Answer:

81.3 %

Explanation:

The formula for the calculation of moles is shown below:

moles = \frac{Mass\ taken}{Molar\ mass}

For ferrocene:-

Mass of ferrocene = 100 mg = 0.1 g

Molar mass of ferrocene = 186.04 g/mol

The formula for the calculation of moles is shown below:

moles = \frac{Mass\ taken}{Molar\ mass}

Thus,

Moles= \frac{0.1\ g}{186.04\ g/mol}

Moles\ of\ ferrocene= 0.0005375\ mol

For acetyl chloride:-

Volume = 40 microliters = 0.04 mL

Density = 1.1 g / mL

Density is defined as:-

\rho=\frac{Mass}{Volume}

or,  

Mass={\rho}\times Volume=1.1\times 0.04\ g=0.044 g

Mass of acetyl chloride = 0.044 g

Molar mass of acetyl chloride = 78.49 g/mol

The formula for the calculation of moles is shown below:

moles = \frac{Mass\ taken}{Molar\ mass}

Thus,

Moles= \frac{0.044\ g}{78.49\ g/mol}

Moles\ of\ acetyl\ chloride= 0.0005606\ mol

As per the reaction stoichiometry, one mole of ferrocene reacts with one mole of acetyl chloride to give one mole of monoacetylferrocene

Limiting reagent is the one which is present in small amount. Thus, ferrocene is limiting reagent.

The formation of the product is governed by the limiting reagent. So,

one mole of ferrocene on reaction forms one mole of monoacetylferrocene

0.0005375 mole of ferrocene on reaction forms  0.0005375 mole of monoacetylferrocene

Moles of product formed =  0.0005375 moles

Molar mass of monoacetylferrocene = 228.07 g/mole

Mass of monoacetylferrocene produced = Moles*molecular weight = 0.0005375*228.07 g = 0.123 grams = 123 mg

Given experimental yield = 100 mg

<u>% yield = (Experimental yield / Theoretical yield) × 100 = (100/ 123) × 100 = 81.3 %</u>

Butter melt when you heat it in a pan on the stove. Is this a chemical change or physical change? How can you tell?
choli [55]
It would be an physical change ; if you melt butter the butter goes from a solid to a liquid so therefore the physical state is changed.

A gas containing 80% CH4 and 20% He is sent through a quart/ diffusion tube (see Figure P8.8) to recover the helium, Twenty perc
elena55 [62]

For a gas containing 80% CH4 and 20% He is sent through a quart diffusion tube, the composition is mathematically given as

%He=12.5%

%CH4=87.5%

<h3>What is the composition of the waste gas if 100 kg moles of gas are processed per minute?</h3>

Generally, the equation for the Material balance  is mathematically given as

F=R+W

Therefore

100=0.20*1000+W

W=80kmol/min

In conclusion, waste gas compose

2.0/100*100=50/100*20+%*80

Hence

%He=12.5%

%CH4=87.5%

If a swimming pool contains 2,850 kiloliters (kL) of water, how many gallons (gal) of water does it contain? (1 gal = 3.785 L)
siniylev [52]

we are given

a swimming pool contains 2,850 kiloliters (kL) of water

2,850 kiloliters (kL)=2850000L

we know that

1gal=3.785L

3.785L=1gal

Firstly , we will find for 1L

1L=\frac{1}{3.785}gal

now, we can multiply both sides by 2850000

2850000*1L=2850000*\frac{1}{3.785}gal

2850000L=2850000*\frac{1}{3.785}gal

2850000L=752972.25892gal

so,

a swimming pool contains 752972.25892gal of water...........Answer

Nonamiya [84]

Answer:The masses of the reactants and products formed are not included in the question, so we cannot determine the percentage yield of water without knowing the yields of other substances.

However the formulae for percentage yield is;

Percentage yield=experimental yield/theoretical yield X 100
