%yield = 54.6%

<h3>Further explanation</h3>

Percent yield is the compare of the amount of product obtained from a reaction with the amount you calculated

(theoretical)

General formula:

Percent yield = (Actual yield / theoretical yield )x 100%

<h3 />

Reaction

2ZnS+3O₂ ⇒ 2ZnO+2SO₂

MW ZnS = 97.474 g/mol

  • mol ZnS

\tt \dfrac{150}{97.474}=1.54

MW ZnO = 81.38 g/mol

  • mol ZnO (from mol ZnS as limiting reactant, O₂ excess)

\tt \dfrac{2}{2}\times 1.54=1.54

  • Actual ZnO produced

\tt 1.54\times 81.38=125.33~g

Theoretical production = 125.388

  • %yield

\tt \dfrac{68.5}{125.33}\times 100\%=\boxed{\bold{54.6\%}}

If you took a spoonful of tea out of the cup, which would be more painful if it spilled on you? *
serg [7]
Based on my understanding of this question in my opinion atleast small sharp pain is worse so the cup would be more painful as it would spread that sensation over a large part of the body. (Hope this helps have a great day)

You plan to separate a polar and a non-polar compound using normal phase column chromatography technique. Methylene chloride (CH
marissa [1.9K]

Answer:

Hexane should be used first.

Explanation:

Chromatography is a method of separating the constituents of a mixture by taking advantage of their different rates of movement in a solvent over an adsorbent medium. Chromatography is a means of separation and analysis that utilises fractional separation. It is based on the principle  that if a fluid containing a number of substances is allowed to pass though an adsorbent medium, the different substances in the fluid may travel at different rates and be separated.

The rate of movement depends on the relative affinities of the constituents for the solvent and adsorbent medium. i.e solutes which are weakly adsorbed by the adsorbent medium are easily redissolved by the ascending solvent and quickly travel up the adsorbent medium. In addition to that , solutes which are very soluble in the solvent move up at a faster rate than those which  are not soluble.

In column Chromatography;

A non-polar solvent should be initiated and applied first. This is because , in a column chromatography, a non-polar compound will be removed at first then later polar compound.

Assuming a polar compound is used first, the polar compounds will be removed alongside with all the non-polar compounds.

From the two Compounds given;

We know that :

Hexane is a non-polar compound and Methylene chloride  is a polar compound. As such, Hexane should be used first.

A student drew a diagram of the quantum model of an atom, as shown. A small circle is shown. Six light gray spheres and six dark
Rufina [12.5K]

Answer:

The diagram is incorrect because there is only a single type of particle at the center of the atom.

Explanation:

The small circle at the centre of the sphere which contains six light gray spheres and six dark gray spheres represents the nucleus of the atom which is found at the centre of the atom.

The nucleus contains only one type of particle which is the proton. Hence the representation of two particles at the centre of the circle makes the model incorrect.
