The percentage of yield was 777.78%

<u>Explanation:</u>

We have the equation,

Be [s]  +  2 HCl [aq]  →  BeCl 2(aq]  + H 2(g]  ↑ Be (s]  + 2 HCl [aq]  →  BeCl 2(aq]  + H 2(g] ↑

To find the percent yield we have the formula

Percentage of Yield= what you actually get/ what you should theoretically get  x 100

                                   =3.5 g/0.45 g 100

                                    = 777.78 %

The percentage of yield was 777.78%

Why do we use a double arrow in the dissociation equation for a weak acid answer?
Zepler [3.9K]
Answer is: because weak acids do not dissociate completely.

The strength of an Arrhenius acid determines percentage of ionization of acid and the number of H⁺ ions formed. <span>
Strong acids completely ionize in water and give large amount ofhydrogen ions (H</span>⁺), so we use only one arrow, because reaction goes in one direction and there no molecules of acid in solution.

For example hydrochloric acid: HCl(aq) → H⁺(aq) + Cl⁻(aq).

<span> Weak acid partially ionize in water and give only a few hydrogen ions (H</span>⁺), in the solution there molecules of acid and ions.

For example cyanide acid: HCN(aq) ⇄ H⁺(aq) + CN⁻(aq).

Mass = 200.0 g volume = 100.0cm3 What is the density?
Marianna [84]
The density of an object is defined as its mass divided by its volume. Mathematically, density = Mass / Volume. The unit of density is kilogram per cubic meter, kg / m^3 or g /cm^3.
For the question given above: the 
Mass = 200.0 g
Volume = 100.0 cm^3
Therefore, Density = Mass / Volume = 200 / 100  = 2
Thus,  the density of the object is 2 g /cm^3.

Explain why calcium (Ca) has a greater atomic radius than magnesium (Mg).
g100num [7]

Answer:

Magnesium nucleus will attract the electrons more toward it and therefore, shrinking the size of the atom. Magnesium atom is smaller than Calcium atom because Calcium has more electron ( 20e− ) which will occupy more energy levels ( n=4 for Calcium versus n=3 for Magnesium)

How can you tell S-wave arrival from the end of the P-wave?
Margarita [4]

Answer:

<h2>The P wave will be the first wiggle that is bigger than the rest of the little ones (the microseisms). Because P waves are the fastest seismic waves, they will usually be the first ones that your seismograph records. The next set of seismic waves on your seismogram will be the S waves</h2>
