The oh concentration in a 1.0 x10 3 m ba oh 2 solution is

Lisa [10]

Ba(OH)2 dissociates according to the equation below to yield Barium ions and hydroxide ions.
Ba(OH)2 = Ba²⁺ + 2 OH⁻
The concentration of Ba²⁺ is 1.0 ×10^-3 M
Thus that of OH⁻ ions will be 2× 1.0 ×10^-3 = 2.0 × 10^-3 M
Thus; the answer is 2.0 × 10^-3 M

10.000g of boron (B) combines with hydrogento form 11.554g of a pure compound. What is the empirical formula of this compound?

Citrus2011 [14]

Answer:

B3H5

Explanation:

The law of conservation of mass states that matter in an closed system is neither created nor destroyed by physical transformations or chemical reactions but changes from one form to the other.

That is, the sum of masses of the reactants = The sum of masses of the product

10.00g of Boron + x grams of Hydrogen = 11.55g of the product

Mass of hydrogen = 11.55 - 10.00 = 1.55g

Molar mass of Boron = 10.811g

Molar mass of Hydrogen = 1.00784g

Number of moles of Boron = (mass of Boron)/(molar mass of Boron) = 10/10.811 = 0.9249 mols

Number of moles of Hydrogen = (mass of Hydrogen)/(molar mass of Hydrogen) = 1.55/1.00784 =1.5379mols

0.9249 mols of Boron combines with 1.5379mols of Hydrogen

Dividing both sides mols by 0.9249 gives

1 mole of Boron combines with 1.66266 mols of Hydrogen

Converting 1.66266 to fractions we have 1.66266 approximately 5/3

or 1 mole of Boron combines with 5/3 moles of Hydrogen

Multiplying both sides by 3 we have

3 moles of Boron combines with 5 moles of Hydrogen

Molecular formula of the compound is

B3H5

Calculate the percentage yield for the reaction represented by the equation CH4 + 2O2 ? 2H2O + CO2 when 1000 g of CH2 react with

makvit [3.9K]

Answer:

83.64%.

Explanation:

∵ The percent yield = (actual yield/theoretical yield)*100.

actual yield of CO₂ = 2300 g.

We need to find the theoretical yield of CO₂:

For the reaction:

CH₄ + 2O₂ → 2H₂O + CO₂,

1.0 mol of CH₄ react with 2 mol of O₂ to produce 2 mol of H₂O and 1.0 mol of CO₂.

Firstly, we need to calculate the no. of moles of 1000 g of CH₄ using the relation:

no. of moles of CH₄ = mass/molar mass = (1000 g)/(16.0 g/mol) = 62.5 mol.

Using cross-multiplication:

1.0 mol of CH₄ produces → 1.0 mol of CO₂, from stichiometry.

∴ 62.5 mol of CH₄ produces → 62.5 mol of CO₂.

We can calculate the theoretical yield of carbon dioxide gas using the relation:

∴ The theoretical yield of CO₂ gas = n*molar mass = (62.5 mol)(44.0 g/mol) = 2750 g.

∵ The percent yield = (actual yield/theoretical yield)*100.

actual yield = 2300 g, theoretical yield = 2750 g.

∴ the percent yield = (2300 g/2750 g)*100 = 83.64%.
