Answer:

The answer to your question is:  yield = 81 %

Explanation:

Data

Calcium oxide mass = 2 g

Calcium hydroxide mass = 2.14 g

yield = ?

Process

Reaction

                     CaO   +   H₂O    ⇒     Ca(OH)₂

MW CaO = 40 + 16 = 56 g

MW Ca(OH)₂ = 40 + 32 + 2 = 74 g

                  56 g of CaO -----------------   74 g of Ca(OH)₂

                  2 g                ----------------    x

                 x = (2 x 74)/ 56

                 x = 2.64 g of  Ca(OH)₂

yield = experimental / theoretical x 100

yield = 2.14 / 2.64 x 100

yield = 81 %

The diagram below represents the four stars of matter. Which diagram represents a gas that has been ionized
lara [203]

Answer: Diagram 4

Explanation: Diagram 1 represents a state in which particles are closely packed , thus cannot be a representation of gas.

Diagram 2 represents  a state in which particles are loosely packed , thus can be a representation of gas.

Diagram 3 represents  a state in which particles are closely packed , thus can be a representation of a solid.

Diagram 4 represents  a state in which particles are loosely packed , thus can be a representation of gas. It also represents the particles in ionized form. Particles are existing as ions bearing positive and negative charges.

If total pressure of multiple gases is 512 mmHg, and the pressure of oxygen gas is 332 mmHg and the pressure of carbon monoxide
deff fn [24]

Answer: 67 mmHg

Explanation:

According to Dalton's Gas Law, the total pressure of a mixture of gases is the sum of the pressure of each individual gas.

i.e Ptotal = P1 + P2 + P3 + .......

In this case,

Ptotal = 512 mmHg

P(oxygen) = 332 mmHg

P(carbon mono-oxide) = 113 mmHg

Remaining pressure (P3) = ?

To get P3, apply Dalton's Gas Law formula

Ptotal = P(oxygen) + P(carbon mono-oxide) + P3

512 mmHg = 332 mmHg + 113 mmHg + P3

512 mmHg = 445 mmHg + P3

P3 = 512 mmHg - 445 mmHg

P3 = 67 mmHg

Thus, the remaining pressure is 67 mmHg
