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\%

The expected value for a chemical equation is 47g of water, after an experiment you find that you have 2.58 moles of water. What
strojnjashka [21]
<h3><u>Answer</u>;</h3>

Actual yield = 46.44 g

<h3><u>Explanation;</u></h3>

1 mole of water = 18 g/mol

Therefore;

The experimental yield = 2.58 moles

equivalent to ; 2.58 × 18 = 46.44 g

The theoretical value is 47 g

Percentage yield = 46.44/47 × 100%

                             = 98.8%

The questions asks for actual yield = 46.44 g

What are the ion concentrations in a 0.12 M solution of AlCl3? A) 0.12 M Al3+ ions and 0.040 M Cl- ions B) none of the answers C
KIM [24]

Answer:

D

Explanation:

To answer this question, we will need to write the dissociation equation of aluminum trichloride.

AlCl3 ——-> Al3+ + 3Cl-

It can be seen that when aluminum chloride dissociates, it gives one mole of aluminum ion and three moles of the chloride ion.

From here we can see that the concentration of the aluminum chloride equals that of the aluminum ion while that of the chloride ion is thrice that of the aluminum chloride. This means we simply multiply 0.12M by 3 to get the molarity of the chloride ion while that of the aluminum ion remains the same
