sineoko [7]

Answer:

86% is the percent yield of the reaction

Explanation:

Percent yield is defined as 100 times the ratio of actual yield / theoretical yield.

Based on the reaction:

2Na + Cl₂ → 2NaCl

The theoretical yield is 0.50 moles because 0.50 mol of Na are added in the beginning. As 0.43 moles are produced, actual yield is 0.43 mol. And percent yield is:

0.43mol / 0.50mol * 100 =

<h3>86% is the percent yield of the reaction</h3>

What is the special state of matter that exist last at extremely high temperatures?
pickupchik [31]
Hey there!
Usually what's taught in school is this.
Solid- Particles packed, little energy.
Liquid- Particles less packed, more energy.
Gas- High energy in particles, less particle restriction, very spread out.
But here's the extra thing,
Plasma- Examples are things like fire and lightning. Very, very, high energy.
Hopefully this helps!

How has telephones change over time
blondinia [14]
Telephones began as large, clunky devices capable of transmitting and receiving voice messages over short distances, then evolved to lighter, transportable cellular devices capable of enabling communications over large distances. In the United States, Alexander Graham Bell receives credit for producing the first telephone in 1876. Bell established a basic system of communications allowing people to talk with each other remotely over short distances through receivers. <span>As with other technologies, phone technologies improved dramatically and rapidly following Bell's introduction of the telephone to American life. In addition to improvements in the device itself, transmissions methods improved as well. By 1900, telephone companies established communication lines through many American cities, allowing people to connect over larger distances. These lines contained special coils to reduce static and expedite transmissions. Telephone calls remained limited to local regions within the borders of the United States through 1915. Then, Alexander Graham Bell completed the first transcontinental call with Thomas Watson. Rotary phones emerged just before 1920, and a numbering plan arrived in the late 1940s to allow fast and direct connections between callers. In 1956, telephone cables permitted transcontinental calls for the first time. In the 1960s and 1970s, phone use extended to emergency service and the military. Portable phones arrived in the early 1970s; by 2000, thousands of Americans carried lightweight, compact phones wherever they went. AND THEY HAVE IPHONES NOW XDD
