Ammonia gas can be prepared by the following reaction:CaO(s) + 2NH4Cl(s) ------> 2NH3(g) + H2O(g) + CaCl2(s)In an experiment,

26.5 g of ammonia gas, NH3, is produced when it was predicted that 54.9 g of NH3 would form.What is the theoretical yield of NH3? What is the actual yeild of NH3? What is the percent yeild of NH3?

Answer:

The theoretical yield of NH3 = 54.9 grams

The actual yield of NH3 = 26.5 grams

The % yield = 48.3 %

Explanation:

Step 1: Data given

Mass of NH3 produced = 26.5 grams

54.9 grams of NH3 was predicted

Step 2: The balanced equation:

CaO(s) + 2NH4Cl(s) → 2NH3(g) + H2O(g) + CaCl2(s)

Step 3: Theoretical yield

The theoretical yield, is the amount of NH3 that is predicted to be formed = 54.9 grams

The actual yield is the amount of NH3 that actual has been formed = 26.5 grams

% yield = (actual yield / theoretical yield)*100 %

% yield = (26.5 grams / 54.9 grams) * 100%

% yield = 48.3 %

KIM [24]

<u>Answer:</u> The sample of Carbon-14 isotope will take 2377.9 years to decay it to 25 %

<u>Explanation:</u>

The equation used to calculate rate constant from given half life for first order kinetics:

t_{1/2}=\frac{0.693}{k}

where,

t_{1/2} = half life of the reaction = 5730 years

Putting values in above equation, we get:

k=\frac{0.693}{5730yrs}=1.21\times 10^{-4}yrs^{-1}

Rate law expression for first order kinetics is given by the equation:

k=\frac{2.303}{t}\log\frac{[A_o]}{[A]}

where,

k = rate constant  = 1.21\times 10^{-4}yr^{-1}

t = time taken for decay process = ? yr

[A_o] = initial amount of the sample = 100 grams

[A] = amount left after decay process =  (100 - 25) = 75 grams

Putting values in above equation, we get:

1.21\times 10^{-4}=\frac{2.303}{t}\log\frac{100}{75}\\\\t=2377.9yrs

Hence, the sample of Carbon-14 isotope will take 2377.9 years to decay it to 25 %

In which of the following types of solution is the rate of dissociation equal to the rate of crystallization? Concentrated Super
Butoxors [25]

In a <u>Saturated </u>solution, the rate of dissociation equal to the rate of crystallization

Explanation:

A saturated solution is one than cannot dissolve any more solute because the solutes inter-molecular spaces are filled with the solute molecules at that temperature. When an attempt is made to dissolve more solute into the solution, the rate at which the solute is dissolved into the solution is equal to the rate at which excess solute is precipitated and crystallized.
