Which groups are potassium (K) and calcium (Ca) ) in ? Describe the similarities and differences between these groups

A reaction was performed in which 3.6 g 3.6 g of benzoic acid was reacted with excess methanol to make 1.3 g 1.3 g of methyl ben

Anit [1.1K]

<u>Answer:</u> The percent yield of the reaction is 32.34 %

<u>Explanation:</u>

To calculate the number of moles, we use the equation:

$\text{Number of moles}=\frac{\text{Given mass}}{\text{Molar mass}}$ .....(1)

<u>For benzoic acid:</u>

Given mass of benzoic acid = 3.6 g

Molar mass of benzoic acid = 122.12 g/mol

Putting values in equation 1, we get:

$\text{Moles of benzoic acid}=\frac{3.6g}{122.12g/mol}=0.0295mol$

The chemical equation for the reaction of benzoic acid and methanol is:

$\text{Benzoic acid + methanol}\rightarrow \text{methyl benzoate}$

By Stoichiometry of the reaction

1 mole of benzoic acid produces 1 mole of methyl benzoate

So, 0.0295 moles of benzoic acid will produce = $\frac{1}{1}\times 0.0295=0.108$ moles of methyl benzoate

Now, calculating the mass of methyl benzoate from equation 1, we get:

Molar mass of methyl benzoate = 136.15 g/mol

Moles of methyl benzoate = 0.0295 moles

Putting values in equation 1, we get:

$0.0295mol=\frac{\text{Mass of methyl benzoate}}{136.15g/mol}\\\\\text{Mass of methyl benzoate}=(0.0295mol\times 136.15g/mol)=4.02g$

To calculate the percentage yield of methyl benzoate, we use the equation:

$\%\text{ yield}=\frac{\text{Experimental yield}}{\text{Theoretical yield}}\times 100$

Experimental yield of methyl benzoate = 1.3 g

Theoretical yield of methyl benzoate = 4.02 g

Putting values in above equation, we get:

$\%\text{ yield of methyl benzoate}=\frac{1.3g}{4.02g}\times 100\\\\\% \text{yield of methyl benzoate}=32.34\%$

Hence, the percent yield of the reaction is 32.34 %

Explain with examples following characteristics of chemical reactions: a. Change of colour b. Evolution of gas c. Change of smel

Andrei [34K]

Answer:

Explanation:

a. change of colour:

A chemical reaction rearranges the constituent atoms of the reactants to create different substances as products. The products have different molecular structures than the reactants. Different atoms and molecules radiate different colours of light. Hence, there usually is a change in colour during a chemical reaction.

Eg: copper reactions with the elements

b. Evolution of gas:

A gas evolution reaction is a chemical reaction in which one of the end products is a gas such as oxygen or carbon dioxide.

Eg: ammonium hydroxide breaks down to water and ammonia gas.

c. Change of smell :

Production of an Odor Some chemical changes produce new smells. ... The formation of gas bubbles is another indicator that a chemical change may have occured.

Eg: The chemical change that occurs when an egg is rotting produces the smell of sulfur.

d. Change of state:

A chemical reaction is a process in which one or more substances, also called reactants, are converted to one or more different substances, known as products.

Eg: candle wax (solid) melts initially to produce molten wax (liquid)
