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%

What happened during the fusion reaction shown?

NARA [144]

Answer:

Nuclear Fusion reactions power the Sun and other stars. In a fusion reaction, two light nuclei merge to form a single heavier nucleus.The process releases energy because the total mass of the resulting single nucleus is less than the mass of the two original nuclei

Explanation:

Nuclear fusion is a process in which atomic nuclei are fused together to form heavier nuclei. ... Like fission, nuclear fusion can also transmute one element into another. For example, hydrogen nuclei fuse in stars to form the element helium.

A solution is prepared by dissolving 0.23 mol of benzoic acid and 0.27 mol of sodium benzoate in water sufficient to yield 1.00

Monica [59]

Answer:

The pH does not decrease drastically because the NaOH reacts with the <u>D) Benzoic acid</u> present in the buffer solution.

Explanation:

The hydroxide ions will react with acidic part of the solutions, it means the benzoic acid, so it will form the conjugate base, the benzoate ion.
