The percentage yield is 72.8 %.
<em>Step 1</em>. Calculate the <em>mass of Br₂</em>
Mass of Br₂ = 20.0 mL Br₂ × (3.10 g Br₂/1 mL Br₂) = 62.00 g Br₂
<em>Step 2</em>. Calculate the <em>theoretical yield</em>
M_r: 159.81 266.69
2Al + 3Br₂ → 2AlBr₃
Moles of Br₂ = 62.00 g Br₂ × (1 mol Br₂/(159.81 g Br₂) = 0.3880 mol Br₂
Moles of AlBr₃ = 0.3880 mol Br₂ × (2 mol AlBr₃/(3 mol Br₂) = 0.2586 mol AlBr₃
Theor. yield of AlBr₃ = 0.2586 mol AlBr₃ × 266.99 g AlBr₃)/(1 mol AlBr₃)
= 69.05 g AlCl₃
<em>Step 3</em>. Calculate the <em>percentage yield
</em>
% yield = (actual yield/theoretical yield) × 100 % = (50.3 g/69.05 g) × 100 %
= 72.8 %
Answer:
Dalton's atomic theory proposed that all matter was composed of atoms, indivisible and indestructible building blocks. While all atoms of an element were identical, different elements had atoms of differing size and mass.
I believe the correct answer would be barium. It is the element between the two that would lose one electron more easily. This is because it has a higher first ionization energy which means the that the probability of it existing as an ion would be higher than magnesium.
For an arrangement of electrons to be nonpolar in a molecule they need to have equal electron charges.
