An industrial vat contains 650 grams of solid lead(II) chloride formed from a reaction of 870 grams of lead(II) nitrate with exc

ess hydrochloric acid. This is the equation of the reaction: 2HCl + Pb(NO3)2 → 2HNO3 + PbCl2. What is the percent yield of lead(II) chloride? The percent yield of lead chloride is %.

Answer:

88.98 %.

Explanation:

  • From the balanced equation:

<em>2HCl + Pb(NO₃)₂ → 2HNO₃ + PbCl₂</em>

  • It is clear that 1.0 mole of Pb(NO₃)₂ reacts with 2.0 moles of HCl to produce 1.0 mole of PbCl₂ and 2.0 moles of HNO₃.
  • <em>The percent yield % of lead(II) chloride (PbCl₂) = [(actual yield) / (calculated yield)] x 100.</em>
  • The actual yield of lead(II) chloride (PbCl₂) = 650 g.
  • Now, we need to calculate the calculated yield of lead(II) chloride (PbCl₂).
  • We need to calculate the no. of moles (n) of lead(II) nitrate (Pb(NO₃)₂) (870 grams) using the relation: <em>n = mass / molar mass.</em>
  • n of lead(II) nitrate (Pb(NO₃)₂) = mass / molar mass = (870 g) / (331.2 g/mol) = 2.63 mol.
  • Since HCl is in excess, the limiting reactant is lead(II) nitrate (Pb(NO₃)₂).

<u><em>Using cross multiplication:</em></u>

1.0 mole of Pb(NO₃)₂ produces → 1.0 mole of PbCl₂, from the stichiometry.

∴ 2.63 mole of Pb(NO₃)₂ produces → 2.63 mole of PbCl₂.

  • The mass of PbCl₂ produced (the calculated yield) = n x molar mass = (2.63 mol) (278.1 g/mol) = 730.52 g.

∴ The percent yield % of lead(II) chloride (PbCl₂) = [(actual yield) / (calculated yield)] x 100 = [(650 g) / (730.52)] x 100 = 88.98 %.

The ratio of the specific heat of aluminum to the specific heat of iron is 2:1. How much energy must be transferred to the alumi
erastova [34]

Given what we know about ratios, we can confirm that in comparison to the iron pan, the aluminum pan will receive twice as much heat.

<h3>Why would the aluminum pan receive double the heat?</h3>
  • This has to do with the ratio being presented.
  • A ratio of 2:1 means that for every unit of heat to the iron, the aluminum receives 2.
  • In other words, the aluminum pan receives twice as much heat when compared to the iron pan.

Therefore, we can confirm that because the ratio of heat to the aluminum in comparison to the iron pan is 2:1, this means that for every 1 unit of heat to the iron pan, the aluminum pan will receive 2. This results in double the total heat received by the aluminum pan.

Given the unbalanced equation: N2(g) + H2(g) → NH3(g)
mario62 [17]

Answer:

                   Option-4 (3:2) is the correct answer.

Explanation:

Following steps are taken to balance the given unbalanced chemical equation.

Step 1: Write the unbalanced chemical equation,

                         N₂ +  H₂ →  NH₃

Step 2: Balance Nitrogen Atoms;

There are 2 nitrogen atoms on left hand side and 1 nitrogen atoms on right hand site therefore, to balance them multiply NH₃ on right hand side by 2 i.e.

                         N₂ +  H₂ →  2 NH₃

Step 3: Balance Hydrogen Atoms;

Now, there are 2 hydrogen atoms on left hand side and 6 hydrogen atom on right hand site therefore, to balance them multiply H₂ on left hand side by 3 i.e.

                         N₂ +  3 H₂ →  2 NH₃

Now, the equation is balanced.

Step 4: Finding out mole ratios:

From balanced chemical equation it can be concluded that 3 moles of H₂ are involved in producing 2 moles of NH₃ hence, the mole ratio of consumption of H₂ to production of NH₃ is 3:2.
