Answer:
C: The actual yield depends on the reaction conditions, but the theoretical yield varies only with reactant amounts
Explanation:
Looking at the options, the correct one is Option C because the actual yield usually depends on the conditions of the reaction, while the theoretical yield usually varies with only the amount of reactant.
Answer:
The third one makes the most sense
Iodic acid partially dissociates into H+ and IO3-
Assuming that x is the concentration of H+ at equilibrium, and sine the equation says the same amount of IO3- will be released as that of H+, its concentration is also X. The formation of H+ and IO3- results from the loss of HIO3 so its concentration at equilibrium is 0.20 M - x
Ka = [H+] [IO3-] / [HIO3];
<span>Initially, [H+] ≈ [IO3-] = 0 and [HIO3] = 0.20; </span>
<span>At equilibrium [H+] ≈ [IO3-] = x and [HIO3] = 0.20 - x; </span>
<span>so 0.17 = x² / (0.20 - x); </span>
<span>Solving for x using the quadratic formula: </span>
<span>x = [H+] = 0.063 M or pH = - log [H+] = 1.2.</span>
