Answer:

2.26 g

Explanation:

Data given:

mass of Sulfuric acid = 3.24 g

mass of Aluminum hydroxide = 0.945 g

Theoretical  yield of Aluminum sulfate = ?

Solution:

First we look for the balance reaction

Reaction

     3H₂SO₄ +  2Al(OH)₃ ----------> Al₂(SO₄)₃ + 6H₂O

Now we look for the limiting reactant on which the amount of aluminum sulfate depends

So,

       3H₂SO₄ +  2Al(OH)₃ ----------> Al₂(SO₄)₃ + 6H₂O

       3 mol          2 mol

from above reaction it is clear that 3 mole of H₂SO₄ combine with 2 mole of Al(OH)₃

Convert moles to mass

  • molar mass of Al(OH)₃  

molar mass of Al(OH)₃  =  27 + 3(16 + 1)

molar mass of Al(OH)₃  = 27 + 45

molar mass of Al(OH)₃  =72 g/mol

  • molar mass of H₂SO₄

molar mass of H₂SO₄ = 2(1) + 32 + 4(16)

molar mass of H₂SO₄ = 2 + 32 + 64

molar mass of H₂SO₄ = 98 g/mol

So,

      3H₂SO₄         +      2Al(OH)₃     ---------->   Al₂(SO₄)₃ + 6H₂O

   3 mol (98 g/mol)    2 mol (72 g/mol)

        294 g                      144 g

So its clear from the reaction that  294 g of H₂SO₄ react with 144 g of Al(OH)₃

now if we look at the given amounts the amount Al(OH)₃ is less then the amount of H₂SO₄

So, for Al(OH)₃ if we calculate the needed amount of H₂SO₄

So apply unity formula

            294 g H₂SO₄ ≅ 144 g of Al(OH)₃

             X g H₂SO₄ ≅ 0.945 of Al(OH)₃

Do cross multiplication

            X g H₂SO₄ = 294 g x 0.945 g / 144 g

            X g of H₂SO₄ ≅ 1.93 g

So, 1.93 g of H₂SO₄ will react out of 3.24 grams, the remaining amount of it will be in excess.

So,

Al(OH)₃ will be consumed completely an it will be limiting reactant.

-----------

Now to Calculate for the theoretical yield

First we look for the balance reaction

Reaction

     3H₂SO₄ +  2Al(OH)₃ ----------> Al₂(SO₄)₃ + 6H₂O

Now we look for the mole mole ration of Al(OH)₃ to the amount of aluminum sulfate produced

So,

       3H₂SO₄ +  2Al(OH)₃ ----------> Al₂(SO₄)₃ + 6H₂O

                          2 mol                       1 mole

from above reaction it is clear that 1 mole of Al₂(SO₄)₃ produce by 2 mole of Al(OH)₃

As we know that

2 mole of Al(OH)₃ = 144 g

So,

if 144 g of Al(OH)₃ gives 1 mole Al₂(SO₄)₃  then how many moles of Al₂(SO₄)₃  will be produces by 0.945 g Al(OH)₃

So apply unity formula

            144 g of Al(OH)₃ ≅ 1 mole of Al₂(SO₄)₃

            0.945 g of Al(OH)₃ ≅ X mole of Al₂(SO₄)₃

Do cross multiplication

           X mole of Al₂(SO₄)₃ = 0.945 g  x 1 mole / 144 g

            X mole of Al₂(SO₄)₃ = 0.0066 moles

So,

0.945 g of  Al(OH)₃ produce 0.0066 mole of Al₂(SO₄)₃

Now conver moles of Al₂(SO₄)₃ to mass

Formula used:

       mass in grams = no. of moles x molar mass . . . . . . (1)

  • molar mass of Al₂(SO₄)₃  

molar mass of Al₂(SO₄)₃ =  2(27) + 3(32 +4(16))

molar mass of Al₂(SO₄)₃ = 54 + 3 (32 +64)

molar mass of Al₂(SO₄)₃ = 54 + 3 (96)

molar mass of Al₂(SO₄)₃ = 54 + 288

molar mass of Al₂(SO₄)₃  =342 g/mol

Put values in equation 1

        mass in grams = 0.0066 g x 342 g/mol

        mass in grams = 2.26 g

So the theoretical yield of Aluminum sulfate (Al₂(SO₄)₃ ) is 2.26 g

Consider the following reaction: A(g)⇌2B(g). Find the equilibrium partial pressures of A and B for each of the following differe
Illusion [34]

Answer:

a. Kp=1.4

P_{A}=0.2215 atm

P_{B}=0.556 atm

b.Kp=2.0 * 10^-4

P_{A}=0.495atm

P_{B}=0.00995 atm

c.Kp=2.0 * 10^5

P_{A}=5*10^{-6}atm

P_{B}=0.9999 atm

Explanation:

For the reaction  

A(g)⇌2B(g)

Kp is defined as:

Kp=\frac{(P_{B})^{2}}{P_{A}}

The conditions in the system are:

          A                    B

initial   0                1 atm

equilibrium x       1atm-2x

At the beginning, we don’t have any A in the system, so B starts to react to produce A until the system reaches the equilibrium producing x amount of A. From the stoichiometric relationship in the reaction we get that to produce x amount of A we need to 2x amount of B so in the equilibrium we will have 1 atm – 2x of B, as it is showed in the table.    

Replacing these values in the expression for Kp we get:

Kp=\frac{(1-2x)^{2}}{x}

Working with this equation:

x*Kp=(1-2x)^{2} - -> x*Kp=4x^{2}-4x+1- - >4x^{2}-(4+Kp)*x+1=0

This last expression is quadratic expression with a=4, b=-(4+Kp) and c=1

The general expression to solve these kinds of equations is:

x=\frac{-b(+-)*\sqrt{(b^{2}-4ac)}}{2a} (equation 1)

We just take the positive values from the solution since negative partial pressures don´t make physical sense.

Kp = 1.4

x_{1}=\frac{(1.4+4)+\sqrt{(-(1.4+4)^{2}-4*4*1)}}{2*4}=1.128

x_{1}=\frac{(1.4+4)-\sqrt{(-(1.4+4)^{2}-4*4*1)}}{2*4}=0.2215

With x1 we get a partial pressure of:

P_{A}=1.128 atm

P_{B}=1-2*1.128 = -1.256 atm

Since negative partial pressure don´t make physical sense x1 is not the solution for the system.

With x2 we get:

P_{A}=0.2215 atm

P_{B}=1-2*0.2215 = 0.556 atm

These partial pressures make sense so x2 is the solution for the equation.

We follow the same analysis for the other values of Kp.

Kp=2*10^-4

X1=0.505

X2=0.495

With x1

P_{A}=0.505atm

P_{B}=1-2*0.505 = -0.01005 atm

Not sense.

With x2

P_{A}=0.495atm

P_{B}=1-2*0.495 = 0.00995 atm

X2 is the solution for this equation.  

Kp=2*10^5

X1=50001

X2=5*10^{-6}

With x1

P_{A}=50001atm

P_{B}=1-2*50001=-100001atm

Not sense.

With x2

P_{A}= 5*10^{-6}atm

P_{B}=1-2*5*10^{-6}= 0.9999 atm

X2 is the solution for this equation.

Explain the reason for low melting and boiling point of a covalent compound ​
mylen [45]

Answer:

Covalent compounds have weak forces of attraction between the binding molecules. Thus less energy is required to break the force of bonding. Therefore covalent compounds have low melting and boiling point.
