<span>4FeS2 + 11O2 = 2Fe2O3 + 8SO2</span>

Percent yield is calculated as the actual yield divided by the theoretical yield multiplied by 100.

Actual yield = 55 g ( 1 mol / 159.69 g ) = 0.34 mol Fe2O3

To find for the theoretical yield, we first determine the limiting reactant.

100 g O2 ( 1 mol / 32 g) = 3.13 mol O2
200 g FeS2 (1 mol / 119.98g) = 1.67 mol FeS2

Therefore, the limiting reactant is O2.

Theoretical yield = 3.13 mol O2 ( 2 mol Fe2O3 / 11 mol O2 ) = 0.57 mol Fe2O3

Percent yield = (0.34 mol / 0.57 mol) x 100 = 59.74%

Amino Acids undergo a kind of acid base reaction within a molecule. The Amino group acts as a base and accepts proton from Carboxylic functional group resulting in formation of Ammonium with positive charge and a negative charge on Carboxylate. Such molecules containing both positive and negative charges are called as Zwittor Ions. Phenylalanine both in Un-ionized and Ionized form is shown below,

The Earth's moon is unusually large. Two popular theories of the moon's origin include the "sister world" hypothesis, which stat
Verizon [17]

Answer: D. They show that neither theory is complete and entirely correct.

Explanation:

Theory is the set of rules and principles that describe and explain a particular phenomenon (the existence of the moon in this case) and is subject to changes as new evidence emerges that gives meaning to it.

In this sense, there are many theories about the Earth's moon formation and two of the "accepted" theories are described before the question. In addition, both theories explain in a certain way the reason why the Moon is predominantly composed of elements similar to those found on Earth.

However, both theories seem to be incomplete when trying to explain our Moon's origin.
