Answer: 17.34 grams of alum will be produced if 0.9875 g of Aluminium foil was used.

Explanation: Reaction to form alum from Aluminium is given as:

2Al(s)+2KOH(aq.)+2H_2O(l)+4H_2SO_4(aq.)\rightarrow 2KAl(SO_4)_2(s).12H_2O(l)+3H_2(g)

We are given Aluminium to be the limiting reactant, so the formation of alum will be dependent on Aluminium because it limits the formation of product.

By stoichiometry,

2 moles of Al is producing 2 moles of Alum

Mass of 2 moles of Aluminium = (2 × 27)g/mol = 54 g/mol

Mass of 2 moles of alum = (2 × 474)g/mol = 948 g/mol

54 g/mol of aluminium will produce 948 g/mol of alum, so

\text{0.9875 grams of aluminium will produce}=\frac{948g/mol}{54g/mol}\times 0.9875g

Amount of Alum produced = 17.34 grams

Theoretical yield of alum = 17.34 grams.

Answer:

Nocturnal animals, such as owls, tend to have wide pupils and several rod cells in their retina because wide pupil allow more light to enter the eyes and the rods cells in the retina are sensitive to dim light and are vital for night vision.

Draw the major product of the reaction between 1-butanol and na2cr2o7, h2so4, h2o
Tju [1.3M]

The major product of reaction between 1-butanol and Na2Cr2O7 is butanoic acid.

When a primary alcohol like 1-butanol (OH is bonded to a primary carbon) is begin to oxidize in the presence of strong oxidizing reagent such as sodium dichromate (Na2Cr2O7) and H2SO4, sulfuric acid, the stepwise oxidation take place as above firstly to the corresponding aldehyde which undergoes further oxidation to the corresponding carboxylic acid.

You can find that the formed aldehyde after first oxidation is butanal and the only organic product, due to the strong oxidizing reagent is butanoic acid.

Thus, the major product formed is butanoic acid.
