When an atom emits a beta

particle from the nucleus, the nucleus only has one more proton and one less

neutron and this will make the atomic mass number remains unchanged while the

atomic number increases by 1.

A reaction was suppose to produce 20 L of gas. Only 12 litters of gas were produced in the lab. What is the percent yield for th

pogonyaev

Answer:

$\boxed {\boxed {\sf 60 \%}}$

Explanation:

Percent yield is a ratio of the actual yield to the theoretical yield. It is found using this formula:

$\% \ yield= \frac {actual \ yield}{theoretical \ yield} *100$

The actual yield is 12 liters, because that was actually produced in the lab.

The theoretical yield is 20 liters, because that was the expected yield.

$\% \ yield= \frac {12 \ L}{20\ L} *100$

$\% \ yield= 0.6*100$

$\% \ yield= 60$

For this reaction, the percent yield is 60%.

A generic gas, x, is placed in a sealed glass jar and decomposes to form gaseous y and solid z. 2x(g)â½ââây(g)+z(s) how are thes

Elan Coil [88]

The chemical equation given is:

<span>2x(g) ⇄ y(g)+z(s)</span>

Answer: the higher the amount of x(g) the more the forward reacton will occur and the higher the amounts of products y(g) and z(s) will be obtained at equilibrium.

Justification:

As Le Chatellier's priciple states, any change in a system in equilibrium will be compensated to restablish the equilibrium.

The higher the amount, and so the concentration, of X(g), the more the forward reaction will proceed to deal witht he high concentration of X(g), leading to an increase on the concentration of the products y(g) and z (s).
