1.5 % is the percent yield in the reaction.
Explanation:
Given that:
original mass of the sample used in reaction = 1.897 grams
product formed after decomposition = 1.071 grams
The reaction for the decomposition:
Mg(HCO3)2 (s) ⇒ CO2 (g) + H2O (g) + MgCO2 (s)
It says that 1 mole of Mg(HCO3)2 yielded 1 mole of MgCO2 on decomposition
68.31 grams/mole or 68.31 grams of MgCO2 is formed
percent yield = 
x 100
putting the values in the equation:
percent yield = 
= 0.015 x100
PERCENT YIELD = 1.5 %
Iron has magnetic properties, so you would just need to hold a magnet over the mixture and the filings will come right out.
Answer:
1116 g.
Explanation:
The balanced equation for the reaction is given below:
4Na + O₂ —> 2Na₂O
From the balanced equation above,
1 mole of O₂ reacted to produce 2 moles of Na₂O.
Next, we shall determine the theoretical yield of Na₂O. This can be obtained as follow:
From the balanced equation above,
1 mole of O₂ reacted to produce 2 moles of Na₂O.
Therefore, 9 moles of O₂ will react to produce = 9 × 2 = 18 moles of Na₂O.
Finally, we shall determine the mass in 18 moles of Na₂O. This can be obtained as follow:
Mole of Na₂O = 18 moles
Molar mass of Na₂O = (23×2) + 16
= 46 + 16
= 62 g/mol
Mass of Na₂O =?
Mass = mole × molar mass
Mass of Na₂O = 18 × 62
Mass of Na₂O = 1116 g
Thus, the theoretical yield of Na₂O is 1116 g.
Answer:
Pb₂O₄
Explanation:
The given species are:
Pb⁴⁺ O²⁻
Now, to solve this problem, we use the combining powers which corresponds to the number of electrons usually lost or gained or shared by atoms during the course of a chemical combination.
Pb⁴⁺ O²⁻
Combining power 4 2
Exchange of valencies 2 4
Now the molecular formula is Pb₂O₄
