Answer:

Theoretical yield =26.03 g

Percent yield = 87%

Limiting reactant = CaO

Explanation:

Given data:

Mass of CaO = 14.4 g

Mass of CO₂ = 13.8 g

Actual yield of CaCO₃ = 22.6 g

Theoretical yield = ?

Percent yield = ?

Limiting reactant = ?

Solution:

Chemical equation:

CaO + CO₂   → CaCO₃

Number of moles of CaO:

Number of moles  = Mass /molar mass

Number of moles = 14.4 g / 56.1 g/mol

Number of moles  = 0.26 mol

Number of moles of CO₂:

Number of moles = Mass /molar mass

Number of moles = 13.8 g / 44 g/mol

Number of moles = 0.31 mol

Now we will compare the moles of CO₂ and CaO with CaCO₃ .

                  CO₂         :                CaCO₃  

                  1               :                 1

                 0.31           :              0.31

                CaO           :               CaCO₃  

                 1                :                 1

                 0.26         :              0.26

The number of moles of  CaCO₃ produced by CaO are less it will be limiting reactant.

Mass of CaCO₃: Theoretical yield

Mass of CaCO₃ = moles × molar mass

Mass of CaCO₃ =0.26 mol × 100.1 g/mol

Mass of CaCO₃ =  26.03 g

Percent yield:

Percent yield = actual yield / theoretical yield × 100

Percent yield = 22.6 g/ 26.03 g × 100

Percent yield = 0.87× 100

Percent yield = 87%

Limiting reactant:

The number of moles of  CaCO₃ produced by CaO are less it will be limiting reactant.

Negative radical in the periodic table​
yKpoI14uk [10]

Answer:

A radical is a group of atoms of elements carrying a charge, e.g., chlorate [ClO3–]. Radicals or ions are formed by losing or gaining electrons. When an electron is gained the group of atoms acquire a negative charge and is called a negative radical or negative ion.

Answer:

18 g

Explanation:

We'll begin by converting 500 mL to L. This can be obtained as follow:

1000 mL = 1 L

Therefore,

500 mL = 500 mL × 1 L / 1000 mL

500 mL = 0.5 L

Next, we shall determine the number of mole of the glucose, C₆H₁₂O₆ in the solution. This can be obtained as follow:

Volume = 0.5 L

Molarity = 0.2 M

Mole of C₆H₁₂O₆ =?

Molarity = mole / Volume

0.2 = Mole of C₆H₁₂O₆ / 0.5

Cross multiply

Mole of C₆H₁₂O₆ = 0.2 × 0.5

Mole of C₆H₁₂O₆ = 0.1 mole

Finally, we shall determine the mass of 0.1 mole of C₆H₁₂O₆. This can be obtained as follow:

Mole of C₆H₁₂O₆ = 0.1 mole

Molar mass of C₆H₁₂O₆ = (12×6) + (1×12) + (16×6)

= 72 + 12 + 96

= 180 g/mol

Mass of C₆H₁₂O₆ =?

Mass = mole × molar mass

Mass of C₆H₁₂O₆ = 0.1 × 180

Mass of C₆H₁₂O₆ = 18 g

Thus, 18 g of glucose, C₆H₁₂O₆ is needed to prepare the solution.
