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>

Which part of making a solution always releases energy?
emmainna [20.7K]
<span>The part of making a solution that always releases energy is the overall change in forming the solution. The answer is letter D. Although letters A, B and C can be viable answers but, it is not always the case. There are some substances that when you mix or separate them requires more energy or less energy. An example would be w</span>hen the formation (or enthalpy of formation) of carbon dioxide is negative, it means that it releases heat to the surroundings. When it releases heat to the surroundings, the reaction is exothermic. Another example is when you mix baking soda and muriatic acid, the resulting mixture is colder. When it is cold, it means that the reaction is endothermic. So the best answer is letter D.

A compound has an empirical formula of AB and a molar mass of 90 g/mol. What is its
Lelu [443]

Answer:

A3B3

Explanation:

Molecular formula = n x empirical formula

(AB) n = 90

MM of AB = 30 g/mol

30n = 90

Divide both side by the coefficient n i.e 30

n = 90/30 = 3

Molecular formula = n x empirical formula

Molecular formula = n x (AB)

Molecular formula = 3(AB) = A3B3
