<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.

Which of the following molecules would you expect to have a dipole moment of zero? a,CH2 Ch3
Vadim26 [7]

Answer: The molecule CH_{3}-CH_{3} is expected to have a dipole moment of zero.

Explanation:

The product of magnitude of the charge calculated in electrostatic units is called dipole moment.

Formula for dipole moment is as follows.

Dipole moment = Charge (in esu) \times distance (in cm)

Non-polar molecules have zero dipole moment.

For example, CH_{3}-CH_{3} is a non-polar molecule so its dipole moment is zero.

H_{2}C=O is a polar molecule so it will have dipole moment.

CH_{2}Cl_{2} is a polar molecule so it will have dipole moment.

NH_{3} has nitrogen atom as more electronegative than hydrogen atom. So, net dipole moment will be in the direction of nitrogen atom.

Thus, we can conclude that the molecule CH_{3}-CH_{3} is expected to have a dipole moment of zero.

5.5x10² – 6.50x10'<br> Express the calculation in correct significant digits
OLga [1]

Answer:

6.15x10^2

Explanation:

Hello!

In this case, when performing mathematical operations with numbers in scientific notation, the first step is to write them in standard notation:

550 - 65.0

Thus, the result without any significant figures-based analysis is:

615.0

However, since 550 is significant to the ones and 65.0 to the tenths, we need to round the result to the bigger significance, in this case to the ones; therefore the appropriate result would be:

615

That in scientific notation would be:

6.15x10^2

Best regards!

A sample of gas has an initial volume of 15 L and an initial pressure of 4.5 atm. If the pressure changes to 1.8 atm, what is th
olga_2 [115]

Answer:

37.5 L

Explanation:

Initial Volume, V1 = 15L

Initial Pressure P1 = 4.5 atm

Final Pressure, P2 = 1.8 atm

Final Volume V2 = ?

The relationship between these variables is given as;

P1V1 = P2V2

V2 = PIV1 / P1

Inserting the values;

V2 = 4.5 * 15 / 1.8

V2 = 37.5 L
