Seismologists study earthquakes by going out and looking at the damage caused by the earthquakes and by using seismographs. A seismograph is an instrument that records the shaking of the earth's surface caused by seismic waves.

How many milliliters of 0.200 m fecl3 are needed to react with an excess of na2s to produce 1.38 g of fe2s3 if the percent yield
ahrayia [7]
<span>Answer: 100 ml
</span>

<span>Explanation:


1) Convert 1.38 g of Fe₂S₃ into number of moles, n


</span>i) Formula: n = mass in grass / molar mass
<span>
ii) molar mass of </span><span>Fe₂S₃ =2 x 55.8 g/mol + 3 x 32.1 g/mol = 207.9 g/mol
</span>

iii) n = 1.38 g / 207.9 g/mol = 0.00664 moles of <span>Fe₂S₃
</span>

<span>2) Use the percent yield to calculate the theoretical amount:
</span>

<span>65% = 0.65 = actual yield/ theoretical yield =>


</span>theoretical yield = actual yield / 0.65 = 0.00664 moles / 0.65 = 0.010 mol <span>Fe₂S₃</span><span>

3) Chemical equation:
</span>

<span> 3 Na₂S(aq) + 2 FeCl₃(aq) → Fe₂S₃(s) + 6 NaCl(aq)


4) Stoichiometrical mole ratios:
</span>

<span>3 mol Na₂S : 2 mol FeCl₃ : 1 mol Fe₂S₃ : 6 mol NaCl


5) Proportionality:


</span>2moles FeCl₃ / 1 mol Fe₂S₃ = x / 0.010 mol Fe₂S₃
<span>
=> x = 0.020 mol FeCl₃


6) convert 0.020 mol to volume
</span>

<span>i) Molarity formula: M = n / V
</span>

<span>ii) V = n / M = 0.020 mol / 0.2 M = 0.1 liter = 100 ml
</span>

During heat transfer, thermal energy always moves in the same direction: A. COLDHOT B. HOT COLD C. No movement D. HOTHOT
drek231 [11]

Answer: Option (B) is the correct answer.

Explanation:

Thermal energy is defined as the energy present within the molecules of a substance.

Also, when two objects that have different temperature and they are in contact with each other then heat will always flow from hot object to cold object.

For example, if a metal spoon is placed in a hot cup of coffee then heat will flow from hot coffee to the metal spoon.

Therefore, we can conclude that during heat transfer, thermal energy always moves in the same direction: HOT COLD.

Typically, your percent yield is ______ than 100% because ___________________________.
masya89 [10]

Reasons why percent yield is more than 100

Typically, percent yields are understandably less than 100% because of the reasons indicated earlier. However, percent yields greater than 100% are possible if the measured product of the reaction contains impurities that cause its mass to be greater than it actually would be if the product was pure.
