A student mixes a solution containing 10.0 g bacl2 (m = 208.2) with a solution containing 10.0 g na2so4 (m = 142.1) and obtains

12.0 g baso4 (m = 233.2). what is the percent yield of this reaction?

The balanced equation for the above reaction is as follows;
Na₂SO₄ + BaCl₂ --> BaSO₄ + 2NaCl
Na₂SO₄ reacts with BaCl₂ in the molar ratio 1:1
Number of Na₂SO₄ moles - 10.0 g / 142.1 g/mol = 0.0704 mol
Number of BaCl₂ moles - 10.0 g / 208.2 g/mol = 0.0480 mol
this means that 0.0480 mol of each reactant is used up, BaCl₂ is the limiting reactant and Na₂SO₄ has been provided in excess. 
stoichiometry of BaCl₂ to BaSO₄ is 1:1
number of BaSO₄ moles formed - 0.0480 mol
Mass of BaSO₄ - 0.0480 mol x 233.2 g/mol = 11.2 g
theoretical yield is 11.2 g but the actual yield is 12.0 g
the actual product maybe more than the theoretical yield of the product as the measured mass of the actual yield might contain impurities. 
percent yield - 12.0 g/ 11.2 g x 100% = 107% 
this is due to impurities present in the product or product could be wet.

3. If all the waves were measured for a period of 5 seconds, which wave had the highest frequency?
Vanyuwa [196]

Answer:

Correct answer is A.

Explanation:

Frequency is the number of oscillations that a wave have per unit time. Since time is measured in seconds, the wave with the highest frequency must register the highest number of oscillation per second. Hence, correct answer is A.

Inclined planes reduce the amount of effort needed to move an object, but increases
QveST [7]

Inclined planes reduce the amount of effort needed to move an object, but increases the length of the ramp.

<u>Explanation:</u>

Mechanical advantage is the measure of amount of effort needed to move an object. The mechanical advantage can be calculated as the ratio of length of ramp to the height of ramp for an inclined plane.

As it is known that an object can be easily moved on an inclined plane than on a vertical plane, this is because, the inclined plane provides greater output force. But in that case, the effort required will be reduced with the cost of increasing the distance of the movement of object.

In other terms , the ramp's length of inclined planes has to get increased in order to reduce the amount of effort needed to move an object. This is because as the mechanical advantage has length of the ramp in the numerator, with the increase in numerator value or length value the mechanical advantage will also increase.
