Why is a molecule of CO2 nonpolar even though the bonds between the carbon atom and the oxygen atoms are polar?

The answer is 1. Carbon dioxide has two covalent bonds amid every oxygen atom and the carbon atom. When molecules are balanced, though, the atoms pull similarly on the electrons and the control distribution is uniform. Symmetrical molecules are therefore nonpolar.

Chromium(III) oxide can be prepared by heating chromium(IV) oxide in vacuo at high temperature: 4Cr02 —2Cr2O3 +02 The reaction o

kkurt [141]

Answer: The theoretical yield and percent yield of chromium (III) oxide is 434.72 grams and 92.6 % respectively.

Explanation:

To calculate the number of moles, we use the equation:

$\text{Number of moles}=\frac{\text{Given mass}}{\text{Molar mass}}$ .....(1)

Given mass of $CrO_2$ = 480.1 g

Molar mass of $CrO_2$ = 84 g/mol

Putting values in equation 1, we get:

$\text{Moles of }CrO_2=\frac{480.1g}{84g/mol}=5.72mol$

For the given chemical equation:

$4CrO_2\rightarrow 2Cr_2O_3+O_2$

By Stoichiometry of the reaction:

4 moles of $CrO_2$ produces 2 moles of chromium (III) oxide

So, 5.72 moles of $CrO_2$ will produce = $\frac{2}{4}\times 5.72=2.86mol$ of chromium (III) oxide

Now, calculating the mass of chromium (III) oxide from equation 1, we get:

Molar mass of chromium (III) oxide = 152 g/mol

Moles of chromium (III) oxide = 2.86 moles

Putting values in equation 1, we get:

$2.86mol=\frac{\text{Mass of chromium (III) oxide}}{152g/mol}\\\\\text{Mass of chromium (III) oxide}=(2.86mol\times 152g/mol)=434.72g$

To calculate the percentage yield of chromium (III) oxide, we use the equation:

$\%\text{ yield}=\frac{\text{Experimental yield}}{\text{Theoretical yield}}\times 100$

Experimental yield of chromium (III) oxide = 402.4 g

Theoretical yield of chromium (III) oxide = 434.72 g

Putting values in above equation, we get:

$\%\text{ yield of chromium (III) oxide}=\frac{402.4g}{434.72g}\times 100\\\\\% \text{yield of chromium (III) oxide}=\%$

Hence, the theoretical yield and percent yield of chromium (III) oxide is 434.72 grams and 92.6 % respectively.
