Answer:

Theoretical yield = 2.5 g

Explanation:

Given data:

Mass of sodium = 79.7 g

Mass of water = 45.3 g

Theoretical yield of hydrogen gas = ?

Solution:

Chemical equation:

2Na + 2H₂O → 2NaOH + H₂

Number of moles of sodium:

Number of moles = mass/ molar mass

Number of moles = 79.7 g / 23 g/mol

Number of moles = 3.5 mol

Number of moles of water:

Number of moles = mass/ molar mass

Number of moles = 45.3 g / 18g/mol

Number of moles = 2.5 mol

Now we will compare the moles of hydrogen gas with water and sodium.

                        H₂O           :             H₂

                           2             :              1

                          2.5           :            1/2×2.5 =1.25 mol

                     

                           Na           :              H₂

                             2            :               1

                           3.5           :             1/2×3.5 =1.75 mol

water will be limiting reactant.

Theoretical yield:

Mass = number of moles × molar mass

Mass =  1.25 mol  × 2 g/mol

Mass = 2.5 g

snow_lady [41]
The answer is (2) equal to. In redox reactions, you can't just lose electrons somewhere. If an electrons is lost by one, it must be gained by another. Hence, the importance of balancing redox reactions.

mestny [16]

Answer:

3Ca₍s₎ + 2FeCl₃ ------------------------------------------------------------->  3CaCl₂ + 2Fe₍s₎.

Explanation:

Iron(III) chloride is also known as Iron trichloride and it has the molar mass value of 162.2 g/mol and density of 2.9 g/cm³.

<em>The balanced equation for the chemical reaction between solid calcium and iron (III) chloride is given below as:  </em>

<em />

3Ca₍s₎ + 2FeCl₃ ------------------------------------------------------------->  3CaCl₂ + 2Fe₍s₎.

This kind of chemical reaction is known as <em>single displacement reaction or single replacement reaction. </em>

The balanced reaction between aqueous nitric acid and aqueous strontium hydroxide is _________
umka2103 [35]

Answer:

2HNO_3(aq)+Sr(OH)_2(aq)\rightarrow Sr(NO_3)_2(aq)+2H_2O(l)

Explanation:

Hello,

In this case, since nitric acid is HNO₃ and strontium hydroxide is Sr(OH)₂ we can represent the balanced chemical reaction by equaling the atoms of strontium, nitrogen, oxygen and hydrogen at both reactants and products as shown below:

2HNO_3(aq)+Sr(OH)_2(aq)\rightarrow Sr(NO_3)_2(aq)+2H_2O(l)

Best regards.
