Answer:

The correct answer will be option-Ernest Rutherford.

Explanation:

Atom is the smallest unit of matter which was earlier thought to be indestructible but later new findings suggested that atom contains sub-atomic particles.

The arrangements of these sub-atomic particles in an atom were represented by many models, best accepted of which is presented by Ernest Rutherford in 1911.

His experimental findings concluded that a dense heavy nucleus is present in the center of an atom which is surrounded by a negatively charged nucleus.

Thus, the selected option is the correct answer.

If 9.8g water is used in electrolysis, what is the percent yield if 5.6g of oxygen was

ANEK [815]

Answer:

Approximately $64\%$ .

Explanation:

$\displaystyle \text{Percentage Yield} = \frac{\text{Actual Yield}}{\text{Theoretical Yield}} \times 100\%$

The actual yield of $\rm O_2$ was given. The theoretical yield needs to be calculated from the quantity of the reactant.

Balance the equation for the hydrolysis of water:

$\rm 2\, H_2O \, (l) \to 2\, H_2\, (g) + O_2\, (g)$ .

Note the ratio between the coefficient of $\rm H_2O\, (g)$ and $\rm O_2\, (g)$ :

$\displaystyle \frac{n(\mathrm{O_2\, (g)})}{n(\mathrm{H_2O\, (aq)})} = \frac{1}{2}$ .

This ratio will be useful for finding the theoretical yield of $\rm O_2\, (g)$ .

Look up the relative atomic mass of hydrogen and oxygen on a modern periodic table.

$\rm H$ : $1.008$ .
$\rm O$ : $15.999$ .

Calculate the formula mass of $\rm H_2O$ and $\rm O_2$ :

$M(\mathrm{H_2O}) =2\times 1.008 + 15.999 = 18.015\; \rm g \cdot mol^{-1}$ .

$M(\mathrm{O_2}) =2\times 15.999 = 31.998\; \rm g \cdot mol^{-1}$ .

Calculate the number of moles of molecules in $9.8\; \rm g$ of $\rm H_2O$ :

$\displaystyle n(\mathrm{H_2O}) = \frac{m(\mathrm{H_2O})}{M(\mathrm{H_2O})} = \frac{9.8\; \rm g}{18.015\; \rm g \cdot mol^{-1}} \approx 0.543991\;\rm g \cdot mol^{-1}$ .

Make use of the ratio $\displaystyle \frac{n(\mathrm{O_2\, (g)})}{n(\mathrm{H_2O\, (aq)})} = \frac{1}{2}$ to find the theoretical yield of $\rm O_2$ (in terms of number of moles of molecules.)

$\begin{aligned} n(\mathrm{O_2}) &= \displaystyle \frac{n(\mathrm{O_2\, (g)})}{n(\mathrm{H_2O\, (aq)})} \cdot n(\mathrm{H_2O}) \\ &\approx \frac{1}{2} \times 0.543991\; \rm mol \approx 0.271996\; \rm mol \end{aligned}$ .

Calculate the mass of that approximately $0.271996\; \rm mol$ of $\rm O_2$ (theoretical yield.)

$\begin{aligned}m(\mathrm{O_2}) &= n(\mathrm{O_2}) \cdot M(\mathrm{O_2}) \\ &\approx 0.271996\; \rm mol \times 31.998\; \rm g \cdot mol^{-1} \approx 8.70331 \; \rm g \end{aligned}$ .

That would correspond to the theoretical yield of $\rm O_2$ (in term of the mass of the product.)

Given that the actual yield is $5.6\; \rm g$ , calculate the percentage yield:

$\begin{aligned}\text{Percentage Yield} &= \frac{\text{Actual Yield}}{\text{Theoretical Yield}} \times 100\% \\ &\approx \frac{5.6\; \rm g}{8.70331\; \rm g} \times 100\% \approx 64\%\end{aligned}$ .

An organic compound in which a carbonyl group is bonded to two different carbon atoms is a ketone. The ketones are organic compounds in which a carbonyl group (C=O) is bonded to two carbon atom. A carbonyl group is a carbon-oxygen double bond. Ketones are of great importance in industry and in biology, <span>as solvents, polymer precursors, and pharmaceuticals.</span>
