What is the diffrence between acidic and basic solutions in working with redox reactions?

A student reacts 5.0 g of sodium with 10.0 g of chlorine and collect 5.24 g of sodium chloride. What is the percent yield of thi

Ede4ka [16]

Answer: The percent yield of this combination reaction is 41.3 %

Explanation : Given,

Mass of $Na$ = 5.0 g

Mass of $Cl_2$ = 10.0 g

Molar mass of $Na$ = 23 g/mol

Molar mass of $Cl_2$ = 71 g/mol

First we have to calculate the moles of $Na$ and $Cl_2$ .

$\text{Moles of }Na=\frac{\text{Given mass }Na}{\text{Molar mass }Na}$

$\text{Moles of }Na=\frac{5.0g}{23g/mol}=0.217mol$

and,

$\text{Moles of }Cl_2=\frac{\text{Given mass }Cl_2}{\text{Molar mass }Cl_2}$

$\text{Moles of }Cl_2=\frac{10.0g}{71g/mol}=0.141mol$

Now we have to calculate the limiting and excess reagent.

The balanced chemical equation will be:

$2Na+Cl_2\rightarrow 2NaCl$

From the balanced reaction we conclude that

As, 2 mole of $Na$ react with 1 mole of $Cl_2$

So, 0.217 moles of $Na$ react with $\frac{0.217}{2}=0.108$ moles of $Cl_2$

From this we conclude that, $Cl_2$ is an excess reagent because the given moles are greater than the required moles and $Na$ is a limiting reagent and it limits the formation of product.

Now we have to calculate the moles of $NaCl$

From the reaction, we conclude that

As, 2 mole of $Na$ react to give 2 mole of $NaCl$

So, 0.217 mole of $HCl$ react to give 0.217 mole of $NaCl$

Now we have to calculate the mass of $NaCl$

$\text{ Mass of }NaCl=\text{ Moles of }NaCl\times \text{ Molar mass of }NaCl$

Molar mass of $NaCl$ = 58.5 g/mole

$\text{ Mass of }NaCl=(0.217moles)\times (58.5g/mole)=12.7g$

Now we have to calculate the percent yield of this reaction.

Percent yield = $\frac{\text{Actual yield}}{\text{Theoretical yield}}\times 100$

Actual yield = 5.24 g

Theoretical yield = 12.7 g

Percent yield = $\frac{5.24g}{12.7g}\times 100$

Percent yield = 41.3 %

Therefore, the percent yield of this combination reaction is 41.3 %

katovenus [111]

Water combines with carbon dioxide to produce slightly acidic groundwater

that dissolves limestone and forms caves.

This is because the reaction between water and carbondioxide to form

bicarbonate ions( HCO₃⁻). The bicarbonate ions dissociate into Hydrogen

atoms thereby increasing the acidity.

The acidic environment results in the formation of acidic groundwater that

dissolves limestone and forms caves.

SOVA2 [1]

initial volume of the argon sample = 5.93L according to Boyle's law

What is Boyle's law ?

Boyle's law, also known as Mariotte's law, is a relationship describing how a gas will compress and expand at a constant temperature. The pressure (p) of a given quantity of gas changes inversely with its volume (v) at constant temperature, according to this empirical connection, which was established by the physicist Robert Boyle in 1662. In equation form, this means that pv = k, a constant.

According to Boyle's law

P1/V1 = P2/V2

P1 = initial pressure

P2 = final pressure

V1 =initial volume

V2= final volume

V1 = P1*V2/P2

V1 = 2.32*18.3/7.16 = 5.93L

initial volume of the argon sample = 5.93L according to Boyle's law

Which of the following lists elements in order of increasing malleability?

hodyreva [135]

Malleability is the property due to which substances tend to hammered into thin sheets when pressure is applied. Malleability is observed in metal as the metal atoms are bound by metallic bonds. The layers of metal atoms can roll over each other without breaking the metal bond when pressure is applied. In the periodic table malleability decreases as the metallic nature decreases. Among the given metals Al is the most metallic element, followed by Zinc an Carbon is a non metal. Therefore, the order of increasing malleability will be C, Zn, Al
