Ummm I think it is C. ( not sure)
Crystallization metamorphism sedimentation and erosion
<span>the theoretical yield which is the expected yield and the actual yield obtained are not always the same. therefore percent yield is calculated which shows how much of the percentage of the theoretical yield is actually obtained.
the theoretical yield = 56.0 g
actual yield = 47.0 g
percent yield = actual yield / theoretical yield x 100 %
percent yield = 47.0 / 56.0 x 100% = 83.9 %
percent yield = 83.9 %</span>
Answer:
"Hydrogen is still available outside the core, so hydrogen fusion continues in a shell surrounding the core. The increasingly hot core also pushes the outer layers of the star outward, causing them to expand and cool, transforming the star into a red giant."
CxHy + O2 --> x CO2 + y/2 H2O
Find the moles of CO2 : 18.9g / 44 g/mol = .430 mol CO2 = .430 mol of C in compound
Find the moles of H2O: 5.79g / 18 g/mol = .322 mol H2O = .166 mol of H in compound
Find the mass of C and H in the compound:
.430mol x 12 = 5.16 g C
.166mol x 1g = .166g H
When you add these up they indicate a mass of 5.33 g for the compound, not 5.80g as you stated in the problem.
Therefore it is likely that either the mass of the CO2 or the mass of H20 produced is incorrect (most likely a typo).
In any event, to find the formula, you would take the moles of C and H and convert to a whole number ratio (this is usually done by dividing both of them by the smaller value).
