Answer:

No.

Explanation:

The reason comes the <em>Law of Conservation of Mass</em>.

In an ordinary chemical reaction, <em>you cannot create or destroy atoms</em>.

So, you must have as many atoms at the beginning of a reaction (in the reactants) as at the end (in the products)

We use this principle to balance chemical equations.

For example, the equation for the formation of water from hydrogen and oxygen is

2H₂ + O₂ ⟶ 2H₂O

There are four atoms of H and two of O both before and after the reaction.

In a lab experiment 80.0 g of ammonia [NH3] and 120 g of oxygen are placed in a reaction vessel. At the end of the reaction 72.2

valentinak56 [21]

The percent yield of the reaction : 89.14%

<h3>Further explanation</h3>

Reaction of Ammonia and Oxygen in a lab :

mass NH₃ = 80 g

mol NH₃ (MW=17 g/mol):

$\dfrac{80}{17}=4.706$

mass O₂ = 120 g

mol O₂(MW=32 g/mol) :

$\tt \dfrac{120}{32}=3.75$

Mol ratio of reactants(to find limiting reatants) :

$\tt \dfrac{4.706}{4}\div \dfrac{3.75}{5}=1.1765\div 0.75\rightarrow O_2~limiting~reactant(smaller~ratio)$

mol of H₂O based on O₂ as limiting reactants :

mol H₂O :

$\tt \dfrac{6}{5}\times 3.75=4.5$

mass H₂O :

4.5 x 18 g/mol = 81 g

The percent yield :

$\tt \%yield=\dfrac{actual}{theoretical}\times 100\%\\\\\%yield=\dfrac{72.2}{81}\times 100\%=89.14\%$

[11]. Of these four liquids, which is the most viscous?

-Dominant- [34]

The most viscous among the choices is D. Honey at room temperature.

Viscosities of liquids typically vary with temperature. The higher the temperature, the lower the viscosity. Among the choices, only motor oil and honey appear to be the most viscous. The clue that helps determined the answer are the words "hot" and "room temperature". Hot motor oil is less viscous, while honey at room temperature is more viscous. Even comparing their viscosities at room temperature, honey already has a higher viscosity than motor oil.
