One way of obtaining pure sodium carbonate is through the decomposition of the mineral trona, Na3(CO3)(HCO3)·2H2O. 2Na3(CO3)(HC

O3)·2H2O(s) â 3Na2CO3(s) + CO2(g) + 5H2O(g) When 1.00 metric ton (1.00 à 103 kg) of trona is decomposed, 0.650 metric ton of Na2CO3 is recovered. What is the percent yield of this reaction?
a. 92.4%
b. 72.1%
c. 65.0%
d. 48.1%
e. 35.0%

Answer:

a. 92.4%

Explanation:

Based on the reaction:

2Na₃(CO₃)(HCO₃)·2H₂O(s) → 3Na₂CO₃(s) + CO₂(g) + 5H₂O(g)

To obtain the percent yield you need to obtain moles of trona and calculate thoeretical moles of Na₂CO₃, and the ratio of obtained moles / theoretical moles of Na₂CO₃ give percent yield, thus:

Moles of trona:

1.00 metric ton × (1x10³kg / 1 metric ton) × ( 1000moles /226.03 kg) = <em>4424 moles</em>

The theoretical moles of Na₂CO₃ that produce 4424 moles of trona are (Based on the reaction, 2 moles of trona produce 3 moles of Na₂CO₃):

4424 moles trona × (3 moles Na₂CO₃ / 2 moles trona) = <em>6636 moles of Na₂CO₃.</em>

The obtained moles of Na₂CO₃:

0.650 metric ton × (1x10³kg / 1 metric ton) × (1000 moles / 105.99kg) = <em>6133 moles</em>

The ratio of obtained moles / theoretical moles gives:

6133 moles / 6636 moles = 0.924 = <em>92.4%</em>

I hope it helps!

Define the following:
Advocard [28]

Answer:

A. Passive Transport is migration of a molecule from one side of the cell membrane to the other, from an area of high electrochemical potential to a region of lower electrochemical potential.

B. Diffusion is an individual molecule of a material moving from a high-concentration location to a low-concentration area over a semipermeable barrier

C. Osmosis is the movement of molecules of water through a cell's partly permeable membrane from a liquid with a large concentration of water molecules to a solution with a lower concentration of water molecules.

D. Facilitated Diffusion are molecules that diffuse across the plasma membrane with assistance from membrane proteins, such as channels and carriers.

E. Active transport is the transport of molecules across a cell membrane against a concentration gradient from a low-concentration region to a high-concentration region.

F. Selectively permeable is when some chemicals or ions pass across the membrane, while others are blocked.

G. Cellular respiration are organisms mix oxygen with food molecules, directing the chemical energy in these substances into life-sustaining processes while eliminating carbon dioxide and water as waste material.

What is the total number of atoms in 0.20 mol of propanone, CH3COCH3?
Nutka1998 [239]

Answer:

1.2×10²³ atoms.

Explanation:

Data obtained from the question include:

Mole of propanone = 0.20 mole

Number of atoms of propanone =.?

From Avogadro's hypothesis, we understood that 1 mole of any substance contains 6.022×10²³ atoms.

This implies that 1 mole of propanone also contains 6.022×10²³ atoms.

Thus, we can obtain the number of atoms in 0.20 mole of propanone as illustrated below:

1 mole of propanone contains 6.022×10²³ atoms.

Therefore, 0.20 mole of propanone will contain = 0.2 × 6.022×10²³ = 1.2×10²³ atoms.

Thus, 0.20 mole of propanone contain

1.2×10²³ atoms.

Where is the mass of an atom found
Virty [35]

Answer:

The mass of an atom is found in its nucleus.

Explanation:

An atom is made of three different particles: protons, neutrons and electrons.

Protons (positive charge) and neutrons (no charge) each have a mass of 1 AMU. They are both found in the nucleus (centre) of the atom.

Electrons (negative charge) are considered to have a mass of 0. Their mass is not actually 0, but very close so we do not count them. They are not in the nucleus, but found in shells surrounding the atom.

To calculate the mass of an atom, we add the number of protons and the number of electrons.

m = P + N
