Answer:
Both b and d can be correct
Explanation:
Generally, diffusion does not require energy (<em>making option a wrong</em>) because it is the movement of particles from a region of high concentration to a region of low concentration hence diffusion moves particles in the direction of a concentration gradient. An example of this is the passive transport (for instance, uptake of glucose by a liver cell).
However, in some cases, when diffusion is against the concentration gradient (i.e when particles move from a region of low concentration to a region of high concentration), diffusion will require energy in a case like this (<em>making option c wrong</em>). An example of this is active transport (transport of protein called sodium-potassium pump which involves pumping of potassium into the cell and sodium out of the cell).
The explanation above shows that diffusion can require energy to move particles (in or out) of the cell through the cell membrane.
You just look at what vertical row that silicon is, and every element that is in the same vertical row as silicon will have the same lewis dot structure...and this applyes for most elements on the periodic table of elements.
- C, Ge,Sn, Pb:
all these elements are in the same column, and therefore have the same number of valence electrons
Answer:
a) 64.27%
b) 58%
c) ethanol is the limiting reactant
d) ethanol is the limiting reactant
Explanation:
We have to note that the expected yield is the theoretical yield while the actual mass or amount of product formed is the actual yield.
a) theoretical yield=68.3g
Actual yield= 43.9 g
Percentage yield= 43.9/68.3 ×100
Percentage yield= 64.27%
b) theoretical yield= 0.0722 moles
Actual yield = 0.0419
Percentage yield= 0.0419/0.0722 × 100
Percentage yield= 58%
c) note that the limiting reactant yields the least number of moles of product
Ethanol will be the limiting reactant since it is not present in excess.
d) from the reaction equation;
1 mole of acetic acid produces 1 mole of ethyl acetate
0.58 moles of ethanol produces 0.58 moles of ethyl acetate
1 mole of acetic acid yields 1 mole of ethyl acetate
Hence 0.82 moles of acetic acid yields 0.82 moles of ethyl acetate
Hence ethanol is the limiting reactant.
