The correct answer is A I believe!
Answer:
73.4% is the percent yield
Explanation:
2KClO₃ → 2KCl + 3O₂
This is a decomposition reaction, where 2 moles of potassium chlorate decompose to 2 moles of potassium chloride and 3 moles of oxygen.
We determine the moles of salt: 400 g . 1. mol /122.5g= 3.26 moles of KClO₃
In the theoretical yield of the reaction we say:
2 moles of potassium chlorate can produce 3 moles of oxygen
Therefore, 3.26 moles of salt, may produce (3.26 . 3) /2 = 4.89 moles of O₂
The mass of produced oxygen is: 4.89 mol . 32 g /1mol = 156.6g
But, we have produced 115 g. Let's determine the percent yield of reaction
Percent yield = (Produced yield/Theoretical yield) . 100
(115g / 156.6g) . 100 = 73.4 %
The resulting pressure of the gas after decreasing the initial volume from 2 L to 1 L is 3 atm.
<h3>What is
Boyle's Law?</h3>
According to the Boyle's Law at constant temperature, pressure of the gas is inversely proportional to the volume of that gas.
For the given question we use the below equation is:
P₁V₁ = P₂V₂, where
P₁ = initial pressure of gas = 1.5 atm
V₁ = initial volume of gas = 2 L
P₂ = final pressure of gas = ?
V₂ = final volume of gas = 1 L
On putting all these values on the above equation, we get
P₂ = (1.5atm)(2L) / (1L) = 3 atm
Hence required pressure of the gas is 3 atm.
