Mr. Ragusa asks Hassan to make silver crystals from the following reaction.

SVEN [57.7K]

Answer:

Percentage yield = 61.7%

Explanation:

We'll begin by writing the balanced equation for the reaction. This is illustrated:

2AgNO₃ + Cu —> Cu(NO₃)₂ + 2Ag

Next, we shall determine the mass of AgNO₃ that reacted and the mass of Ag produced from the balanced equation. This is illustrated below:

Molar mass of AgNO₃ = 108 + 14 + (16×3)

= 108 + 14 + 48

= 170 g/mol

Mass of AgNO₃ from the balanced equation = 2 × 170 = 340 g

Molar mass of Ag = 108 g/mol

Mass of Ag from the balanced equation = 2 × 108 = 216 g

SUMMARY:

From the balanced equation above,

340 g of AgNO₃ reacted to produce 216 g of Ag.

Next, we shall determine the theoretical yield of Ag. This can be obtained as follow:

From the balanced equation above,

340 g of AgNO₃ reacted to produce 216 g of Ag.

Therefore, 51 g of AgNO₃ will react to produce = (51 × 216)/340 = 32.4 g of Ag.

Thus, the theoretical yield of Ag is 32.4 g.

Finally, we shall determine the percentage yield of Ag. This can be obtained as follow:

Actual yield = 20 g

Theoretical yield = 32.4 g

Percentage yield =?

Percentage yield = Actual yield /Theoretical yield × 100

Percentage yield = 20 / 32.4 × 100

Percentage yield = 61.7%

Given the two reactions PbCl2(aq)⇌Pb2+(aq)+2Cl−(aq), K3 = 1.85×10−10, and AgCl(aq)⇌Ag+(aq)+Cl−(aq), K4 = 1.17×10−4, what is the

kramer

Answer:

The equilibrium constant of the given reaction is 0.01351.

Explanation:

$PbCl_2(aq)\rightleftharpoons Pb^{2+}(aq)+2Cl^-(aq)$

The equilibrium constant of the reaction = $K_3=1.85\times 10^{-10}$

$K_3=\frac{[Pb^{2+}][Cl^-]^2}{[PbCl_2]}$ ...[1]

$AgCl(aq)\rightleftharpoons Ag^{+}(aq)+Cl^-(aq)$

The equilibrium constant of the reaction = $K_4=1.17\times 10^{-4}$

$K_4=\frac{[Ag^+][Cl^-]}{[AgCl]}$ ..[2]

$[Cl^-]=\frac{K_4\times [AgCl]}{[Ag^+]}$

$PbCl_2(aq)+2Ag^+(aq)\rightleftharpoons 2AgCl(aq)+Pb^{2+}(aq)$

The expression of equilibrium constant of the creation is ;

$K=\frac{[AgCl]^2[Pb^{2}]}{[PbCl_2]][Ag^+]^2}$

Dividing [1] by [2]

$\frac{K_3}{K_4}=\frac{\frac{[Pb^{2+}][Cl^-]^2}{[PbCl_2]}}{\frac{[Ag^+][Cl^-]}{[AgCl]}}$

$\frac{K_3}{K_4}=\frac{[Pb^{2+}][Cl^-][AgCl]}{[PbCl_2][Ag^+]}$

Substituting the value of $[Cl^-]$ from [2] :

$\frac{K_3}{K_4}=\frac{[Pb^{2+}][AgCl]}{[PbCl_2][Ag^+]}\times \frac{K_4\times [AgCl]}{[Ag^+]}$

$\frac{K_3}{K_4}=K_4\times K$

$K=\frac{K_3}{(K_4)^2}=\frac{1.85\times 10^{-10}}{(1.17\times 10^{-4})^2}$

$K=0.01351$

The equilibrium constant of the given reaction is 0.01351.

Why does the surface of the oocyte change when the first sperm cell touches the oocyte?

Anestetic [448]

To prevent more than one sperm from entering the egg.

What is oocyte?

An oocyte , or ovocyte is a female gametocyte or germ cell involved in reproduction. In other words, it is an immature ovum, or egg cell. An oocyte is produced in a female fetus in the ovary during female gametogenesis. The female germ cells produce a primordial germ cell (PGC), which then undergoes mitosis, forming oogonia. During oogenesis, the oogonia become primary oocytes. An oocyte is a form of genetic material that can be collected for cryoconservation.

When the sperm and egg fuse it triggers a release of calcium ions, which cause the cortical granules inside the egg to fuse with the plasma membrane. As they fuse, these granules release their contents outside of the cell, toward the remains of the zona pellucida.

Demonstrate In A Brief Paragraph How The Search To Explain Planetary Orbits Exemplifies The Scientific Method

Sveta_85 [38]

People firstly believe that the planets move in a circular orbit until Newton came up with his hypothesis by inventing calculus so that we could understood and calculated planetary orbits and their accuracy.

<u>Explanation:</u>

Everyone assumed the planets were perfect circles until Newton came up with an idea. Slowly people would make maps of the orbits that added circles on circles, and they could never really explain about the movement of the planet. They simply say that planets move on circles but they lacked the math to explain or prove it. Then Newton came up with an idea of inventing calculus so that we could understood and calculated planetary orbits and their accuracy.

Firstly people used their observations and say that the orbits looked like circles, then they developed their models and did the math, and proposed their hypothesizes which were wrong, until Newton came along and tried to match a model that used elliptical orbits and invented the math that allowed him to make predictions with it. His model worked for most planets.

However he could not explain about the planet Mercury for instance since it was a very strange orbit. Then after the Einstein's theory of General Relativity he could also explain very deeply about it.

Scientists and Astronomers made hypothesizes that there was another planet orbiting too close to the sun to see with telescopes, called Vulcan, that explained mercury's orbit before Einstein's theory. Then long after we had telescopes which was good enough to see if there was a planet orbiting closer to the sun than mercury.
