Answer:

87.6%

Explanation:

Step 1:

The balanced equation for the reaction.

LiOH + HCl —> LiCl + H2O

Step 2:

Determination of the mass of LiOH that reacted and the mass of LiCl produced from the balanced equation.

This is illustrated below:

Molar mass of LiOH = 7 + 16 + 1 = 24g/mol

Mass of LiOH from the balanced equation = 1 x 24 = 24g

Molar Mass of LiCl = 7 + 35.5 = 42.5g/mol

Mass of LiCl from the balanced equation = 1 x 42.5 = 42.5g

Thus, from the balanced equation, 24g of LiOH reacted to produce 42.5g of LiCl.

Step 3:

Determination of the theoretical yield of LiCl.

This is illustrated below:

From the balanced equation above,

24g of LiOH reacted to produce 42.5g of LiCl.

Therefore, 20g of LiOH will react to produce = (20 x 42.5)/24 = 35.4g

Therefore, the theoretical yield of LiCl is 35.4g.

Step 4:

Determination of the percentage yield of LiCl. This is illustrated below:

Actual yield of LiCl = 31g

Theoretical yield of LiCl = 35.4g

Percentage yield of LiCl =.?

Percentage yield = Actual yield /Theoretical yield x 100

Percentage yield = 31/35.4 x 100

Percentage yield of LiCl = 87.6%

Use the bond energies to answer the question.
Schach [20]

Answer:

D

Explanation:

Hello!

This is a topic I just learned this year so I might not help the best as of explaining. But I will try my best.

To solve this problem, we must first figure the balanced equation.

H₂+O₂=H₂O₂

Now, we have to find the bond energy of the reactants and products. This is how.

Let's find the reactant first.

For the compound H₂, the Lewis dot structure says that it only consists of one singular bond. So the bond energy of H₂ would be 432.

For the compound O₂, the Lewis dot structure that is the best out of the resonance structures form a double bond. Let's use the bond energy 495 for this since there are double bonds and we need the corresponding double bond energy to make the bond energy accurate.

Let's add this amount together. 927

Now, we have to find the bond energy of the products.

H₂O₂ sounds complicated but it's fairly easy. When you write the Lewis dot structure for this specific compound, you will get something along the lines of this:

H-O-O-H (disregarding lone pairs)

In this compound, there are two bonds of H-O and one bond that is a O-O. This might take you a long time to see this, but just think of what atom is touching the atom next door. This might help distinguish the bonds there are between the compound.

Let's take the bond energy of H-O (467) and multiply this by two since we have two. Add that number to the bond energy of O-O (146). We should have the numbers 1080.

Since the problem is asking for the difference in total energy between the reactants and products, let's subtract the total bond energy of the products-reactants.

1080-927=153

Therefore, your final answer of the total bond energy is 153.

What is the molarity of a solution containing 55.8 g of mgcl2 dissolved in 1.00 l of solution?
MakcuM [25]
The answer is 0.59 M.

Molar mass (Mr) of MgCl₂ is the sum of the molar masses of its elements.
So, from the periodic table:
Mr(Mg) = 24.3 g/l
Mr(Cl) = 35.45 g/l
Mr(MgCl₂) = Mr(Mg) + 2Mr(Cl) = 24.3 + 2 · 35.45 = 24.3 + 70.9 = 95.2 g/l

So, 1 mol has 95.2 g/l.

Our solution contains 55.8g in 1 l  of solution, which is 55.8 g/l

Now, we need to make a proportion:
1 mole has 95.2 g/l, how much moles will have 55.8 g/l:
1 M : 95.2 g/l = x : 55.8 g/l
x = 1 M · 55.8 g/l ÷ 95.2 g/l ≈ 0.59 M
