Answer: The correct answer is option (a).

Explanation:

Dependent variables are the variables whose value depend on another variable. Its value changes as the independent variable changes.

Independent variables are the variables which do not depend on any other variable beside . Its value does not change with a change in other dependent variables.

While conducting experiment scientist changes dependent variable in order to record observations.

Consider the reaction. 2 Pb ( s ) + O 2 ( g ) ⟶ 2 PbO ( s ) An excess of oxygen reacts with 451.4 g of lead, forming 367.5 g of

Art [367]

Answer : The percent yield of the reaction is, 75.6 %

Solution : Given,

Mass of Pb = 451.4 g

Molar mass of Pb = 207 g/mole

Molar mass of PbO = 223 g/mole

First we have to calculate the moles of Pb.

$\text{ Moles of }Pb=\frac{\text{ Mass of }Pb}{\text{ Molar mass of }Pb}=\frac{451.4g}{207g/mole}=2.18moles$

Now we have to calculate the moles of $PbO$

The balanced chemical reaction is,

$2Pb(s)+O_2(g)\rightarrow 2PbO(s)$

From the reaction, we conclude that

As, 2 mole of $Pb$ react to give 2 mole of $PbO$

So, 2.18 mole of $Pb$ react to give 2.18 mole of $PbO$

Now we have to calculate the mass of $PbO$

$\text{ Mass of }PbO=\text{ Moles of }PbO\times \text{ Molar mass of }PbO$

$\text{ Mass of }PbO=(2.18moles)\times (223g/mole)=486.1g$

Theoretical yield of $PbO$ = 486.1 g

Experimental yield of $PbO$ = 367.5 g

Now we have to calculate the percent yield of the reaction.

$\% \text{ yield of the reaction}=\frac{\text{ Experimental yield of }PbO}{\text{ Theoretical yield of }PbO}\times 100$

$\% \text{ yield of the reaction}=\frac{367.5g}{486.1g}\times 100=75.6\%$

Therefore, the percent yield of the reaction is, 75.6 %

Complete combustion of 5.90 g of a hydrocarbon produced 19.2 g of CO2 and 5.89 g of H2O. What is the empirical formula for the h

scZoUnD [109]

$44g \ CO_{2} \ \ \ \rightarrow \ \ 12g \ C\\
19,2g \ CO_{2} \rightarrow \ \ \ x\\\\
x=\frac{19,2g*12g}{44g}\approx5,24g \ \ \ \Rightarrow \ \ n=\frac{5,24g}{12\frac{g}{mol}}\approx0,44mol\\\\\\
18g \ H_{2}O \ \ \ \rightarrow \ \ \ 2g \ H\\
5,89g \ H_{2}O \ \rightarrow \ \ y\\\\
y=\frac{5,89g*2g}{18g}\approx0,65g \ \ \ \ \Rightarrow \ \ n=\frac{0,65g}{1\frac{g}{mol}}=0,65mol\\\\\\
n_{C}:n_{H}=0,44:0,65\approx1:1\\\\

The molecule of ethane posses which hybridization..........

LiRa [457]

Answer:

Sp3

Explanation:

Hydrocarbon can be defined as an organic compound that comprises of hydrogen and carbon only. Some examples of hydrocarbon are methane, butane, ethane, ethene, etc.

Hybridization can be defined as a phenomenon which involves the combination of two or more atomic orbitals to form the same number of hybrid orbitals, with each of the orbitals having the same shape and energy.

In Organic chemistry, ethane is considered to be a tetrahedral carbon and it's Sp3 hybridized.

A tetrahedral carbon typically comprises of four bonds that are 109. 5° apart while a linear carbon atom comprises of two (2) bonds that are 180° apart.

Hence, the molecule of ethane posses a Sp3 hybridization because it has four bonds arrange with a tetrahedral geometry.
