In performing this week's bromination reaction, if you were to start with 126 mg of acetanilide (135.17 g/mol), calculate the th

eoretical yield of 4-bromoacetanilide (214.06 g/mol), in mg. Assume an excess of bromine. Enter your answer as digits only, no units, using the proper number of significant figures.

Answer:

Theoretical yield of C8H8BrNO:

In moles

0.000945

In grams

0.204

Explanation:

Theoretical yield of a reaction is defined as the quantity of the product obtained from the complete conversion of a limiting reactant in a chemical reaction. Theoretical yield can be expressed as grams or moles.

Equation of reaction:

C8H9NO + Br2 --> C8H8BrNO + HBr

Since C8H9NO is the limiting reagent, 1 mole of C8H9NO reacted to form 1 mole of C8H8BrNO

Mass of C8H9NO = 129 mg

= 0.129 g.

Molar mass of C8H9NO = 135.17 g/mol.

Number of moles of C8H9NO = mass/molar mass.

= 0.129/135.17

= 0.00095 moles of C8H9NO

Since 1 mole of C8H9NO yielded 1 mole of C8H8BrNO

Therefore, 0.000954 moles of C8H8BrNO

Theoretical yield (in grams) = molar mass * number of moles

= 214.06 * 0.00095

= 0.204 of C8H8BrNO

Consider the balanced chemical reaction when phosphorus and iodine react to produce phosphorus triodide: 2 P(s) + 3 I2(g) → 2 PI
melamori03 [73]

Answer:

Percent yield of PI3 = 95.4%

Explanation:

This is the reaction:

2P (s) + 3I2 (g) > 2PI3 (g)

Let's determine the moles of iodine that has reacted.

58.6 g / 253.8 g/mol = 0.231 mol

Ratio is 3:2. Let's make a rule of three to state the moles produced at 100 % yield reaction.

3 moles of I2 react to make 2 moles of PI3

0.231 moles of I2 would make (0.231 .2) / 3 = 0.154 moles of PI3

As we have produced 0.147 moles let's determine the percent yield.

(Yield produced / Theoretical yield) . 100 > (0.147 / 0.154) . 100 = 95.4%

Travka [436]

Answer:

4

Explanation:

Significant figures (also known as the significant digits, precision or resolution) of a number in positional notation are digits in the number that are reliable and absolutely necessary to indicate the quantity of something.

Significant numebrs: 69.38

We don't need the extra zero!
