Answer:

HCl is the limiting reactant.

20.2 grams = theoretical yield Cl2

actual yield = 16.75 grams Cl2

Explanation:

Step 1: Data given

Mass of MnO2 = 43.5 grams

Molar mass MnO2 = 86.94 g/mol

Mass of HCl = 41.5 grams

Molar mass HCl = 36.46 g/mol

Step 2: The balanced equation

4HCl(aq)+MnO2(s)⟶MnCl2(aq)+2H2O(l)+Cl2(g)

Step 3: Calculate moles

Moles = mass / molar mass

Moles MnO2 = 43.5 grams / 86.94 g/mol

Moles MnO2 =  0.500 moles

Moles HCl = 41.5 grams / 36.46 g/mol

Moles HCl = 1.14 moles

Step 4: Calculate the limiting reactant

For 4 moles HCl we need 1 mol MnO2 to produce 1 mol MnCl2, 2 moles H2O and 1 mol Cl2

HCl is the limiting reactant. I will completely be consumed (1.14 moles).

MnO2 is in excess. There will react 1.14 /4 = 0.285 moles

There will remain 0.500 - 0.285 = 0.215 moles MnO2

Step 5: Calculate moles Cl2

For 4 moles HCl we need 1 mol MnO2 to produce 1 mol MnCl2, 2 moles H2O and 1 mol Cl2

For 1.14 moles HCl we'll have 1.14/4 = 0.285 moles Cl2

Step 6: Calculate mass Cl2

Mass Cl2 = moles Cl2 * molar mass Cl2

Mass Cl2 = 0.285 moles * 70.9 g/mol

Mass Cl2 = 20.2 grams = theoretical yield

Step 7: Calculate actual yield

% yield = (actual yield / theoretical yield) *100%

0.829 = actual yield / 20.2 grams

actual yield = 0.829 * 20.2 grams

actual yield = 16.75 grams Cl2

Put the steps in the process of photosynthesis in order
shepuryov [24]

Step 1-Light Dependent

CO2 and H2O enter the leaf

Step 2- Light Dependent

Light hits the pigment in the membrane of a thylakoid, splitting the H2O into O2

Step 3- Light Dependent

The electrons move down to enzymes

Step 4-Light Dependent

Sunlight hits the second pigment molecule allowing the enzymes to convert ADP to ATP and NADP+ gets converted to NADPH

Step 5-Light independent

The ATP and NADPH is used by the calvin cycle as a power source for converting carbon dioxide from the atmosphere into simple sugar glucose.

Step 6-Light independent

The calvin cycle converts 3CO2 molecules from the atmosphere to glucose

calvin cycle

The second of two major stages in photosynthesis (following the light reactions), involving atmospheric CO2 fixation and reduction of the fixed carbon into carbohydrate.

A calorimeter contains 100 g of water at 39.8 ºC. A 8.23 g object at 50 ºC is placed inside the calorimeter. When equilibrium ha
Tju [1.3M]
When equilibrium has been reached so, according to this formula we can get the specific heat of the unknown metal and from it, we can define the metal as each metal has its specific heat:

Mw*Cw*ΔTw = Mm*Cm*ΔTm

when 
Mw → mass of water
Cw → specific heat of water
ΔTw → difference in temperature for water 

Mm→ mass of metal
Cw→ specific heat of the metal
ΔTm → difference in temperature for metal

by substitution:

100g * 4.18 * (40-39.8) = 8.23 g * Cm * (50-40)

∴ Cm = 83.6 / 82.3 = 1.02 J/g.°C

when the Cm of the Magnesium ∴ the unknown metal is Mg

Hydrofluoric acid and Water react to form fluoride anion and hydronium cation, like this HF(aq) + H_2O(l) rightarrow F(aq) + H_3
maksim [4K]

Answer:

Kc = 1.09x10⁻⁴

Explanation:

<em>HF = 1.62g</em>

<em>H₂O = 516g</em>

<em>F⁻ = 0.163g</em>

<em>H₃O⁺ = 0.110g</em>

<em />

To solve this question we need to find the moles of each reactant in order to solve the molar concentration of each reactan and replacing in the Kc expression. For the reaction, the Kc is:

Kc = [H₃O⁺] [F⁻] / [HF]

<em>Because Kc is defined as the ratio between concentrations of products over reactants powered to its reaction coefficient. Pure liquids as water are not taken into account in Kc expression:</em>

<em />

[H₃O⁺] = 0.110g * (1mol /19.01g) = 0.00579moles / 5.6L = 1.03x10⁻³M

[F⁻] = 0.163g * (1mol /19.0g) = 0.00858moles / 5.6L = 1.53x10⁻³M

[HF] = 1.62g * (1mol /20g) = 0.081moles / 5.6L = 0.0145M

Kc = [1.03x10⁻³M] [1.53x10⁻³M] / [0.0145M]

<h3>Kc = 1.09x10⁻⁴</h3>
