Answer: C

Explanation:

Some poly nuclear aromatic hydrocarbons are not carcinogenic in themselves. However, when these are made to interact with living cells, enzymes in the cells could convert the polynuclear aromatic hydrocarbon into a carcinogenic material such as benzo-[a]-pyrene. This can now interact adversely with the deoxyribonucleic acid of living cells leading to genetic mutation, that is, irreversible changes in the genes of organisms.

Which of the following compounds contains the Lead (II) ion?<br> PbO<br> PbCl4<br> Pb2O<br> Pb2S
KATRIN_1 [288]
<span>PbO Let's look at each of the 4 compounds and see what's needed. PbO. * Oxygen has a valance shell that's missing 2 electrons and wants to get those 2 elections. Lead donates them, so you have a Lead (II) ions. This is a correct choice. PbCl4 * Chlorine wants to grab 1 electron to fill it's valance shell and Lead donates that election. However, there's 4 chlorine atoms and every one of them wants and electron, and lead is donating all 4 of the desired electrons making the Lead (IV) ion. So this is a bad choice. Pb2O * Oxygen still wants 2 electrons and gets them from the lead. But there's 2 lead atoms and each of them donates 1 election making for 2 Lead(I) ions. So this too is a bad choice. Pb2S * Sulfur is in the same column of the periodic table as oxygen and if this compound were to exist would have similar properties as Pb2O and would have Lead(I) ions. So this is a bad choice.</span>

Zn +
saul85 [17]

Answer:

1. Theoretical yield = 2.03g

2. Actual yield 1.89g

Explanation:

Let us write a balanced equation. This is illustrated below:

Zn + 2HCI —> ZnCl2 + H2

Molar Mass of HCl = 1 +35.5 = 36.5g/mol

Mass of HCl from the balanced equation = 2 x 36.5 = 73g

Molar Mass of H2 = 2x1 = 2g/mol

1. From the equation,

73g of HCl produced 2g of H2.

Therefore, 74g of HCl will produce = (74 x 2)/73 = 2.03g

Therefore, theoretical yield = 2.03g

2. %yield = 93%

Theoretical yield = 2.03g

Actual yield =?

%yield = Actual yield /Theoretical yield x100

Actual yield = %yield x theoretical yield

Actual yield = 93% x 2.03 = (93/100)x2.03 = 1.89g

Actual yield =1.89g
