Answer:
Physical properties are controlled by the mineral's chemical composition and atomic structure, this combination is distinct in each mineral.
Explanation:
Hello,
Since the physical properties depend on the mineral's chemical composition and the atomic structure (molecular arrangement), we can distinguish different minerals by measuring out hardness, cleavage and other properties in order to analyze their behavior under several conditions and subsequently use them in a particular application.
Best regards.
Answer:
Percent yield = 90.8%
Explanation:
The reaction of Fe with S to produce FeS is:
Fe + S → FeS
<em>Where the moles of Fe added in excess of S are the moles of FeS</em>
<em />
Now, percent yield is defined as 100 times the ratio between actual yield (13.8g of FeS) and theoretical yield (15.2g FeS):
Percent yield = 13.8g / 15.2g * 100
<h3>Percent yield = 90.8%</h3>
