Clearly, the acid is in deficiency ; i.e. it is the limiting reagent, because the equation above specifies that that 2 equiv of HCl are required for each equiv of metal.

So if

For the following reaction, 6.94 grams of water are mixed with excess sulfur dioxide . Assume that the percent yield of sulfurou

Alexxx [7]

<h3>Answer:</h3>

#a. Theoretical yield = 31.6 g

#b. Actual yield = 25.72 g

<h3>Explanation:</h3>

The equation for the reaction between sulfur dioxide and water to form sulfurous acid is given by the equation;

SO₂(g) + H₂O(l) → H₂SO₃(aq)

The percent yield of H₂SO₃ is 81.4%

Mass of water that reacted is 6.94 g

#a. To get the theoretical yield of H₂SO₃ we need to follow the following steps

Step 1: Calculate the moles of water

Molar mass of water = 18.02 g/mol

Mass of water = 6.94 g

But, moles = Mass/molar mass

Moles of water = 6.94 g ÷ 18.02 g/mol

= 0.385 mol

Step 2: Calculate moles of H₂SO₃

From the equation, the mole ratio of water to H₂SO₃ is 1 : 1

Therefore, moles of water = moles of H₂SO₃

Hence, moles of H₂SO₃ = 0.385 mol

Step 3: Theoretical mass of H₂SO₃

Mass = moles × Molar mass

Molar mass of H₂SO₃ = 82.08 g/mol

Number of moles of H₂SO₃ = 0.385 mol

Therefore;

Theoretical mass of H₂SO₃ = 0.385 mol × 82.08 g/mol

= 31.60 g

Thus, the theoretical yield of H₂SO₃ is 31.6 g

<h3>#b. Calculating the actual yield</h3>

We need to calculate the actual yield

Percent yield of H₂SO₃ is 81.4%

Theoretical yield is 31.60 g

But; Percent yield = (Actual yield/theoretical yield)×100

Therefore;

Actual yield = Percent yield × theoretical yield)÷ 100

= (81.4 % × 31.6) ÷ 100

= 25.72 g

The percent yield of H₂SO₃ is 25.72 g

Which of the following scientists was the first to determine the

Maru [420]

Answer:

Robert Boyle

Explanation:

Robert Boyle was an Irish chemist and is famously referred to as the first modern chemist. He was born on the 25th of January, 1627 in Lismore, Ireland and died on the 31st, December 1691, London, United Kingdom.

Robert Boyle was the first to determine the relationship between the pressure and volume of a gas.

Boyles states that when the temperature of an ideal gas is kept constant, the pressure of the gas is inversely proportional to the volume occupied by the gas.

Mathematically, Boyles law is given by;

$PV = K$

$P_{1}V_{1} = P_{2}V_{2}$

Where;

V1 and V2 represents the initial and final volumes respectively.

T1 and T2 represents the initial and final temperatures respectively.

A weight of 22.25g was obtained when 10-mL of water at 27C was pipet to empty Erlenmeyer flask. What is the volume delivered by

Nimfa-mama [501]

Answer:

the volume delivered by the pipette = 22.32 mL

Explanation:

To calculate this, let us first note that the density of water relates it weight and its volume (density = mass ÷ volume), hence we are going to use density to determine the volume.

Density of water = mass/volume = 0.997 g/ mL

mass = 22.25g

Density = 0.997g/mL

volume = ?

$density = \frac{mass}{volume}\\\therefore volume = \frac{mass}{density}\\volume = \frac{22.25}{0.997}\\volume = 22.32\ mL$

∴ the volume delivered by the pipette = 22.32 mL

<em>Please note that this calculation is based on the fact that the weight of the empty flask has been determined and canceled out.</em>
