Answer:

27%

Explanation:

Hello,

The following information is missing, but I found it: "1.92 g of sodium sulfate is produced from the reaction of 4.9 g of sulfuric acid and 7.8 g of sodium hydroxide" so the undergoing chemical reaction is:

2NaOH+H_2SO_4-->Na_2SO_4+2H_2O

Now, to compute the percent yield, we must first establish the limiting reagent to subsequently determine the theoretical yield of sodium sulfate because the real (1.92g) is already given, thus, we consider the following procedure:

n_{NaOH}=7.8gNaOH*\frac{1molNaOH}{40gNaOH}=0.2molNaOH\\n_{H_2SO_4}=4.9gH_2SO_4*\frac{1molH_2SO_4}{98gH_2SO_4}=0.050molH_2SO_4\\

- The moles of sodium hydroxide that completely react with 0.05 moles of sulfuric acid are:

0.2molNaOH*\frac{1molH_2SO_4}{2molNaOH}=0.098molH_2SO_4

As this number is higher than the previously computed 0.05 moles of available sulfuric acid, one states that the sulfuric acid is the limiting reagent. Now, the theoretical grams of sodium sulfate are found via:

0.05molH_2SO_4*\frac{1molNa_2SO_4}{1mol H_2SO_4} *\frac{142.04gNa_2SO_4}{1molNa_2SO_4} =7.1gNa_2SO_4

Finally, the percent yield turns out into:

Y=\frac{1.92g}{7.1g} *100

Y=27.0%

Best regards.

kykrilka [37]
Generally speaking, organic molecules tend to dissolve in solvents that have similar physical properties. A good rule of thumb is that "like dissolves like". Meaning, polar compounds can dissolve polar compounds and nonpolar compounds can dissolve nonpolar compounds.

To apply this to the current problem, we are told that the brushes are being cleaned with vegetable oil or mineral oil. In this case, the oils are used as solvents. In order for these solvents to be effective, the compounds they are trying to dissolve must be similar in structure and properties to other oils. Therefore, vegetable oil or mineral oil will be most effective in removing oil-based paints, as these will have the similar properties needed to dissolve in the oil solvents.

Which class of compounds contains only carbon, hydrogen, and nitrogen?
Likurg_2 [28]
<h2>Answer: </h2>

Nitrogen forms many thousands of organic compounds. Most of the known varieties may be regarded as derived from ammonia, hydrogen cyanide, cyanogen, and nitrous or nitric acid. The amines, amino acids, and amides, for example, are derived from or closely related to ammonia.

<h3>Explanation: </h3>

A carbohydrate has only Carbon, Hydrogen and Oxygen, with the hydrogen and oxygen in the ratio 2:1.

Examples are glucose C6H12O6 and table sugar C12H22O11

A protein is made of amino acids. Amino acids have an amino group which is −NH2.  

So without nitrogen atoms the compound cannot be a protein.

Nucleic acids are organic compounds that contain carbon, hydrogen, nitrogen but they also contains phosphorus and oxygen. They are made of smaller units called nucleotides.

So;

Simple Amines are the class of organic compounds that only contains Carbon, Hydrogen and Nitrogen.

A fluid occupying has a mass of 4mg. Calculate its density and specific volume in SI, EE, and BG units.
kondaur [170]

The question is incomplete, complete question is:

A fluid occupying 3.2 m^3 of volume has a mass of 4 Mg. Calculate its density and specific volume in SI, EE, and BG units.

Explanation:

1) Mass of liquid = m = 4 Mg = 4 × 1,000 kg = 4,000 kg

(1 Mg = 1000 kg)

Volume of the fluid = V = 3.2 m^3

Density of the fluid = D

D=\frac{m}{V}=\frac{4,000 kg}{3.2 m^3}=1,250 kg/m^3

Specific volume is the reciprocal of the density :

V_{specific}=\frac{1}{Density}

Specific volume of the fluid = S_v

S_v=\frac{1}{D}=\frac{1}{1,250 kg/m^3}=0.0008 m^3/kg

2)

Density of the fluid in English Engineering units  = D (lb/ft^3)

1 kg = 2.20462 lb

1 m = 3.280 ft

D=\frac[1,250\times 2.20462 lb}{(3.280 ft)^3=78.95 lb/ft^3

Specific volume of the fluid :

=\frac{1}{78.95 lb/ft^3}=0.0127 ft^3/lb

3)

Density of the fluid in British Gravitational System units  = D (slug/ft^3)

1 kg = 0.06852 slug

1 m = 3.280 ft

D=\frac[1,250\times 0.0685218 slug}{(3.280 ft)^3=2.43 slug/ft^3

Specific volume of the fluid :

=\frac{1}{2.43 slug/ft^3}=0.412 ft^3/slug
