Answer:

Precent yield

Explanation:

This is takes into account how much of a substance should have been created (theoretical yield) and compares it to what was actually created (the actual yield).

375 mL of a 0.88 M potassium hydroxide solution is added to 496 mL of a 0.76 M cesium hydroxide solution. Calculate the pOH of t

AysviL [449]

Answer:

pOH of resulting solution is 0.086

Explanation:

KOH and CsOH are monoacidic strong base

Number of moles of $OH^{-}$ in 375 mL of 0.88 M of KOH = $\frac{0.88\times 375}{1000}moles$ = 0.33 moles

Number of moles of $OH^{-}$ in 496 mL of 0.76 M of CsOH = $\frac{0.76\times 496}{1000}moles$ = 0.38 moles

Total volume of mixture = (375 + 496) mL = 871 mL

Total number of moles of $OH^{-}$ in mixture = (0.33 + 0.38) moles = 0.71 moles

So, concentration of $OH^{-}$ in mixture, $[OH^{-}]$ = $\frac{0.71}{871}\times 1000M=0.82M$

Hence, $pOH=-log[OH^{-}]=-log(0.82)=0.086$

Iron(II) chloride is formed from the reaction between iron and copper(II) chloride. Fe + CuCl2 FeCl2 + Cu If the reactants have

elena55 [62]

Answer: see figure attached and explanation below.

Explanation:

1) Chemical equation (given):

Fe + CuCl₂ → Cu + FeCl₂

2) ΔHf reactants: -256 kJ/mol (given)

3) ΔHf products: - 321 kJ/mol (given)

4) ΔH reaction = ΔHf products - ΔHf reactants = - 321 kJ/mol - (- 256 kJ/mol) = - 65 kJ/mol

5) Conclusion:

i) Since ΔHf of products is less (more negative) than ΔHf of reactants, the reaction is exhotermic: the reaction released energy, which is the reason why the products content less potential energy than the reactants.

ii) Then, the energy diagram is the typical one of an exothermic reaction: the products start a certain potential energy level, the energy incrases until reaching the activation energy (the energy barrier to form the activated complex) and then energy decreases until a level below the energy of the reactants.

iii) See the attached figure with such kind of diagram showing the products at a lower level than the reactans
