1.5 % is the percent yield in the reaction.

Explanation:

Given that:

original mass of the sample used in reaction = 1.897 grams

product formed after decomposition = 1.071 grams

The reaction for the decomposition:

Mg(HCO3)2 (s) ⇒ CO2 (g) + H2O (g) + MgCO2 (s)

It says that 1 mole of Mg(HCO3)2  yielded 1 mole of  MgCO2  on decomposition

68.31 grams/mole or 68.31 grams of MgCO2 is formed

percent yield = \frac{actual yield}{theoretical yield} x 100

putting the values in the equation:

percent yield = \frac{1.071}{68.31}

                       = 0.015 x100

   PERCENT YIELD = 1.5 %

If you have 10cm of snow with a volume of 40mL and a density of 0.5 g/mL how many inches of rain is this?
Lelu [443]

Density is the mass of compound divided by its volume can be shown as follows:

d = 0.5 g /mL = m /V = m /40 = 0.5

m = 20 g

40 mL of snow having 20 g of mass calculated from density.

Now, 10 cm of snow = 3.93 inches = 20 g  

As, 10 inches of rain will produce 11 inches of ice as the volume of ice is bigger than rain water.

10 inches rain = 11 inches snow

3.93 inches of snow produced by  

= (3.93 * 10) /11 = 3.57 inches rain.

Thus, 3.57 incehs of rain produces by 10 cm snow.

The relationship between moles and volume, when pressure and temperature of a gas are held constant, is: V/n =
Dvinal [7]

Answer:

If the moles of gas are tripled, the volume must also triple.

Explanation:

According to Avogadro law,

Equal volume of all the gases at same temperature and pressure have equal number of molecules.

The number of moles and volume are directly related to each other. By increasing the number of moles volume also goes to increase with same ratio.

When number of moles decreases the volume also goes to decrease at constant temperature and pressure.

Mathematical expression:

V ∝ n

V = Kn

V/n = k

When volume is changed from V₁ to V₂ by changing the number of moles from n₁ to n₂. Then expression will be,

V₁/n₁ = V₂/n₂

An energy of 6.8 x 10^-19 J/atom is required to cause an aluminum atom on a metal surface to lose an electron.
Nana76 [90]

Wavelength of the light is 2.9 × 10⁻⁷ m.

<u>Explanation:</u>

Planck - Einstein equation shows the relationship between the energy of a photon and its frequency, and they are directly proportional to each other and  it is given by the equation as E = hν,

where E is the energy of the photon

h is the Planck's constant = 6.626 × 10⁻³⁴ J s

ν is the frequency

From the above equation, we can find the frequency by rearranging the equation as,

ν = $ \frac{E}{h} = $ \frac{6.8 \times 10^{-19}}{6.626\times10^{-34}} = 1.03\times10^{15} s^{-1}

Now the frequency and the wavelength are in inverse relationship with each other.

ν × λ = c

It can be rearranged to get λ as,

λ = c / ν

 = $\frac{3\times 10^{8} ms^{-1}}{1.03\times10^{15}s^{-1}} = 2.9\times 10^{-7} m

So wavelength is 2.9 × 10⁻⁷ m.
