Used mainly in the context of Geography a Constructive force is involved in making new land while a Destructive force breaks the land. As they are carrying opposite functions to one another they are considered as competing forces.

A reaction of 41.9 g of Na and 30.3 g of Br2 yields 36.4 g of NaBr . What is the percent yield?

Licemer1 [7]

Answer: The percent yield is, 93.4%

Explanation:

First we have to calculate the moles of Na.

$\text{Moles of Na}=\frac{\text{Mass of Na}}{\text{Molar mass of Na}}=\frac{41.9g}{23g/mole}=1.82moles$

Now we have to calculate the moles of $Br_2$

${\text{Moles of}Br_2} = \frac{\text{Mass of }Br_2 }{\text{Molar mass of} Br_2} =\frac{30.3g}{160g/mole}=0.189moles$

${\text{Moles of } NaBr} = \frac{\text{Mass of } NaBr }{\text{Molar mass of } NaBr} =\frac{36.4g}{103g/mole}=0.353moles$

The balanced chemical reaction is,

$2Na(s)+Br_2(g)\rightarrow 2NaBr$

As, 1 mole of bromine react with = 2 moles of Sodium

So, 0.189 moles of bromine react with = $\frac{2}{1}\times 0.189=0.378$ moles of Sodium

Thus bromine is the limiting reagent as it limits the formation of product and Na is the excess reagent.

As, 1 mole of bromine give = 2 moles of Sodium bromide

So, 0.189 moles of bromine give = $\frac{2}{1}\times 0.189=0.378$ moles of Sodium bromide

Now we have to calculate the percent yield of reaction

$\%\text{ yield}=\frac{\text{Actual yield}}{\text{Theoretical yield}}\times 100=\frac{0.353 mol}{0.378}\times 100=93.4\%$

Therefore, the percent yield is, 93.4%

Which term is de ned as the region in an atom where an electron is most likely to be located?

charle [14.2K]

Orbital
All atoms have the same number of electrons as protons. Negative electrons are attracted to the positive nucleus. This force of attraction keeps electrons constantly moving around the nucleus. The region where an electron is most likely to be found is called an orbital.
Here you go :)

How many liters of C3H6O are present in a sample weighing 25.6 grams?

Romashka [77]

Answer:

V = 0.0327 L.

Explanation:

Hello there!

In this case, according to the given information, it turns out possible for us to calculate the liters of C3H6O by the definition of density. We can tell the density of this substance as that of acetone (0.784 g/mL) and therefore calculate the liters as shown below:

$V=25.6g*\frac{1mL}{0.784g}*\frac{1L}{1000mL}\\\\V=0.0327L$
