Answer:
39.3%
Explanation:
CaF2 + H2SO4 --> CaSO4 + 2HF
We must first determine the limiting reactant, the limiting reactant is the reactant that yields the least number of moles of products. The question explicitly says that H2SO4 is in excess so CaF2 is the limiting reactant hence:
For CaF2;
Number of moles reacted= mass/molar mass
Molar mass of CaF2= 78.07 g/mol
Number of moles reacted= 11g/78.07 g/mol = 0.14 moles of Calcium flouride
Since 1 mole of calcium fluoride yields two moles of 2 moles hydrogen fluoride
0.14 moles of calcium fluoride will yield 0.14×2= 0.28 moles of hydrogen fluoride
Mass of hydrogen fluoride formed (theoretical yield) = number of moles× molar mass
Molar mass of hydrogen fluoride= 20.01 g/mol
Mass of HF= 0.28 moles × 20.01 g/mol= 5.6 g ( theoretical yield of HF)
Actual yield of HF was given in the question as 2.2g
% yield of HF= actual yield/ theoretical yield ×100
%yield of HF= 2.2/5.6 ×100
% yield of HF= 39.3%
First and foremost, they are completely different substances with each exhibiting unique properties. Both have different atoms involved on their structures which is the cause of the differing properties.
Answer:
3,855.532 grams
Explanation:
1 pound = 453.592 grams
8.50 = ? grams
--> 8.50 * 453.592 = 3,855.532 grams.
