Determine the theoretical yield of HCl if 60.0 g of BC13 and 37.5 g of H20 are reacted according to the following balanced react

Pie

Answer : The theoretical yield of HCl is, 56.1735 grams

Explanation : Given,

Mass of $BCl_3$ = 60 g

Mass of $H_2O$ = 37.5 g

Molar mass of $BCl_3$ = 117 g/mole

Molar mass of $H_2O$ = 18 g/mole

Molar mass of $HCl$ = 36.5 g/mole

First we have to calculate the moles of $BCl_3$ and $H_2O$ .

$\text{Moles of }BCl_3=\frac{\text{Mass of }BCl_3}{\text{Molar mass of }BCl_3}=\frac{60g}{117g/mole}=0.513moles$

$\text{Moles of }H_2O=\frac{\text{Mass of }H_2O}{\text{Molar mass of }H_2O}=\frac{37.5g}{18g/mole}=2.083moles$

Now we have to calculate the limiting and excess reagent.

The balanced chemical reaction is,

$BCl_3(g)+3H_2O(l)\rightarrow H_3BO_3(s)+3HCl(g)$

From the balanced reaction we conclude that

As, 1 mole of $BCl_3$ react with 3 mole of $H_2O$

So, 0.513 moles of $BCl_3$ react with $3\times 0.513=1.539$ moles of $H_2O$

From this we conclude that, $H_2O$ is an excess reagent because the given moles are greater than the required moles and $BCl_3$ is a limiting reagent and it limits the formation of product.

Now we have to calculate the moles of $HCl$ .

As, 1 mole of $BCl_3$ react to give 3 moles of $HCl$

So, 0.513 moles of $BCl_3$ react to give $3\times 0.513=1.539$ moles of $HCl$

Now we have to calculate the mass of $HCl$ .

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

$\text{Mass of }HCl=(1.539mole)\times (36.5g/mole)=56.1735g$

Therefore, the theoretical yield of HCl is, 56.1735 grams

When 24g of magnesium metal is heated in air, 40g of magnesium oxide is produced. What mass of magnesium would be needed in orde

inysia [295]

Answer: 6.1 g

Explanation:

between Mg and MgO theres a 1;1 MOLE RATIO

here's the balanced equation

2Mg + O2 ==> 2MgO

24g of magnesium is approximately 1 mole of magnesium so it produces 40 g of mgo which is also 1 mole of mgo thus 10/40 =0.25 moles of MgO so 0.25 moles of magnesium would be needed which is approximately 6.1 g
