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>

C3H8(g) + 5 O2(g) → 3 CO2(g) + 4 H2O(l)
stiv31 [10]

¹/3 C3H8(g) + ⁵/3 O2(g)

Explanation:

The coefficient before every molecule is representative of the number of moles. We can represent it in ration form so as to calculate the question;

C₃H₈(g) + 5 O₂(g) → 3 CO₂(g) + 4 H₂O(l) means;

For every 1 mole of C₃H₈(g) and 5 moles of  O₂(g) produces  3 moles of  CO₂(g) and 4 moles of H₂O(l).

Therefore to produce 1.00 mole of CO₂(g);

We represent it in ratio;

C₃H₈(g) : CO₂(g)

1  :     3

What about ;

? (x)   :  1

We cross multiply;

3x = 1 * 1

X = 1/3

We evaluate the same for O₂;

O₂(g) : CO₂(g)

5 :     3

What about

? (x) :     1

3x = 5 * 1

x = 5/3
