In the balanced reaction shown, there are twice as many moles of water as oxygen. If 13.35 moles of oxygen are reacted, 26.70 moles of water is formed
Because warmer water helps fuel hurricanes, climate change is enlarging the zone where hurricanes can form
The percentage yield obtained from the given reaction above is 74.8%
<h3>Balanced equation </h3>
P₄ + 6Cl₂ → 4PCl₃
Molar mass of P₄ = 31 × 4 = 124 g/mol
Mass of P₄ from the balanced equation = 1 × 124 = 124 g
Molar mass of PCl₃ = 31 + (35.5×3) = 137.5 g/mol
Mass of PCl₃ from the balanced equation = 4 × 137.5 = 550 g
<h3>SUMMARY</h3>
From the balanced equation above,
124 g of P₄ reacted to produce 550 g of PCl₃
<h3>How to determine the theoretical yield </h3>
From the balanced equation above,
124 g of P₄ reacted to produce 550 g of PCl₃
Therefore,
79.12 g of P₄ will react to produce = (79.12 × 550) / 124 = 350.9 g of PCl₃
<h3>How to determine the percentage yield </h3>
- Actual yield of PCl₃ = 262.6 g
- Theoretical yield of PCl₃ = 350.9 g
Percentage yield = (Actual /Theoretical) × 100
Percentage yield = (262.6 / 350.9) × 100
Percentage yield = 74.8%
