A 13.00 g sample of citric acid reacts with an excess of baking soda as shown in the equation. What is the theoretical yield of
2 answers:
Chemical equation of the reaction between citric acid and baking soda:
Ratios
Citric Acid Baking soda -> Sodium Citrate Water Carbon Dioxide
C6H8O7 CO2
1 mole 3moles
Molecular masses
Citric acid
6*12 + 8*1 + 7*16 = 192 g/mole
Carbon dioxide
12 + 2*16 = 44 g/mole
Proportion carbon dioxide / citric acid
3 * 44 g of carbon dioxide / 192 g of citric acid
132 g of carbon dioxide / 192 g of citric acid
13.00 g of citric acid * [132 g of carbon dioxide / 192 g of citric acid] = 8.94 g of carbon dioxide.
Answer: 8.94 grams.

Answer : The volume of produced at standard conditions of temperature and pressure is 0.2422 L
Explanation :
Combined gas law is the combination of Boyle's law, Charles's law and Gay-Lussac's law.
The combined gas equation is,
where,
= initial pressure of
gas = (740-22.4) torr = 717.6 torr
= final pressure of
gas at STP= 760 torr
= initial volume of
gas = 280 mL
= final volume of
gas at STP = ?
= initial temperature of
gas =
= final temperature of
gas =
Now put all the given values in the above equation, we get:
Therefore, the volume of produced at standard conditions of temperature and pressure is 0.2422 L
