A reaction between solid sulphur and oxygen produces sulfur dioxide. What is the percent yield for a reaction if you predicted t

he formation of 680g of sulfur dioxide and actually recovered only 384g?
Chemistry
1 answer:
Oduvanchick [21]3 years ago
3 0

Answer:

56.47%

Explanation:

In this question, we are given;

  • Theoretical yield of sulfur dioxide as 680 g
  • Actual yield of sulfur dioxide as 384 g

We are required to calculate the percent yield for the reaction;

  • We need to know how percent yield is calculated;
  • % yield = (Actual yield ÷ Theoretical yield) × 100%

Therefore;

In this case;

% yield = (384 g ÷ 680 g) × 100%

            = 56.47%

Thus, the percent yield for the reaction is 56.47%

What is the balanced chemical equation for the word equation below?
ladessa [460]

Answer:

4Fe + 3O₂ → 2Fe₂O₃

Explanation:

Fe → ²⁺

O → ²⁻

But Iron III is Fe³⁺

So we have Fe³⁺ and O²⁻, the formula for the oxide must be Fe₂O₃ so the equation can be:

4Fe + 3O₂ → 2Fe₂O₃

This is the equation for the combustion of propane.
yan [13]

Answer:

B

Explanation:

Reactants are the compounds which reaction produce the products. In general terms this can be expressed symbolically as follows:

reactants -> products

Other phenomena like heat are omitted because are not always present, that is, only compounds are included. Therefore, in this reaction the reactants are C3H8 (propane) and O2 ( oxygen) and the products are CO2 (carbon dioxide) and H2O (water)

Lead−206 is the end product of 238u decay. one 206pb atom has a mass of 205.974440 amu. (a) calculate the binding energy per nuc
Dovator [93]
The atomic number for Pb is 82
∴ Pb has 82 protons and 206-82 = 14 protons
The actual mass of Pb nuclei is
=(82 × mass of the proton) + (124 × mass of neutron)
=(82× 1.00728) + (124 × 1.008664) amu
= 207.6713 amu
The mass of lead which is given is 205.9744 amu
∴mass defect is
m = 207.6713 - 205.9744 = 1.6969 amu
=1.6969 × 1.66054 × 10⁻²⁷kg
=2.818 × 10⁻²⁷kg
The binding energy is E = mc²
C is the speed of light in vacuum = 2.9979 × 10⁸m/s
∴ E = 2.532 × 10×⁻¹⁰ J/mol
= 2.532 × 10⁻¹⁰ × 6.023 × 10²³ J/mol 
= 1.53811 × 10¹⁴ J/mol

Are these synthesis decomposition single replacement or double replacement?
marishachu [46]

Answer:

1. Synthesis

2. Decomposition

3. Single replacement

4. Synthesis

5. Decomposition

6. Synthesis

Explanation:

Kind of a hard picture to look at but let me define each chemical reaction:

Synthesis:

a + b ---> ab   In synthesis elements/compounds come together to form new                compounds

Decomposition:

ab ---> a + b   In decomposition a compound breaks down to form 2 elements/compounds

Single replacement:

a + bc ---> b + ac   In a single replacement one element/compound takes the place of another element/compound.

Double replacement

ab + cd ---> ad + bc In a double replacement 2 compounds exchange different elements/compounds.

Now, let's go through the assignment

1. P + O2 --> P4O10  This is a synthesis reaction because the two elements (P and O) came together to form one compound.

2. HgO ---> Hg + O2  This is a decomposition reaction because HgO broke into separate elements Hg and O.

3. Cl2 + NaBr ---> NaCl + Br2  This is a single replacement reaction because chlorine (Cl) replaced the spot of bromine (Br) to bond with sodium (Na).

4.  Mg + O2 ---> MgO  This is a synthesis reaction because two elements (Mg and O) came together to form one compound.

5. Al2O3 ---> Al + O2  This is a decomposition reactions because Al2O3 broke into separate elements Al and O.

6. H2 + N2 ---> NH3  This is a synthesis reaction because two elements (H and N) came together to form one compound.

What is the difference between the grassland and savanna biomes?
goblinko [34]

Answer:

C)Grassland biomes contain mostly grasses.

Explanation:

The main differences between a savanna biome and a grassland is that grasslands biomes contain mostly grasses.

Savanna are made up of both grasses and shrubs.

  • Savanna are a mix of grasslands with some scattered trees in the area.
  • Grasslands are open grass fields.
  • They do not contain much trees as such.
  • The savanna and grasslands are renowned for their fauna diversity of beasts.
