent that produces the least product is the limiting reagent.
    moles Zn = mass / molar mass = 4.88 g / 65.38 g/mol = 0.07464 moles
  8 moles Zn reacts to form 8 moles ZnS
  Therefore moles ZnS possible = moles Zn = 0.07464 moles

    moles S8 = 5.03 g / 256.48 g/mol = 0.01961 mol
  1 mole S8 reacts to form 8 moles ZnS
  Therefore moles ZnS possible = 8 x moles S8 = 0.1569 mol

    The amount of Zn provided gives the least ZnS, therefore Zn is the limiting reagent.
    The theoretical yield is the maximum possible yield possible from the reagents provided. It is the amount of product that will form if all the limiting reagent reacts.
  So in this case 4.88 g Zn yields 0.07464 mol ZnS

    theoretical mass ZnS = molar mass x moles
  = 97.44 g/mol x 0.07464 mol
  = 7.27 g

    % yield = actual yield / theoretical yield x 100/1
  = 6.02 g / 7.27 g x 100/1
  = 82.8 %</span>

What is the mole fraction of water in pure water
irinina [24]
In pure water, all of the molecules in the liquid are water molecules so the mole fraction is 1 (100 % H2O, 55 mol/L). In sea water, the concentration of water molecules in the solution is less than that of pure water so the vapor pressure of sea water is also lower.

A 3.82L balloon filled with gas is warmed from 204.9K to 304.8 K.
likoan [24]

Given :

A 3.82L balloon filled with gas is warmed from 204.9K to 304.8 K.

To Find :

The volume of the gas after it is heated.

Solution :

Since, their is no information about pressure in the question statement let us assume that pressure is constant.

Now, we know by ideal gas equation at constant pressure :

\dfrac{V_1}{V_2} = \dfrac{T_1}{T_2}\\\\\dfrac{3.82}{V_2}= \dfrac{204.9}{304.8}\\\\V_2 = \dfrac{304.8}{204.9} \times 3.82\\\\V_2 = 5.68 \ L

Hence, this is the required solution.

What is/are the principal product(s) formed when excess methylmagnesium iodide reacts with p-hydroxyacetophenone?
Montano1993 [528]

The end product will depend upon

a) the amount of the reagent taken

b) the final treatment of the reaction

If we have just taken methylmagnesium iodide and p-hydroxyacetophenone, then we will get methane and hydroxyl group substituted with MgI in place of hydrogen

Figure 1

However if we have taken excess of methylmagnesium iodide which is Grignard's reagent followed by hydrolysis we will get different product
