Determine the theoretical yield of HCl if 60.0 g of BC13 and 37.5 g of H20 are reacted according to the following balanced react

Pie

Answer : The theoretical yield of HCl is, 56.1735 grams

Explanation : Given,

Mass of $BCl_3$ = 60 g

Mass of $H_2O$ = 37.5 g

Molar mass of $BCl_3$ = 117 g/mole

Molar mass of $H_2O$ = 18 g/mole

Molar mass of $HCl$ = 36.5 g/mole

First we have to calculate the moles of $BCl_3$ and $H_2O$ .

$\text{Moles of }BCl_3=\frac{\text{Mass of }BCl_3}{\text{Molar mass of }BCl_3}=\frac{60g}{117g/mole}=0.513moles$

$\text{Moles of }H_2O=\frac{\text{Mass of }H_2O}{\text{Molar mass of }H_2O}=\frac{37.5g}{18g/mole}=2.083moles$

Now we have to calculate the limiting and excess reagent.

The balanced chemical reaction is,

$BCl_3(g)+3H_2O(l)\rightarrow H_3BO_3(s)+3HCl(g)$

From the balanced reaction we conclude that

As, 1 mole of $BCl_3$ react with 3 mole of $H_2O$

So, 0.513 moles of $BCl_3$ react with $3\times 0.513=1.539$ moles of $H_2O$

From this we conclude that, $H_2O$ is an excess reagent because the given moles are greater than the required moles and $BCl_3$ is a limiting reagent and it limits the formation of product.

Now we have to calculate the moles of $HCl$ .

As, 1 mole of $BCl_3$ react to give 3 moles of $HCl$

So, 0.513 moles of $BCl_3$ react to give $3\times 0.513=1.539$ moles of $HCl$

Now we have to calculate the mass of $HCl$ .

$\text{Mass of }HCl=\text{Moles of }HCl\times \text{Molar mass of }HCl$

$\text{Mass of }HCl=(1.539mole)\times (36.5g/mole)=56.1735g$

Therefore, the theoretical yield of HCl is, 56.1735 grams

Explain how there can be more heat energy in an iceburg than in a pot of boiling water

vlada-n [284]

Heat energy is the amount of heat there is in a substance. This may be cold heat or warm heat. Temperature is how hot or cold a substance is. So because there is a higher volume of heat in the iceberg, we say it has more heat energy.
