LiBr.
<h3>Explanation</h3>
Note that the group number in this answer refers to the new IUPAC group number, which ranges from 1 to 18. Counts from the left. Start with the first two column (group 1 and 2), go on to the transition elements (Sc, Ti, etc. in group 3 through 12), and continue with the nonmetals (group 13 through 18).
Li is a group 1 metal. As a metal, it tends to form positive ions ("cations"). Metals in group 1 and 2 are <em>main group</em> metals. The charge on main group metal ions tends to be the same as the group number of the metal. Li is in group 1. The charge on an Li ion will be +1. Formula of the Li ion will be
.
Br is a group 17 nonmetal. As a nonmetal, it tends to form negative ions ("anions"). The charge on nonmetal ions excepting for H tends to equal the group number of the nonmetal minus 18. Br is in group 17. The charge on a Br ion will be 17 - 18 = -1. Formula of the Br ion will be 
All the ions in an ionic compound carry charge. However, some of the ions like
are positive. Others ions like
are negative. Charge on the two types of ions balance each other. As a result, the compound is <em>overall</em> neutral.
1 × (+1) + 1 × (-1) = 0. The positive charge on one
ion balances the negative charge on one
ion. The two ions would pair up at a 1:1 ratio.
The empirical formula for an ionic compound shows all the ions in the compound. Positive ions are written in front of negative ions.
is positive and
is negative. The formula shall also show the simplest ratio between the ions. For the compound between Li and Br, a 1:1 ratio will be the simplest. The "1" subscript in an empirical formula can be omitted. Hence the formula: LiBr.
Answer:
C3H7OH → C3H6 + H20
Explanation:
If we look at the reactant and the product we will realize that the reactant is an alcohol while the product is an alkene. The reaction involves acid catalysed elimination of water from an alcohol.
Water is a good leaving group, hence an important synthetic route to alkenes is the acid catalysed elimination of water from alcohols. Hence the conversion represented by C3H7OH → C3H6 + H20 is an elimination reaction in which water is the leaving group.
Answer:
Theoretical yield: 2.75g of paranitroaniline
Percentage yield: 54.5%
Explanation:
In strong-acid medium, acetanilide (Molar mass: 135.16g/mol) reacts producing para-nitroaniline (138.12g/mol) in a 1/1 reaction.
Theoretical yield of para-nitroaniline is the mass produced assuming a yield of 100%. That is:
2.7g acetanilide × (1mol / 135.16g) = 0.020 moles of acetanilide.
Assuming a yield of 100% are 0.020 moles of paranitroaniline. Theoretical yield is:
0.020 moles × (138.12g / mol) =
<h3>Theoretical yield: 2.75g of paranitroaniline</h3><h3 />
Percentage yield is:
(Actual yield / theoretical yield) × 100
Actual yield was 1.5g and percentage yield will be:
Percentage yield: (1.5g / 2.75g) × 100
<h3>Percentage yield: 54.5%</h3>
