<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%

An amino acid is usually more soluble in aqueous solvent at pH extremes than it is at a pH near the isolelectric point of the am
gogolik [260]

Answer:

Option B. At pH extremes, the amino acid molecules mostly carry a net charge, thus increasing their solubility in polar solvent.

C. At very low or very high pH, the amino acid molecules have increased charge, thus form more salt bonds with water solvent molecules.

You have a 5-liter container with 1.30 x 1024 molecules of ammonia gas (NH3) at STP.
bogdanovich [222]

Answer:

3). 1.30 × 10^(24) molecules

Explanation:

From avogadro's law which state that equal volume of all gases at the same temperature and pressure contain the same number of molecules.

We can relate it to this question as;

V₁/n₁ = V₂/n₂

Where;

V₁ is initial volume

n₁ is initial number of molecules

V₂ is final volume

n₂ is final number of molecules

Thus at STP, we have V₁ = V₂ and as such Plugging in the relevant values gives;

5/(1.30 x 10^(24)) = 5/n₂

n₂ = 1.30 x 10^(24) molecules

Explain why lime is added to lakes. Refer to the problem that exists and what lime does to the lakes.
aalyn [17]

Explanation:

Lime is added to lower the acidity of lakes when pH levels go too low.

Acidic environment is harmful to aquatic ecosystems. Acidity causes some minerals, such as phosphorus and calcium, in the water to become unavailable to aquatic organisms like plants and fishes ( This means the water hardness is reduced). The low nutrients cause stress and death in the aquatic environment lowering biodiversity.  Applying lime raises the pH to neutral levels and improves the health of the aquatic life in the lake. This also improves economic activities in the lake like fishing.
