A student working in the laboratory produces 6.81 grams of calcium oxide, CaO, from 20.7 grams of calcium
ozzi

Answer:

Percent yield = 57.8 %

Theoretical yield  = 11.781 g

Explanation:

Given data:

Mass of CaO produced = 6.81 g

Mass of CaCO₃ react = 20.7 g

Theoretical yield = ?

Percent yield = ?

Solution:

Chemical equation:

CaCO₃       →      CaO + CO₂

Number of moles of CaCO₃ :

Number of moles = mass/molar mass

Number of moles = 20.7 g/ 100.1 g/mol

Number of moles = 0.21 mol

Now we will compare the moles of CaCO₃ with CaO.

                  CaCO₃        :           CaO

                       1              :              1

                      0.21         :           0.21

Theoretical yield of CaO:  

Mass = number of moles × molar mass

Mass = 0.21 mol × 56.1 g/mol

Mass = 11.781 g

Percent yield:

Percent yield = ( actual yield / theoretical yield ) ×  100

Percent yield = (6.81 g/ 11.781 g) × 100

Percent yield = 57.8 %

Oxygen is denoted as 16O8. How many protons and neutrons does an oxygen atom have?
MrRissso [65]
<span>Oxygen-16 atomic number is 8 so it has 8 protons. Its atomic weight is 16 so 16-8 = 8 neutrons.

Hope I helped. :) </span>

Use the information below to explain why the atomic radius decreases down a group.
notsponge [240]

Answer:

Detail is given below

Explanation:

Atomic radii trend along group:

As we move down the group atomic radii increased with increase of atomic number. The addition of electron in next level cause the atomic radii to increased. The hold of nucleus on valance shell become weaker because of shielding of electrons thus size of atom increased.

As the size of atom increases the ionization energy from top to bottom also  decreases because it becomes easier to remove the electron because of less nuclear attraction and as more electrons are added the outer electrons becomes more shielded and away from nucleus.

In A we can see that there is one positive charge and force of attraction is 2.30×10⁻⁸ N and distance is 0.10 nm

In B we can see that negative charge is further away from nucleus because of greater distance thus force of attraction will be less. 0.58×10⁻⁸ N

In C this distance further increases and force also goes in decreasing 0.26×10⁻⁸ N.
