The Balance Chemical Equation is as follow,

2 HCl + Pb(NO₃)₂ → 2 HNO₃ + PbCl₂

According to equation,

331.2 g (1 mole) Pb(NO₃)₂ produces = 278.1 g (1 mole) PbCl₂

So,

870 g of Pb(NO₃)₂ will produce = X g of PbCl₂

Solving for X,

X = (870 g × 278.1 g) ÷ 331.2 g

X = 730.5 g of PbCl₂

Therefore,

Theoretical Yield = 730.5 g

Also as given,

Actual Yield = 650 g

So using following formula for percentage yield,

%age Yield = (Actual Yield / Theoretical Yield) × 100

Putting values,

%age Yield = (650 g / 730.5 g) × 100

%age Yield = 88.98 %

The following reaction is part of the electron transport chain. Complete the reaction and identify which species is reduced. The

Olegator [25]

Answer:

$FADH_2 + Q --> FAD + QH_2$

The reactant that is reduced is $FADH_2$

Explanation:

The complete equation is as below:

$FADH_2 + Q --> FAD + QH_2$

Recall that oxidation involves the gain of electrons while reduction involves the loss of electrons.

In the above reaction, $FADH_2$ loses electrons to coenzyme Q and becomes reduced to FAD, hence the oxidizing agent. Coenzyme Q gains electrons and becomes oxidized to $QH_2$ , hence the reducing agent.

In order words, $FADH_2$ is reduced while coenzyme Q is oxidized.

What two parts are needed to make a neutral atom of neon

almond37 [142]

Answer:

it needs two electrons in the first and eight to fill the second.

Explanation:

Because neon has two atomic shells, it needs two electrons in the first and eight to fill the second. Neon has a total of ten electrons which means two filled shells.

Aspirin (C9H8O4) may be synthesized by mixing salicylic acid (C7H6O3) with excess acetic anhydride (C4H6O3).

diamong [38]

Answer:

65.18% is the percent yield for this reaction.

Explanation:

$C_7H_6O_3 + C_4H_6O_3\rightarrow C_9H_8O_4 + C_2H_4O_2$

Moles of salicyclic acid = $\frac{2.0 g}{138 g/mol}=0.01449 mol$

According to reaction 1 mole of salicyclic acid gives 1 mole of aspirin .

Then 0.01449 mole of salicylic acid will give :

$\frac{1}{1}\times 0.01449 mol=0.01449 mol$ of asprin

Mass of 0.01449 moles of aspirin :

= 0.01449 mol × 180 g/mol = 2.6082 g

Theoretical yield of aspirin = 2.6082 g

Experimental yield of aspirin = 1.7 g

The percent yield for this reaction:

$\%(Yield)=\frac{\text{Experimental yield}}{\text{Theoretical yield}}\times 100$

$=\frac{1.7 g}{2.6082 g}\times 100=65.18\%$

65.18% is the percent yield for this reaction.

If hydrochloric acid is obtained commercially at a concentration of 12.1M, how many milliliters of 12.1M HCl(aq) must be used to

rewona [7]

Answer:

$V_1=82.6mL$

Explanation:

Hello there!

In this case, according to this question, we will need to deal with this dilution problem, because it is asking for the volume of a 12.1-M stock solution of HCl. In such a way, we can use the following equation, under the assumption of no change in the number of moles in the solution:

$M_2V_2=M_1V_1$

Thus, we solve for the initial volume, V1, as shown below:

$V_1=\frac{M_2V_2}{M_1}$

And plug in the initial concentration and final concentration and volume to obtain:

$V_1=\frac{2000mL*0.500M}{12.1M}\\\\V_1=82.6mL$

Regards!
