First, it is important to list the molar mass of the relevant substances.

Molar mass of magnesium = 24.305 g/mol
Molar mass of water = 18.0153 g/mol
Molar mass of H2 = 2.0159 g/mol

Second, we need to determine the limiting reactant for the chemical reaction. We take 4.73 g of Mg and determine the stoichiometric amount of water needed for it to be completely consumed. This is shown in the following equation:

4.73 g Mg x mol Mg/24.305 g x 2 mol H2O/1 mol Mg x 18.0153 g/mol H2O = 7.0119 g H2O

Thus, we have determined that 7.0119 g H2O is needed to completely react 4.73 g Mg. The given amount of 1.83 g H2O is insufficient which then indicates that water is the limiting reactant and should be the basis of our calculations. 

Next, given 1.83 g H20, we calculate the theoretical yield of hydrogen gas using stoichiometry. The equation is then:

1.83 g H2O x mol H20/18.0153 g x 1 mol H2/2 mol H2O x 2.0159 g/mol H2 = 0.1024 g H2

However, the reaction yield was given to be 94.4%. The reaction yield is given by the formula percent yield = actual yield/ theoretical yield x 100%. Thus, the actual yield of hydrogen gas can be determined using the formula. 

Actual yield of H2 = 0.94*0.1024 g H2

Thus, the amount of hydrogen gas produced is 0.0963 g.

If the pressure on a gas at -73°C is doubled but its volume is held constant, what will its final temperature be in degrees Cels
Gre4nikov [31]

Answer:

127°C

Explanation:

This excersise can be solved, with the Charles Gay Lussac law, where the pressure of the gas is modified according to absolute T°.

We convert our value to K → -73°C + 273 = 200 K

The moles are the same, and the volume is also the same:

P₁ / T₁ = P₂ / T₂

But the pressure is doubled so: P₁ / T₁ = 2P₁ / T₂

P₁ / 200K = 2P₁ / T₂

1 /2OOK = (2P₁ / T₂) / P₁

See how's P₁ term is cancelled.

200K⁻¹ = 2/ T₂

T₂ = 2 / 200K⁻¹  → 400K

We convert the T° to C → 400 K - 273 = 127°C
