Answer:

d. 97.60 g

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Number of moles of formaldehyde = 3.25moles

  Ratio:

                 C               H              O

                  1                2               1

Unknown:

Mass of this sample  = ?

Solution:

The empirical formula of a compound is its simplest formula. It is the simplest whole number ratio of the atoms in a given substance.

The molecular formula is the actual formula of the compound.

 Since the molecular and empirical formula are the same here, the formula of the compound is;

                   CH₂O

To find the mass of the formaldehyde, use the expression below;

        Mass  = number of moles x molar mass

             molar mass of CH₂O = 12 + 2(1) + 16  = 30g/mol

      Mass  = 3.25 x 30  = 97.5g

What is the percent yield of ferrous sulfide if the actual yield is 220.0 g and the theoretical yield is 275.6 g
Anika [276]
To get the percent yield, we will use this formula: ((Actual Yield)/(Theoretical Yield)) * 100% Values given: actual yield is 220.0 g theoretical yield is 275.6 g Now, let us substitute the values given. (220.0 grams)/(275.6 grams) = 0.7983 Then, to get the percentage, multiply the quotient by 100. 0.7983 (100) = 79.83% Among the choices, the most plausible answer is 79.8% <span>
