Answer:

The answer to your question is 280 g of Mg(NO₃)₂

Explanation:

Data

Efficiency = 30.80 %

Mg(NO₃)₂ = ?

Magnesium = 147.4 g

Copper (II) nitrate = excess

Balanced Reaction

                     Mg  +   Cu(NO₃)₂    ⇒    Mg(NO₃)₂   +   Cu

                  Reactants           Elements            Products

                         1                          Mg                     1

                         1                          Cu                      1

                         2                          N                       2

                         6                          O                       6

Process

1.- Calculate the theoretical yield

Molecular weight Mg = 24

Molecular weight Mg(NO₃)₂ = 24 + (14 x 2) + (16 x 6)

                                              = 24 + 28 + 96

                                              = 148 g

                           24 g of Mg  --------------------  148 g of Mg(NO₃)₂

                          147.4 g of Mg -------------------   x

                            x = (147.4 x 148) / 24

                            x = 908.96 g of Mg(NO₃)₂

2.- Calculate the Actual yield

yield percent = \frac{actual yield}{theoretical yield}

Solve for actual yield

Actual yield = Yield percent x Theoretical yield

Substitution

Actual yield = \frac{30.8}{100} x 908.96

Actual yield = 279.95 ≈ 280g

What is the molarity (molar concentration, unit = M) of K+ found in 200 mL 0.2 M K2HPO4 solution?
enyata [817]

Answer:

0.4 M

Explanation:

The process that takes place in an aqueous K₂HPO₄ solution is:

  • K₂HPO₄ → 2K⁺ + HPO₄⁻²

First we <u>calculate how many K₂HPO₄ moles are there in 200 mL of a 0.2 M solution</u>:

  • 200 mL * 0.2 M = 40 mmol K₂HPO₄

Then we <u>convert K₂HPO₄ moles into K⁺ moles</u>, using the <em>stoichiometric coefficients</em> of the reaction above:

  • 40 mmol K₂HPO₄ * \frac{2mmolK^+}{1mmolK_2HPO_4} = 80 mmol K⁺

Finally we <em>divide the number of K⁺ moles by the volume</em>, to <u>calculate the molarity</u>:

  • 80 mmol K⁺ / 200 mL = 0.4 M

What is the kinetic energy in kJ of 1 mole of water molecules (mass=18) if the average velocity is 590 m/s (1300 mph)
zubka84 [21]

Answer:

= 3132.9 Joules

Explanation:

  • Kinetic energy is the energy possessed by a body when in motion.
  • Kinetic energy is calculated by the formula; K.E = 1/2 mV², where m is the mass of the body or object, and V is the velocity.
  • Therefore kinetic energy depends on the mass and the velocity of the body or the object in motion.

In this case;

Kinetic energy = 0.5 × 0.018 kg × 590²

                        <u>= 3132.9 Joules</u>

The reaction that occurs in a Breathalyzer, a device used to determine the alcohol level in a person's bloodstream, is given bel
Umnica [9.8K]

Answer:

The rate of disappearance of C₂H₆O = 2.46 mol/min

Explanation:

The equation of the reaction is given below:

2 K₂Cr₂O₇ + 8 H₂SO₄ + 3 C₂H₆O → 2 Cr₂(SO₄)₃ + 2 K₂SO₄ + 11 H₂O

From the equation of the reaction, 3 moles of C₂H₆O is used when 2 moles of Cr₂(SO₄)₃ are produced, therefore, the mole ratio of C₂H₆O to Cr₂(SO₄)₃ is 3:2.

The rate of appearance of Cr₂(SO₄)₃ in that particular moment is given 1.64 mol/min. This would than means that C₂H₆O must be used up at a rate which is approximately equal to their mole ratios. Thus,  the rate of of the disappearance of C₂H₆O can be calculated from the mole ratio of Cr₂(SO₄)₃ and C₂H₆O.

Rate of disappearance of C₂H₆O = 1.64 mol/min of  Cr₂(SO₄)₃  * 3 moles of C₂H₆O / 2 moles of Cr₂(SO₄)₃

Rate of disappearance of C₂H₆O = 2.46 mol/min of C₂H₆O

Therefore, the rate of disappearance of C₂H₆O = 2.46 mol/min
