Hydrogen gas (a potential future fuel) can be formed by the reaction of methane with water according to the following equation:

CH4(g)+H2O(g)→CO(g)+3H2(g) In a particular reaction, 26.0 L of methane gas (measured at a pressure of 734 torr and a temperature of 25 ∘C) is mixed with 23.0 L of water vapor (measured at a pressure of 700 torr and a temperature of 125 ∘C). The reaction produces 26.0 L of hydrogen gas measured at STP. Part A What is the percent yield of the reaction? %

Answer:

60.42% is the percent yield of the reaction.

Explanation:

Moles of methane gas at 734 Torr and a temperature of 25 °C.

Volume of methane gas = V = 26.0 L

Pressure of the methane gas = P = 734 Torr = 0.9542 atm

Temperature of the methane gas = T = 25 °C = 298.15 K

Moles of methane gas = n

PV=nRT

n=\frac{PV}{RT}=\frac{0.9542 atm\times 26.0L}{0.0821 atm L/mol K\times 298.15 K}=1.0135 mol

Moles of water vapors at 700 Torr and a temperature of 125 °C.

Volume of water vapor = V' = 23.0 L

Pressure of water vapor = P' = 700 Torr = 0.9100 atm

Temperature of  water vapor = T' = 125 °C = 398.15 K

Moles of water vapor gas = n'

P'V'=n'RT'

n'=\frac{PV}{RT}=\frac{0.9100 atm\times 23.0L}{0.0821 atm L/mol K\times 398.15 K}=0.6402 mol

CH_4(g)+H_2O(g)\rightarrow CO(g)+3H_2(g)

According to reaction , 1 mol of methane reacts with 1 mol of water vapor. As we can see that moles of water vapors are in lessor amount which means it is a limiting reagent and formation of hydrogen gas will depend upon moles of water vapors.

According to reaction 1 mol of water vapor gives 3 moles of hydrogen gas.

Then 0.6402 moles of water vapor will give:

\frac{3}{1}\times 0.6402 mol=1.9208 mol of hydrogen gas

Moles of hydrogen gas obtained theoretically = 1.9208 mol

The reaction produces 26.0 L of hydrogen gas measured at STP.

At STP, 1 mole of gas occupies 22.4 L of volume.

Then 26 L of volume of gas will be occupied by:

\frac{1}{22.4 L}\times 26 L= 1.1607 mol

Moles of hydrogen gas obtained experimentally = 1.1607 mol

Percentage yield of hydrogen gas of the reaction:

\frac{Experimental}{Theoretical}\times 100

\%=\frac{ 1.1607 mol}{1.9208 mol}\times 100=60.42\%

60.42% is the percent yield of the reaction.

Answer:

Part 1: 7.42 mL; Part 2: 3Cu²⁺(aq) + 2PO₄³⁻(aq) ⟶ 2Cu₃(PO₄)₂(s)

Explanation:

Part 1. Volume of reactant

(a) Balanced chemical equation.

\rm 2Na_{3}PO_{4} + 3CuCl_{2} \longrightarrow Cu_{3}(PO_{4})_{2} + 6NaCl

(b) Moles of CuCl₂

\text{Moles of CuCl}_{2} =\text{ 16.7 mL CuCl}_{2} \times \dfrac{\text{0.200 mmol CCl}_{2}}{\text{1 mL CuCl}_{2}} =  \text{3.340 mmol CuCl}_{2}

(c) Moles of Na₃PO₄

The molar ratio is 2 mmol Na₃PO₄:3 mmol CuCl₂

\text{Moles of Na$_{3}$PO}_{4} =  \text{3.340 mmol CuCl}_{2} \times \dfrac{\text{2 mmol Na$_{3}$PO}_{4}}{\text{3 mmol CuCl}_{2}} =\text{2.227 mmol Na$_{3}$PO}_{4}

(d) Volume of Na₃PO₄

V = \text{2.227 mmol Na$_{3}$PO}_{4}\times \dfrac{\text{1 mL Na$_{3}$PO}_{4}}{\text{0.300 mmol Na$_{3}$PO}_{4}} = \text{7.42 mL Na$_{3}$PO}_{4} \\\\\text{The reaction requires $\large \boxed{\textbf{7.42 mL Na$_{3}$PO}_{4}}$}

Part 2. Net ionic equation

(a) Molecular equation

\rm 2Na_{3}PO_{4}(\text{aq}) + 3CuCl_{2}(\text{aq}) \longrightarrow Cu_{3}(PO_{4})_{2}(\text{s}) + 6NaCl(\text{aq})

(b) Ionic equation

You write molecular formulas for the solids, and you write the soluble ionic substances as ions.

According to the solubility rules, metal phosphates are insoluble.

6Na⁺(aq) + 2PO₄³⁻(aq) + 3Cu²⁺(aq) + 6Cl⁻(aq) ⟶ Cu₃(PO₄)₂(s) + 6Na⁺(aq) + 6Cl⁻(aq)  

(c) Net ionic equation

To get the net ionic equation, you cancel the ions that appear on each side of the ionic equation.

<u>6Na⁺(aq)</u> + 2PO₄³⁻(aq) + 3Cu²⁺(aq) + <u>6Cl⁻(aq)</u> ⟶ Cu₃(PO₄)₂(s) + <u>6Na⁺(aq)</u> + <u>6Cl⁻(aq)</u>  

The net ionic equation is

3Cu²⁺(aq) + 2PO₄³⁻(aq) ⟶ Cu₃(PO₄)₂(s)

Water vapor is condensed steam. <br><br> True <br> False
adelina 88 [10]

False, because water vapor, water vapour or aqueous vapor, is the gaseous phase of water. It is one state of water within the hydrosphere. Water vapor can be produced from the evaporation or boiling of liquid water or from the sublimation of ice. Unlike other forms of water, water vapor is invisible.
