You complete a chemical reaction and recover 79 grams of product. However, you calculate you should have recovered 104 grams of

product. What is the percent yield?

Percent yield is calculated using:
percent \: yield =  \frac{actual \: yield}{theoretical \: yield}   \times 100\%

Your actual yield is how much you actually had at the end of the experiment = 79g.

Your theoretical yield is how much you calculated you should have gotten in an ideal, perfect experiment = 104g.

So put those values into the equation:
percent \: yield =  \frac{79}{104}  \times 100\% = 76\%

If 7.0 mol sample of a gas has a volume of 12.2 L, what would the volume be if the amount of gas was increased to 16.8 mol
Leviafan [203]

Answer:

V_{2} = 29.28\,L

Explanation:

Let assume that gas behaves ideally and experiments an isobaric and isothermal processes. The following relationship is applied to determined the final volume:

\frac{V_{1}}{n_{1}} = \frac{V_{2}}{n_{2}}

V_{2} = V_{1} \cdot \left(\frac{n_{2}}{n_{1}} \right)

V_{2} = (12.2\,L)\cdot \left(\frac{16.8\,moles}{7\,moles} \right)

V_{2} = 29.28\,L

Small quantities of hydrogen can be prepared by the addition of hydrochloric acid to zinc. a sample of 195 ml of hydrogen was co
Vikentia [17]
Let's go over the given information. We have the volume, temperature and pressure. From the ideal gas equation, that's 4 out of 5 knowns. So, we actually don't need Pvap of water anymore. Assuming ideal gas, the solution is as follows:

PV=nRT
Solving for n,
n = PV/RT = (753 torr)(1 atm/760 torr)(195 mL)(1 L/1000 mL)/(0.0821 L·atm/mol·K)(25+273 K)
n = 7.897×10⁻³ mol H₂

The molar mass of H₂ is 2 g/mol.

Mass of H₂ = 7.897×10⁻³ mol * 2 g/mol = <em>0.016 g H₂</em>

Which which atom is held together by covalent bonds?​
Sedaia [141]
Covalent bonds are strong bonds. Atoms that share pairs of electrons form molecules. A molecule is a group of atoms held together by covalent bonds. A diatomic molecule is a molecule containing only two atoms.
