<u>Answer:</u> The theoretical yield of solid lead comes out to be 5.408 grams.

<u>Explanation:</u>

To calculate the moles, we use the following equation:  

\text{Number of moles}=\frac{\text{Given mass}}{\text{Molar mass}}  

  • <u>Moles of Lead nitrate:</u>

Given mass of lead nitrate = 8.65 grams

Molar mass of lead nitrate = 331.2 g/mol

Putting values in above equation, we get:

\text{Number of moles}=\frac{8.65g}{331.2g/mol}=0.0261moles

  • <u>Moles of Aluminium:</u>

Given mass of aluminium = 2.5 grams

Molar mass of aluminium = 27 g/mol

Putting values in above equation, we get:

\text{Number of moles}=\frac{2.5g}{27g/mol}=0.0925moles

For the given chemical reaction, the equation follows:

2AI(s)+3Pb(NO_3)_2(aq.)\rightarrow 3Pb(s)+2AI(NO3)_3(aq.

By Stoichiometry:

3 moles of lead nitrate reacts with 2 moles of aluminium

So, 0.0261 moles of lead nitrate are produced by = \frac{2}{3}\times 0.0261=0.0174moles of aluminium.

As, the required amount of aluminium is less than the given amount. Hence, it is considered as the excess reagent.

Lead nitrate is considered as a limiting reagent because it limits the formation of product.

By Stoichiometry of the reaction:

3 moles of lead nitrate are produces 3 moles of lead metal.

So, 0.0261 moles of lead nitrate will produce = \frac{3}{3}\times 0.0261=0.0261moles of lead metal.

  • Now, to calculate the grams or theoretical yield of lead metal, we put in the mole's equation, we get:

Molar mass of lead = 207.2 g/mol

Putting values in above equation, we get:

0.0261mol=\frac{\text{Given mass}}{207.2g/mol}

Mass of lead = 5.408 grams

Hence, the theoretical yield of solid lead comes out to be 5.408 grams.

Carbon-12 and carbon-13 are isotopes of carbon.
ohaa [14]

Answer:

Isotopes of an element share the same number of protons but have different numbers of neutrons. Let's use carbon as an example. There are three isotopes of carbon found in nature – carbon-12, carbon-13, and carbon-14. All three have six protons, but their neutron numbers - 6, 7, and 8, respectively - all differ.

Explain in your own words the interplay of temperature (heat) and intermolecular forces and the effect of these two variables on
DochEvi [55]

The forces between particles are called intermolecular forces. A strong intermolecular force means that the particles are tightly paced and is associated with the solid phase. Moderate intermolecular force is associated with the liquid state and little to no intermolecular force is associated with the gaseous state. Temperature has a direct effect on the state of matter in which the substance exists has. Generally speaking, a rise in tempreature changes a substance from the solid to liquid phase and from liquid to gaseus phase. The reverse is true, if the temperature lowers then the substance will go from gas to liquid and liquid to solid. It is important to not that temperature affects intermolecular forces. As the temperature increases then the individual particles become excited and gain enough energy to over the intermolecular forces and so the particles seperate from each other.
