Answer: 83%

Explanation:

The detailed solution is shown in the image attached. First we must work out the balanced reaction equation because accurate solution of the problem must be based on the stoichiometry of the reaction. From the given concentration and volume of reactants, we calculate the amount of substance reacted hence identify the limiting reactant. Lastly we use simple proportion to obtain the theoretical yield of the precipitate. This is now used to calculate the actual yield as shown in the solution attached.

Iron is extracted from iron oxide in the Blast Furnace: Fe 2 O 3 + 3 CO → 2 Fe + 3 CO 2
arsen [322]

a. mass of iron = 69.92 g

b. percent yield = 93%

<h3>Further eplanation </h3>

Percent yield is the compare of the amount of product obtained from a reaction with the amount you calculated

General formula:

Percent yield = (Actual yield / theoretical yield )x 100%

An actual yield is the amount of product actually produced by the reaction. A theoretical yield is the amount of product that you calculate from the reaction equation according to the product and reactant coefficients

a.

Reaction

Fe₂O₃+3CO⇒2Fe+3CO₂

MW Fe₂O₃ :  159.69 g/mol

mol Fe₂O₃

\tt \dfrac{100}{159,69}=0.626

mol Fe₂O₃ : mol Fe = 1 : 2

mol Fe :

\tt \dfrac{2}{1}\times 0.626=1.252

mass of Fe(Ar=55.845 g/mol) :

\tt 1.252\times 55.845=69.92~g

b.

actual yield = 65 g

theoretical yield = 69.92 g

percent yield :

\tt =\dfrac{65}{69.92}=0.93=93\%

If you are supposed to put in 2/4 a cup sugar for a recipe, can you just put in a half cup of sugar?
natta225 [31]
I would assume so.

Given \frac{2}{4}, we can simplify the fraction to \frac{1}{2}

Both would obtain the same proportions, so I don't see why putting a half cup of sugar would make things any different.

Hope this is the answer you are looking for.

The periodic table is useful because it is organized to show many patterns and trends. What property shows a decrease moving fro
Alex73 [517]

Atomic radius

Explanation:

A decrease in moving from the bottom of Group 3 to the top of the group shows an increase in trend from top to bottom.

The atomic radius of elements increases from top to bottom and decreases from the bottom to the top.

The elements in group 3 are B, Al , Ga, In and Tl

  • Atomic radius is taken as half of the inter-nuclear distance between two covalently bonded atoms of non-metallic elements or half of the distance between two nuclei in the solid state of metals.
  • Downs a group from top to bottom, atomic radii increases progressively due to successive shells being added.
  • This compensates for the size reducing effect of the increased nuclear charge.
