I have a buddy who recycles electronics, and isolates metals from the connector pins electrical boards. He isolates gold, for ex

ample, and purifies it the best he can, then sells it along with his other scrap metal. This last go around he was able to isolate 3.00 g of Au with a process he claims results in a 80.0% yield. If he is correct, what was his theoretical yield

Answer:

Theoretical yield = 3.75g

Explanation:

Percent yield is defined as one hundred times the ratio between actual yield and theoretical yield. The expression is:

Percent yield = Actual Yield / Theoretical Yield * 100

In the problem, your actual yield was 3-00g.

Percent yield is 80.0%.

Solving for theoretical yield:

80% = 3.00g / Theoretical yield * 100

Theoretical yield = 3.00g / 80.0% * 100

<h3>Theoretical yield = 3.75g</h3>

Answer:

Notice that the number of atoms of

K

and

Cl

are the same on both sides, but the numbers of

O

atoms are not. There are 3

O

atoms on the the left side and 2 on the right. 3 and 2 are factors of 6, so add coefficients so that there are 6

O

atoms on both sides.

Get a magnet in a bag (inside out) and move the magnet all over the sand/iron and you can collect all the iron and turn the bag right side out and zip up the bag. Now you have the sand and iron separated and it will be harder to accidentally mix them later.
