Answer:

The answer is 1.61 × 10²³ atoms

Explanation:

To determine number of atoms, we will use the formula below

Number of atoms = number of moles (n) × avogadro's constant (6.02 x 10²³)

n was not provided, hence we will solve for n

n = mass/ molar mass

molar mass of carbon monoxide, CO (where C is 12 and O is 16) is 12 + 16 = 28

mass was provided in the question as 7.48

n = 7.48/28

n = 0.267

Hence,

number of atoms = 0.267 × 6.02 x 10²³

= 1.61 × 10²³ atoms

Event 1 is an example of a chemical reaction.

<u>Explanation:</u>

Whenever if two solutions are mixed, then if there is any color change, or evolution of any vapors, bubbles or gas formation or if there is any formation of a color or white precipitate confirms that the occurrence of a chemical reaction.

If nothing happens said above then it is said that there is no chemical reaction occurs.

Here in the event 1 a clear liquid in one beaker poured into clear liquid in beaker 2 then there is a formation of orange liquid, which means there is a formation of a new colored liquid confirms that the chemical reaction occurred.

An excess of sodium carbonate, Na, CO3, in solution is added to a solution containing 17.87 g CaCl2. After performing the

Brrunno [24]

Answer:

Approximately $81.84\%$ .

Explanation:

Balanced equation for this reaction:

${\rm Na_{2}CO_{3}}\, (aq) + {\rm CaCl_{2}} \, (aq) \to 2\; {\rm NaCl}\, (aq) + {\rm CaCO_{3}}\, (s)$ .

Look up the relative atomic mass of elements in the limiting reactant, $\rm CaCl_{2}$ , as well as those in the product of interest, $\rm CaCO_{3}$ :

$\rm Ca$ : $40.078$ .
$\rm Cl$ : $35.45$ .
$\rm C$ : $12.011$ .
$\rm O$ : $15.999$ .

Calculate the formula mass for both the limiting reactant and the product of interest:

$\begin{aligned}& M({\rm CaCl_{2}}) \\ &= (40.078 + 2 \times 35.45)\; {\rm g \cdot mol^{-1}} \\ &= 110.978\; \rm g \cdot mol^{-1}\end{aligned}$ .

$\begin{aligned}& M({\rm CaCO_{3}}) \\ &= (40.078 + 12.011 + 3 \times 15.999)\; {\rm g \cdot mol^{-1}} \\ &= 100.086\; \rm g \cdot mol^{-1}\end{aligned}$ .

Calculate the quantity of the limiting reactant ( $\rm CaCl_{2}$ ) available to this reaction:

$\begin{aligned}n({\rm CaCl_{2}) &= \frac{m({\rm {CaCl_{2}})}}{M({\rm CaCl_{2}})} \\ &= \frac{17.87\; \rm g}{110.978\; \rm g \cdot mol^{-1}} \\ &\approx 0.161023\; \rm mol \end{aligned}$ .

Refer to the balanced equation for this reaction. The coefficients of the limiting reactant ( $\rm CaCl_{2}$ ) and the product ( ${\rm CaCO_{3}}$ ) are both $1$ . Thus:

$\displaystyle \frac{n({\rm CaCO_{3}})}{n({\rm CaCl_{2}})} = 1$ .

In other words, for every $1\; \rm mol$ of $\rm CaCl_{2}$ formula units that are consumed, $1\; \rm mol\!$ of $\rm CaCO_{3}$ formula units would (in theory) be produced. Thus, calculate the theoretical yield of $\rm CaCO_{3}\!$ in this experiment:

$\begin{aligned} & n(\text{${\rm CaCO_{3}}$, theoretical}) \\ =\; & n({\rm CaCl_{2}}) \cdot \frac{n({\rm CaCO_{3}})}{n({\rm CaCl_{2}})} \\ \approx \; & 0.161023\; {\rm mol} \times 1 \\ =\; & 0.161023\; \rm mol\end{aligned}$ .

Calculate the theoretical yield of this experiment in terms of the mass of $\rm CaCO_{3}$ expected to be produced:

$\begin{aligned} & m(\text{${\rm CaCO_{3}}$, theoretical}) \\ = \; & n(\text{${\rm CaCO_{3}}$, theoretical}) \cdot M(({\rm CaCO_{3}}) \\ \approx \; & 0.161023\; {\rm mol} \times 100.086\; {\rm g \cdot mol^{-1}} \\ \approx \; & 16.1161\; \rm g \end{aligned}$ .

Given that the actual yield in this question (in terms of the mass of $\rm CaCO_{3}$ ) is $13.19\; \rm g$ , calculate the percentage yield of this experiment:

$\begin{aligned} & \text{percentage yield} \\ =\; & \frac{\text{actual yield}}{\text{theoretical yield}} \times 100\% \\ \approx \; & \frac{13.19\; {\rm g}}{16.1161\; {\rm g}} \times 100\% \\ \approx \; & 81.84\%\end{aligned}$ .

xxTIMURxx [149]

Answer:

High activation energy is the reason behind unsuccessful reaction.

Explanation:

There are two types of reaction: (1) thermodynamically controlled reaction and (2) kinetically controlled reaction.

Thermodynamically controlled reaction are associated with change in enthalpy during reaction. More negative the enthalpy change, more favored will be the reaction.

Kinetically controlled reaction are associated with activation energy of a reaction. The lower the activation energy value, the more rapid will be the reaction.

Here, reaction between $CCl_{4}$ and $H_{2}O$ is thermodynamically favored due to negative enthalpy change but the high activation energy does not allow the reaction to take place by simple mixing.
