Answer:
Theoretical yield of C6H10 = 3.2 g.
Explanation:
Defining Theoretical yield as the quantity of product obtained from the complete conversion of the limiting reactant in a chemical reaction. It can be expressed as grams or moles.
Equation of the reaction
C6H11OH --> C6H10 + H2O
Moles of C6H11OH:
Molar mass of C6H110H = (12*6) + (1*12) + 16
= 100 g/mol
Mass of C6H10 = 3.8 g
number of moles = mass/molar mass
=3.8/100
= 0.038 mol.
Using stoichoimetry, 1 moles of C6H110H was dehydrated to form 1 mole of C6H10 and 1 mole of water.
Therefore, 0.038 moles of C6H10 was produced.
Mass of C6H10 = molar mass * number of moles
Molar mass of C6H10 = (12*6) + (1*10)
= 82 g/mol.
Mass = 82 * 0.038
= 3.116 g of C6H10.
Theoretical yield of C6H10 = 3.2 g
Heptane means seven carbon atoms and since the general formula is CnH2n+2, heptane will be C7H16

Equilibrium occurs when the rate of the forward reaction is the same as the rate of the reverse reaction. This doesn't necessarily mean the concentrations or pressure are the same on both sides of the equation, only the rates are the same
