Answer: Yes, she would change her mind after using a microscope.

Jusitification:

A microscope would revel a inner structure of the petal which is not compatible with the reasoing that the smallest thing that makes up the rose is a petal.

With the microscope she will be able to detect some repetitive patterns (cells) which imply that the petal is not a simple structure but is composed of other simpler structures.

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 %

When elemental boron, B, is burned in oxygen gas, the product is diboron trioxide. If the diboron trioxide is then reacted with
zalisa [80]

<u>Answer:</u> The chemical equation is written below.

<u>Explanation:</u>

Every balanced chemical equation follows law of conservation of mass.

This law states that mass can neither be created nor be destroyed but it can only be transformed from one form to another form. This also means that total number of individual atoms on reactant side must be equal to the total number of individual atoms on the product side.  

The chemical equation for the reaction of elemental boron and oxygen gas follows:

4B+3O_2\rightarrow 2B_2O_3

By Stoichiometry of the reaction:

4 moles of elemental boron reacts with 3 moles of oxygen gas to produce 2 moles of diboron trioxide.

The chemical equation for the reaction of diboron trioxide and water follows:

B_2O_3+3H_2O\rightarrow 2H_3BO_3

By Stoichiometry of the reaction:

1 mole of diboron trixoide reacts with 3 moles of water to produce 2 moles of boric acid.

Hence, the chemical equations are written above.
