Answer:

1.04 moles of vitamin A2 contain the same number of atoms as 1.000 mol vitamin A

Explanation:

Step 1: Data given

Vitamin A = C20H30O

Vitamin A2 = C20H28O

Step 2: Determine the atoms in vitamin A

Vitamin A has 20 C atoms and 30 H atoms and 1 O-atom

In total we have 51 atoms in vitamin A

Step 3: Calculate numbers of atom in 1 mol

1 mol contains 6.022 * 10^23

For 51 atoms = 51 * 6.022*10^23 = 306 *10^23

Step 4: Determine atoms in vitamin A2

Vitamin A2 has 20 C atoms and 28 H atoms and 1 O-atom

In total we have 49 atoms in vitamin A2

Step 5: Calculate molecules A2

Molecules A2 = 306 *10^23  / 49

molecules A2 = 6.24*10^23

Step 6: Calculate how many moles of vitamin A2 contain the same number of atoms as 1.000 mol vitamin A.

n = 6.24*10^23 / 6.022*10^23 = 1.04 mol

1.04 moles of vitamin A2 contain the same number of atoms as 1.000 mol vitamin A

A solution of potassium cyanide, KCN, is made by dissolving 3.2 g of KCN in water. When this solution reacts with excess hydroch
Rama09 [41]

Answer:

22.7%

Explanation:

We must first put down the equation of reaction to guide our work while solving the problem.

KCN(aq) + HCl (aq)--> KCl(aq) + HCN(aq)

The questions specifically state that HCl is in excess so KCN is the limiting reactant.

Number of moles of KCN reacted= mass of KCN reacted / molar mass of KCN

Mass of KCN reacted= 3.2 g

Molar mass of KCN= 65.12 g/mol

Number of moles of KCN= 3.2/65.12 g/mol= 0.049 moles

Theoretical yield of HCN is obtained thus;

From the reaction equation;

1 mol of KCN produced 1 mole of HCN thus 0.049 moles of KCN will produce 0.049 moles of HCN.

Mass of HCN = number of moles ×molar mass

Molar mass of HCN= 27.0253 g/mol

Hence mass of HCN produced= 0.049mol × 27.0253 g/mol= 1.32g of HCN

Actual yield of HCN= 0.30g

% yield= actual yield/ theoretical yield ×100

% yield= 0.30/1.32 ×100

%yield= 22.7%
