Answer:

4.84g of FeO is the theoretical yield

Explanation:

The Iron, Fe(s), reacts with oxygen, O₂(g), producing Iron (II) oxide, as follows:

2Fe(s) + O₂(g) → 2FeO

<em>Theoretical yield is the yield of a reaction in which you assume the 100% of reactants is converted in products.</em>

<em />

To find theoretical yield we need to find moles of Iron, and, knowing 2 moles of Fe produce 2 moles of FeO (Ratio 1:1), we can find theoretical yield of FeO as follows:

<em>Moles Fe (Molar mass: 55.845g/mol)</em>

Using the molar mass of the compound we can convert grams to moles, thus:

3.76g Fe × (1mol / 55.845g) = <em>0.0673 moles of Fe</em>

<em />

<em>Moles and mass of FeO</em>

As there are in reaction 0.0673 moles Fe, assuming a theoretical yield (And as ratio of the reaction is 1:1), you will obtain 0.0673 moles of FeO.

Theoretical yield is given in grams, As molar mass of FeO is 71.844g/mol, theoretical yield of the reaction is:

0.0673 moles FeO × (71.844g / mol) =

<h3>4.84g of FeO is the theoretical yield</h3>

Which of the following explanations accounts for the fact that the ion-solvent interaction is greater for Li than for K
OLEGan [10]

Li+ has a smaller ionic radius than K+

and smaller molecules have more collisions/interactions between each other

<h3>What is ion-solvent interaction ?</h3>

In the case of ion-solvent interactions, the state in which the interac-tions exist is an obvious one; it is the situation in which ions are inside the solvent.

  • Ions are charged particles, and charges interact with other charges. So there will also be ion-ion, as well as ion-solvent, interactions in the solution.

  • In the process of solvation, ions are surrounded by a concentric shell of solvent. Solvation is the process of reorganizing solvent and solute molecules into solvation complexes.

How do the properties of a compound compare to the properties of the elements that make it up? A. the properties of the compound
Rufina [12.5K]

A compound contains atoms of different elements chemically combined together in a fixed ratio. An element is a pure chemical substance made of same type of atom. Compounds contain different elements in a fixed ratio arranged in a defined manner through chemical bonds.

How many moles of oxygen must be placed
Annette [7]

0.24 moles of oxygen must be placed  in a 3.00 L container to exert a pressure of 2.00 atm at 25.0°C.

The variables given are Pressure, volume  and temperature.

Explanation:

Given:

P = 2 atm

V = 3 litres

T = 25 degrees or 298.15 K by using the formula 25 + 273.17 = K

R  = 0.082057 L atm/ mole K

n (number of moles) = ?

The equation used is of Ideal Gas law:

PV = nRT

n = \frac{PV}{RT}

Putting the values given for oxygen gas in the Ideal gas equation, we get

n = \frac{2 x 3}{0.082157 x 298.15}

  = 0.24

Thus, from the calculation using Ideal Gas law it is found that 0.24 moles of oxygen must be placed in a container.

Ideal gas law equation is used as it tells the relation between temperature, pressure and volume of the gas.
