Calcium oxide (CaO) reacts with tetraphosphorus decoxide (P4O10) to form calcium phosphate (Ca3(P4O10)2) according to this equat

ion: 6 CaO+P4O10→2Ca3(PO4)2 In a particular reaction, 14.2 g P4O10 reacts with excess CaO and produces 24.8 g Ca3(PO4)2 . Approximately what is the percent yield of the reaction

Answer:

The percent yield of the reaction is 80%

Explanation:

6CaO + P4O10→2Ca3(PO4)2

Relation is 1 mol P4O10 to make 2 moles Ca3(PO4)2 (100% yield)

Molar mass P4O10 = 283,8 g/m

Molar mass Ca3(PO4)2 = 309,8 g/m

Mass /Molar mass = moles

I have 14,2 g P4O10 so I have 14,2g /283,8g/m = 0,05 moles

It was converted 24,8 g Ca3(PO4)2 so it was converted:

24,8 g /309,8 g/m = 0,08 moles

In the 100 % yield of the reaction:

1 mol P4O10 _____ 2 moles Ca3(PO4)2

I use 0,05 moles P4O10 ____ so I made (0,05 moles . 2 moles)/1 mol = 0,1 moles

0,1 moles converted of Ca3(PO4)2 ____ 100 %

0,08 moles moles I converted of Ca3(PO4)2 ____

(0,08 moles . 100%) / 0,1 moles = 80%

The activation energy of a certain uncatalyzed reaction is 64 kJ/mol. In the presence of a catalyst, the Ea is 55 kJ/mol. How ma
Ksivusya [100]

Answer:

About 5 times faster.

Explanation:

Hello,

In this case, since the Arrhenius equation is considered for both the catalyzed reaction (1) and the uncatalized reaction (2), one determines the relationship between them as follows:

\frac{k_1}{k_2}=\frac{Aexp(-\frac{Ea_1}{RT} )}{Aexp(-\frac{Ea_2}{RT})}  \\\frac{k_1}{k_2}=\frac{exp(-\frac{Ea_1}{RT} )}{exp(-\frac{Ea_2}{RT})}

By replacing the corresponding values we obtain:

\frac{k_1}{k_2}=\frac{exp(-\frac{55000J/mol}{8.314J/molK*673.15K} )}{exp(-\frac{64000J/mol}{8.314J/molK*673.15K} )} =4.8

Such result means that the catalyzed reaction is about five times faster than the uncatalyzed reaction.

Best regards.

(C6H6) can be biodegraded by microorganism. if 30 mg of benzene is present, what amount of oxygen required for biodegradation, n
quester [9]

Answer:

36.92 mg of oxygen required for bio-degradation.

Explanation:

5C_6H_6+15O_2\rightarrow 12CO_2+15H_2O

Mass of benzene = 30 mg = 0.03 g (1000 mg = 1 g )

Moles benzene =\frac{0.03 g}{78 g/mol}=0.0003846 mol

According to reaction 5 moles of benzene reacts with 15 moles of oxygen gas.

Then 0.0003846 mol of benzene will react with:

\frac{15}{5}\times 0.0003846 mol=0.0011538 mol of oxygen gas

Mass of 0.0011538 moles of oxygen gas:

0.0011538 mol × 32 g/mol = 0.03692 g = 36.92 mg

36.92 mg of oxygen required for bio-degradation.
