Aqueous hydrobromic acid HBr reacts with solid sodium hydroxide NaOH to produce aqueous sodium bromide NaBr and liquid water H2O

. If 0.555g of sodium bromide is produced from the reaction of 2.4g of hydrobromic acid and 0.77g of sodium hydroxide, calculate the percent yield of sodium bromide. Be sure your answer has the correct number of significant digits in it.

Answer:

28%

Explanation:

We must obtain the balanced reaction equation as this is the basis for all the calculations that follows. From the balanced reaction equation, 1 mole of hydrobromic acid reacts with one mole of sodium hydroxide to yield one mole each of sodium bromide and water.

Using simple proportion, we obtain the mass of sodium bromide produced by sodium hydroxide since it is the limiting reactant. This is now used to calculate the actual yield of sodium bromide and subsequently the percentage yield as shown.

Write 10,847,100 in Scientific Notation with 4 significant figures.
Lisa [10]

Answer:

The number 10,847,100 in Scientific Notation is 1.0847x10^{7}

Explanation:

Scientific notation is an easy form to write long numbers and it is commonly used in the scientific field. To write a long number in a shorter way it is necessary to 'move' the decimal point to the left the number of positions that are necessary until you get a unit. Then you write the number and multiplied it by 10 raised to the number of positions you moved the decimal point. In this case, it is necessary to move the decimal point 7 positions so, we multiply the number by 10 raised to 7.

Determine how the following bonds are made using Lewis dots structures
garri49 [273]

Answer :

1.) Ca^{2+}+2Cl^-\rightarrow CaCl_2

Calcium has 2 valence electrons and chlorine has 7 valence electrons. For neutral molecule, 2 chlorine atoms share their valence electrons with 1 calcium atom. The bonds are formed between the calcium and chlorine atom.

2.) Al^{3+}+3F^-\rightarrow AlF_3

Aluminium has 3 valence electrons and fluorine has 7 valence electrons. For neutral molecule, 3 fluorine atoms share their valence electrons with 1 aluminium atom. The bonds are formed between the aluminium and fluorine atom.

3.) H^{+}+Cl^-\rightarrow HCl

Hydrogen has 1 valence electron and chlorine has 7 valence electrons. For neutral molecule, 1 chlorine atom share their valence electrons with 1 hydrogen atom. The bonds are formed between the hydrogen and chlorine atom.

4.) 2H^{+}+S^{2-}\rightarrow H_2S

Hydrogen has 1 valence electron and sulfur has 6 valence electrons. For neutral molecule, 2 hydrogen atoms share their valence electrons with 1 sulfur atom. The bonds are formed between the hydrogen and sulfur atom.

5.) Cl^{-}+Cl^-\rightarrow Cl_2

Chlorine has 7 valence electrons. For neutral molecule, 1 chlorine atom share their valence electrons with 1 chlorine atom. The bonds are formed between chlorine and chlorine atom.

The lewis-dot structure image is shown below.
