Answer: the fourth stament, The theoretical yield is calculated from the amount of the limiting reactant present.


Justification:


1) Limiting reactant is the one that is in less proportion than the theoretical mole ratio.


2) Excess reactant is the one that is in greater proportion than the theoretical ratio.


3) For example, if you have the equation A + 2B → C, means that 1 mol of A react with 2 moles of B to yield 1 mol of C.


As per that equation, the theoretical mole ratio is 1 mol of A : 2 moles of B : 1 moles of C.


If the actual amounts of A and B were 2 and 4, respectively, they were in the same ratio as the theoretical ratio, and all of the both reactants could react.


But if you had, for example, 2 moles of reactant A and 2 moles of reactant B, only one of the moles of A could react with the 2 moles of B, so B would be the limiting reactant: the whole 2 moles of B would react, while only 1 mole of A would reactant, and 1 mole of A would be left over (A is in excess).


Therefore, you cannot use the 2 moles of A to calculate the theoretical yield (since only 1 mole reacted), instead you must use the limiting reactant (B), which is the one that reacts completely.

what is the electrical charge of the nucleus of an atom that has 12 protons and 12 neutrons and 12 electrons
ExtremeBDS [4]

Answer:

Neutral.

Explanation:

Protons have a positive charge. In this problem there are 12.

Electrons have a negative charge. In this problem there are 12.

Neutrons have a neutral charge that isn't relevant tot the overall charge, it can be ignored.

#protons - #e- = charge

12 - 12 = 0

The protons and electrons balance each other out, resulting in a 0 net charge. This means the atom has a neutral charge.
