The following information was recorded by a student team working to prepare nickel sulfate. Plan: Prepare NiSO4 by reacting NiO

with 6 M H2SO4 The expected product is NiSO4·6H2O. We will filter the crystals from the reaction solution to get the product. NiO + H2SO4 --> NiSO4 + H2O molar mass of NiO: 74.69 g/mol molar mass of NiSO4: 154.75 g/mol molar mass of NiSO4·6H2O: 262.85 g/mol mass of NiO used: 7.5 g volume of 6M H2SO4 used: 50 mL heated the solution for 30 minutes, cool and filtered the crystals mass of product: 17.4 g Two students calculated percent yield using this data. One student got 66.2% and another got 112%. Based on this information, which of the following statements are true.
a. Both percent yields are incorrect because the student used the wrong number of moles.
b. The percent yield of 112% was calculated using the molar mass for the hydrated product.
c. The percent yield of 66.2% was calculated using the molar mass for the anhydrous product.
d. The percent yield of 66.2% was calculated using the molar mass for the hydrated product.
e. The percent yield of 112% was calculated using the molar mass for the anhydrous product.

Answer:

The options e and d are correct.

Explanation:

Mass of NiO = 7.5 g

Moles of NiO = \frac{7.5 g}{74.69 g/mol}=0.10 mol

Moles of sulfuric acid = n

Volume of sulfuric acid ,V= 50 mL = 0.050 L

Molarity of sulfuric acid ,M = 6 mol/L

n=M\time V=6mol/L\times 0.050 L =0.3 mol

NiO + H_2SO_4\rightarrow NiSO_4 + H_2O

According to reaction, 1 mole of NiO reacts with 1 mole of sulfuric acid.

Then 0.10 moles of NiO reacts with :

\frac{1}{1}\times 0.10 mol/=0.10 mol of sulfuric acid.

As we can see that sulfuric acid is in excess amount, so the amount of the product will depend upon amount of NiO.

According to reaction, 1 mole of NiO gives with 1 mole of NiSO_4.

Then 0.10 moles of NiO wil give :

\frac{1}{1}\times 0.10 mol/=0.10 mol of  NiSO_4.

Molar mass of  NiSO_4 = 154.75 g/mol

Mass of 0.10 moles of NiSO_4:

= 154.75 g/mol × 0.10 mol = 15.475 g

Theoretical mass of NiSO_4 = 15.475 g

Experimental yield of NiSO_4 = 17.4 g

Percentage yield :

\Yield=\frac{\text{Experimental mass}}{\text{Theoretical mass}}\times 100

Percentage yield of NiSO_4:

\Yield=\frac{17.4}{15.475 g}\times 100=112\%

Moles of NiSO_4.6H_2O = 262.85 g/mol × 0.10 mol = 26.285 g

Experimental yield of NiSO_4.6H_2O = 17.4 g

Percentage yield of NiSO_4.6H_2O:

\Yield=\frac{17.4}{26.285 g}\times 100=66.2\%

Nitric oxide reacts with chlorine gas according to the reaction: 2 NO( g) + Cl2( g) ∆ 2 NOCl( g) Kp = 0.27 at 700 K A reaction m
11Alexandr11 [23.1K]

Answer:  The initial partial pressures of NO and Cl_2 is 139.4 torr.

Explanation:

The equilibrium reaction is

                           2NO(g)+Cl_2(g)\rightleftharpoons 2NOCl(g)

initially conc.         p            p                  0

At eqm.                p-2x        p-x               2x

Given: p_{NOCl}= 2x= 115torr

x=57.5 torr

The expression for equilibrium constant is :

K_p=\frac{p_{NOCl}^2}{p_{NO}^2\times p_{Cl_2}}

p_{NOCl} = 2x =115 torr

p_{NO} = (p-2x) = p-115 torr

p_{Cl_2} = (p-x)= p-57.5 torr

Now put all the given values in this expression, we get

0.27=\frac{(115)^2}{(p-115)^2\times (p-57.5)}

p=139.4torr

Therefore, the initial partial pressures of NO and Cl_2 is 139.4 torr.

Melts in the system pb-sn exhibit regular solution behavior. at 473°c apb = 0.055 in a liquid solution of xpb = 0.1. calculate t
Masteriza [31]
Given the temperature 746 K and activity of Pb equal to 0.055. The mole fraction of Pb is 0.1. So, the mole fraction of Sn = 0.9.Activity coefficient, γ = 0.055 / 0.1 = 0.55.The expression for w=ln⁡〖γ_Pb x RT〗/(X_Sn^2 )=(-0.5978 x 8.314 J/(mol K ) x 746 K)/(0.9 x 0.9)= -4577.7 J= -4578 J

Now we use the computed value above and new temperature 773 K. The mole fraction of Sn and Pb are 0.5 and 0.5 respectively. Calculate the activity coefficient in the following manner.lnγ_Sn=w/RT  X_Pb^2=(-4578 J)/(8.314 J/mol  x 773 K)  x 0.5 x 0.5= -0.718lnγ_Sn=exp⁡(-0.178)=0.386The activity of  Sn= γ_Sn  x X_Sn=0.386 x 0.5=0.418
w of the system is -4578 J and the activity of Sn in the liquid solution  of xsn at 500 degree Celsius is 0.418
