<u>Answer:</u> The theoretical yield of iron (II) oxide is 5.53g and percent yield of the reaction is 93.49 %

<u>Explanation:</u>

To calculate the number of moles, we use the equation:

\text{Number of moles}=\frac{\text{Given mass}}{\text{Molar mass}}       ....(1)

  • <u>For Iron:</u>

Given mass of iron = 4.31 g

Molar mass of iron = 53.85 g/mol

Putting values in above equation, we get:  

\text{Moles of iron}=\frac{4.31g}{53.85g/mol}=0.0771mol

For the given chemical reaction:

2Fe(s)+O_2(g)\rightarrow 2FeO(s)

By Stoichiometry of the reaction:

2 moles of iron produces 2 moles of iron (ii) oxide.

So, 0.0771 moles of iron will produce = \frac{2}{2}\times 0.0771=0.0771mol of iron (ii) oxide

Now, calculating the theoretical yield of iron (ii) oxide using equation 1, we get:

Moles of of iron (II) oxide = 0.0771 moles

Molar mass of iron (II) oxide = 71.844 g/mol

Putting values in equation 1, we get:  

0.0771mol=\frac{\text{Theoretical yield of iron(ii) oxide}}{71.844g/mol}=5.53g

To calculate the percentage yield of iron (ii) oxide, we use the equation:

\%\text{ yield}=\frac{\text{Experimental yield}}{\text{Theoretical yield}}\times 100

Experimental yield of iron (ii) oxide = 5.17 g

Theoretical yield of iron (ii) oxide = 5.53 g

Putting values in above equation, we get:

\%\text{ yield of iron (ii) oxide}=\frac{5.17g}{5.53g}\times 100\\\\\% \text{yield of iron (ii) oxide}=93.49\%

Hence, the theoretical yield of iron (II) oxide is 5.53g and percent yield of the reaction is 93.49 %

An important industrial route to extremely pure acetic acid is the reaction of methanol with carbon monoxide:
Nastasia [14]

The reaction has had a heat that is enthalpy of -22 kJ/mol. The exothermic process has been signaled by the negative sign.

The amount of energy that the system absorbs or releases to create the products is described as the heat of reaction.

The source of the reaction's heat is

H is equal to 3(413 Kj/mol) + 358 Kj/mol + 467 Kj/mol + 1070 Kj/mol = 3134 Kj/mol.

H prod equals 3(413 kj/mol) plus 347 kj/mol plus 358 kj/mol plus 467 kj/mol plus 745 kj/mol, or 3156 kj/mol.

H=3134 kj/mol - 3156 kj/mol = -22 Kj/mol

Negative findings point to an exothermic response.

A chemical process known as an exothermic reaction releases energy in the form of heat or light.

What is the total pressure (in atm) inside of a vessel containing N2 exerting a partial pressure of 0.256 atm, He exerting a par
Bezzdna [24]

Answer: Total pressure inside of a vessel is 0.908 atm

Explanation:

According to Dalton's law, the total pressure is the sum of individual partial pressures. exerted by each gas alone.

p_{total}=p_1+p_2+p_3

p_{N_2} = partial pressure of nitrogen = 0.256 atm

p_{He} = partial pressure of helium = 203 mm Hg = 0.267 atm  (760mmHg=1atm)

p_{H_2} = partial pressure of hydrogen =39.0 kPa = 0.385 atm  (1kPa=0.00987 atm)

Thus p_{total}=p_{H_2}+p_{He}+p_{H_2}

p_{total} =0.256atm+0.267atm+0.385atm =0.908atm

Thus total pressure (in atm) inside of a vessel is 0.908

What happens to an electron when it emits a photon
Flura [38]

Answer:

when electron emit the radiations it means it jumped to the lower energy level from higher energy level.

Explanation:

When electron jump into lower energy level from high energy level it loses the energy.

The process is called de-excitation.

Excitation:

When the energy is provided to the atom the electrons by absorbing the energy jump to the higher energy levels. This process is called excitation. The amount of energy absorbed by the electron is exactly equal to the energy difference of orbits.

De-excitation:

When the excited electron fall back to the lower energy levels the energy is released in the form of radiations. this energy is exactly equal to the energy difference between the orbits. The characteristics bright colors are due to the these emitted radiations. These emitted radiations can be seen if they are fall in the visible region of spectrum.
