Answer:

25%.

Explanation:

The following data were obtained from the question:

Experimental yield = 30 g

Actual yield = 40 g

Percentage error =..?

Thus, we can calculate the percentage error as follow:

Percentage error = |Experimental – Actual | / Actual × 100

Percentage error = |30 – 40|/40 × 100

Percentage error = 10/40 × 100

Percentage error = 25 %

Therefore, the percentage error in calculating the yield is 25%

slava [35]

Answer:

105 grams PbI₂

Explanation:

Pb(NO₃)₂ + 2KI => 2KNO₃ + PbI₂(s)

moles Pb(NO₃)₂ = 0.265L(1.2M) = 0.318 mole

moles KI = 0.293(1.55M) = 0.454 mole => Limiting Reactant

moles PbI₂ from mole KI in excess Pb(NO₃)₂ = 1/2(0.454 mole) = 0.227 mol PbI₂

grams PbI₂ = 0.227 mol PbI₂ x 461 g/mole = 104.68 g ≈ 105 g PbI₂(s)
