What is the Percent yield made if 3.9 grams of a substance were made experimentally while you calculated 3.6 grams of substance

using Stoichiometry?
Chemistry

Answer:

108.3%

Explanation:

Percent yield is the concept where you calculate the ratio or percent of actual yield to theoretical yield.

Actual yield is what you actually experimentally got.

Theoretical yield is what you expected to get from math.

Always remember the two terms above will never be same in real life because we do not have perfect system where we can account for energy loss and such in daily life.

Percent yield= actual yield/theoretical yield  x 100%

                    =  3.9/3.6 x 100%

                     = 108.3%

Percent yields are understandably less than 100% because of the reasons indicated earlier like imperfect systems. However, percent yields greater than 100% are possible, such as our question, if the measured product of the reaction contains impurities that cause its mass to be greater than it actually would be if the product was pure.

A sample of a compound is determined to have 1.17 g of carbon and 0.287 g of hydrogen. what is the correct representation of the
yarga [219]

CH3 is the empirical formula for the compound.

A sample of a compound is determined to have 1.17g of Carbon and 0.287 g of hydrogen.

The number of atom or moles in the compound is

1.17 g C X  1 mol of C / 12.011 g C = 0.097411 mol of C.

0.287 g H x 1 mol of  H / 1 g H = 0.28474 mol H.

This compound contains 0.097411 mol of carbon and 0.28474 mol of Hydrogen.

So we can represent the compound with the formula C0.974H0.284.

Subscripts in formulas can be made into whole numbers by multiplying the smaller subscript by the larger subscript.

we can divide 0.284 by 0.0974.

0.284 / 0.0974 = 3.

So here, Carbon is one and hydrogen is 3.

We can write the above formula as a CH3.

Hence the empirical formula for the sample compound is CH3.

Why are halogens reactive?
erica [24]

<u>Halogens are reactive because:</u>

They have high electronegativity and also high nuclear charge. So, they are reactive and also gain an electron when they react with other elements.

Since they are very reactive, halogens are very harmful to living organisms. Some of the halogens are fluorine, chlorine, bromine, iodine, astatine. These are mostly non metals. Fluorine is one of the most reactive gas and also very toxic gas. When Fluorine reacts with glass along with small amounts of water, it forms silicon tetra fluoride (SiF4). Hence fluorine should be handled with substances like the inert organofluorine compound Teflon.
