Students in Mr. Klein’s chemistry class are conducting an experiment to calculate the specific heat of a copper sample. Mr. Klei

n requires each lab team to repeat the experiment until their percent error is 2% or less. Percent error is calculated using observed values (those students calculate from their lab results) and the true value (the accepted value based on reference). The formula for percent error is: (observed – true) x 100 true If the accepted value for the specific heat of copper is 0.385 J/g°C, which of the following lab teams have an unresolved problem on their hands
a.

team 1: calculates 0.392 J/gºC
b.

team 2: calculates 0.395 J/gºC
c.

both teams
d.

neither team

Answer is: c) team 2: calculates 0.395 J/gºC.

1) Team 1:

Percent error = (0.392 J/g°C - 0.385 J/g°C) ÷ 0.385 J/g°C · 100%.

Percent error = 0.007 J/g°C ÷ 0.385 J/g°C · 100%.

Percent error = 1.82%.

2) Team 2:

Percent error = (0.395 J/g°C - 0.385 J/g°C) ÷ 0.385 J/g°C · 100%.

Percent error = 0.010 J/g°C ÷ 0.385 J/g°C · 100%.

Percent error = 2.60 %.

Percent error in team 1 value:
(0.392 - 0.385)/0.385  x 100
= 1.81%

Percent error in team 2 value:
(0.395 - 0.385)/0.385 x 100
= 2.60%

B. Team 2 has an unresolved issue in on their hands, resulting in greater than acceptable error.

A 115.0-g sample of oxygen was produced by heating 400.0 g of potassium chlorate.2KClO3 Right arrow. 2KCI + 3O2What is the perce
STALIN [3.7K]

Answer:

73.4% is the percent yield

Explanation:

2KClO₃ →  2KCl  + 3O₂

This is a decomposition reaction, where 2 moles of potassium chlorate decompose to 2 moles of potassium chloride and 3 moles of oxygen.

We determine the moles of salt: 400 g . 1. mol /122.5g= 3.26 moles of KClO₃

In the theoretical yield of the reaction we say:

2 moles of potassium chlorate can produce 3 moles of oxygen

Therefore, 3.26 moles of salt, may produce (3.26 . 3) /2 = 4.89 moles of O₂

The mass of produced oxygen is: 4.89 mol . 32 g /1mol = 156.6g

But, we have produced 115 g. Let's determine the percent yield of reaction

Percent yield = (Produced yield/Theoretical yield) . 100

(115g / 156.6g) . 100 = 73.4 %
