Answer:

0.120 L of hydrogen gas will be produced

Explanation:

Step 1: Data given

Mass of zinc = 10.0 grams

Volume of hydrochloric acid = 23.8 mL

Molarity of hydrochloric acid = 0.45 M

Molar mass of zinc =65.38 g/mol

Step 2: The balanced equation

Zn + 2HCl → ZnCl2 + H2

Step 3: Calculate moles Zinc

Moles Zn = mass Zn / molar mass Zn

Moles Zn = 10.0 grams / 65.38 g/mol

Moles Zn  =  0.153 moles

Step 4: Calculate moles HCl

Moles HCl = molarity * volume

Moles HCl = 0.45 M * 0.0238 L

Moles HCl = 0.01071 moles

Step 5: Calculate limiting reactant

For 1 mol Zn, we need 2 moles HCl to produce 1 mol ZnCl2 and 1 mol H2

HCl is the limiting reactant. It will completely be consumed (0.01071 moles)

Zn is in excess. There will react 0.01071/2 = 0.005355 moles

There will remain 0.153 - 0.005355 = 0.147645 moles

Step 6: Calculate moles H2

For 1 mol Zn, we need 2 moles HCl to produce 1 mol ZnCl2 and 1 mol H2

For 0.01071 moles HCl we'll have 0.005355 moles H2

Step 7: Calculate volume H2

1 mol at STP = 22.4 L

0.005355 moles = 22.4 * 0.005355 = 0.120 L = 120 mL

0.120 L of hydrogen gas will be produced

Determine % yield if a student obtains 45 g of product in an experiment and the theoretical amount is determined to be 50 g. *
ycow [4]

Answer:

90%

Explanation:

Percentage yield = ?

Theoretical yield = 50g

Actual yield = 45g

To calculate the percentage yield of a compound, we'll have to use the formula of percentage yield which is the ratio between the actual yield to theoretical multiplied by 100

Percentage yield = (actual yield / theoretical yield) × 100

Percentage yield = (45 / 50) × 100

Percentage yield = 0.9 × 100

Percentage yield = 90%

The percentage yield of the substance is 90%
