Answer: sorry i dont knowExplanation:
Answer:
Percent yield = 84.5 %
Explanation:
Given data:
Mass of methanol = 229 g
Actual yield of water = 219 g
Percent yield of water = ?
Solution:
Chemical equation:
2CH₃OH + 3O₂ → 2CO₂ + 4H₂O
Number of moles of methanol:
Number of moles = mass/ molar mass
Number of moles = 229 g/ 32 g/mol
Number of moles = 7.2 mol
Now we will compare the moles of water with methanol.
CH₃OH : H₂O
2 : 4
7.2 : 4/2×7.2 = 14.4 mol
Mass of water:
Mass = number of moles × molae mass
Mass = 14.4 mol × 18 g/mol
Mass = 259.2 g
Percent yield:
Percent yield = actual yield / theoretical yield × 100
Percent yield = 219 g / 259.2 g × 100
Percent yield = 84.5 %
Explanation:
water evaporates because when h2o (water) particles heat up, they gain energy causing them to start to vibrate. this moves the oarticles further and further away from eachother and making the substance less dense, and turning it into a gas. meaning it has evaporated
