When you calculate apercent recovery you may find sometimes that it islarger than 100%. Assuming this is NOT due to errors assoc

iated with zeroing the balance, subtracting the weight of the watch glass or weigh paper, or inaccuracies in the balance calibration, suggest a possible reason for this.

Answer:

Presence of impurities in the product.

Explanation:

Laboratory experience has shown that the percent yield obtained from a reaction may be greater than 100% if the product obtained from the reaction contains impurities that causes its mass to be greater than it actually would be if the product was pure.

A typical impurity that may be present in a product is the solvent used. This can be removed by evaporation of the solvent or by washing the product thoroughly.

Reaction of solid products with gases may also increase the percentage yield above 100%.

wlad13 [49]

<u>Answer:</u>

Exothermic Reaction are those reaction, in which energy is released while in endothermic reaction are those, in which energy is absorbed.

<u>Explanation:</u>

First Reaction:

As in this reaction, energy is released

½H2(g) + ½I2(g) → HI(g), ΔH = +6.2 kcal/mole

so it is <em>exothermic reaction</em>

Second reaction:

As in this reaction, energy is absorbed

21.0 kcal/mole + C(s) + 2S(s) → CS2(l)

so it is <em>endothermic reactions</em>.

In each case, decide if the change is a "chemical change" or a "physical change". a) A cup of household bleach changes the color
Crazy boy [7]

Answer:A cup of household bleach changes the color of your favorite T-shirt from purple to pink. - chemical change

Water vapor in your exhaled breath condenses in the air on a cold day.- physical change

Plants use carbon dioxide from the air to make sugar.- chemical change

Butter melts when placed in the Sun- physical change

Explanation:

A chemical change leads to the formation of a new substance and is not easily reversible. A physical change does not lead to the formation of a new substance and is easily reversible. Physical changes include condensation, melting,etc while a chemical change is a chemical reaction.

Problem Page Gaseous butane will react with gaseous oxygen to produce gaseous carbon dioxide and gaseous water . Suppose 5.2 g o
stich3 [128]

Answer: 0.0 grams

Explanation:

To calculate the moles, we use the equation:

\text{Number of moles}=\frac{\text{Given mass}}{\text {Molar mass}}

a) moles of butane

\text{Number of moles}=\frac{5.2g}{58.12g/mol}=0.09moles

b) moles of oxygen

\text{Number of moles}=\frac{32.6g}{32g/mol}=1.02moles

2C_4H_{10}+13O_2\rightarrow 8CO_2+10H_2O

According to stoichiometry :

2 moles of butane require 13 moles of O_2

Thus 0.09 moles of butane will require =\frac{13}{2}\times 0.09=0.585moles  of O_2

Butane is the limiting reagent as it limits the formation of product and oxygen is present in excess as (1.02-0.585)=0.435 moles will be left.

Thus all the butane will be consumed and 0.0 grams of butane will be left.

Which of the following statements correctly relates mutations and survival rates of plants?
Tasya [4]
Answer is: <span>Mutations sometimes improve the chances of survival for a plant.
</span>Mutations are very important because they change <span>variability in populations and in that way enable evolutionary change.
</span>There are three types of mutations:
1) good or advantageous mutations - <span> improve the chances of survival for a plant.
2) </span>bad or deleterious - decrease the chances of survival for a plant.
3) neutral -  not affect he chances of survival for a plant.
