What do chemists use percent yield calculations for in the real world?

Chemistry
1 answer:
STALIN [3.7K]3 years ago
8 0

Answer:

C. To determine how efficient reactions are.

D. To determine how much reactant they need.

Explanation:

When you are doing a reaction, you are hoping for a percent yield to close of 100%. You make the reaction and determine how many product you obtain. If you know the percent yield of a reaction you can calculate the amount of reactant you need to obtain a determined amount of product.

Having this in mind:

A. To balance the reaction equation.  false. To calculate percent yield you need to balance the reaction before. You don't use percent yield to balance the reaction

B. To determine how much product they will need.  false. You determine how much product you obtain after the reaction. How much product you need is independent of percent yield

C. To determine how efficient reactions are.  true. A way to determine efficience of a reaction is with percent yield. An efficient reaction has a high percent yield.

D. To determine how much reactant they need. true. If you know percent yield of a reaction you can know how many reactant you must add to obtain  the amount of product you want.

lisabon 2012 [21]

Answer : The partial pressure of N_2,H_2\text{ and }NH_3 at equilibrium are, 1.133, 2.009, 0.574 bar respectively. The total pressure at equilibrium is, 3.716 bar

Solution :  Given,

Initial pressure of N_2 = 1.42 bar

Initial pressure of H_2 = 2.87 bar

K_p = 0.036

The given equilibrium reaction is,

                              N_2(g)+H_2(g)\rightleftharpoons 2NH_3(g)

Initially                   1.42      2.87             0

At equilibrium    (1.42-x)  (2.87-3x)     2x

The expression of K_p will be,

K_p=\frac{(p_{NH_3})^2}{(p_{N_2})(p_{H_2})^3}

Now put all the values of partial pressure, we get

0.036=\frac{(2x)^2}{(1.42-x)\times (2.87-3x)^3}

By solving the term x, we get

x=0.287\text{ and }3.889

From the values of 'x' we conclude that, x = 3.889 can not more than initial partial pressures. So, the value of 'x' which is equal to 3.889 is not consider.

Thus, the partial pressure of NH_3 at equilibrium = 2x = 2 × 0.287 = 0.574 bar

The partial pressure of N_2 at equilibrium = (1.42-x) = (1.42-0.287) = 1.133 bar

The partial pressure of H_2 at equilibrium = (2.87-3x) = [2.87-3(0.287)] = 2.009 bar

The total pressure at equilibrium = Partial pressure of N_2 + Partial pressure of H_2 + Partial pressure of NH_3

The total pressure at equilibrium = 1.133 + 2.009 + 0.574 = 3.716 bar

A giant mass of air that carries warm weather to regions of the earth?
Scilla [17]
Continental air masses are characterized by dry air near the surface while maritime air masses are moist .Polar air masses are characterized by cold air near the surface while tropical air masses are warm or hot. Arctic air masses are extremely cold.

2) what is the mass of 6.02 x 1023 atoms of arsenic?
zzz [600]
Data:
Arsenic Molar Mass = 74,9216 ≈ 75 u (<span>atomic mass unit)</span>

Solving:

1 mole of arsenic → 75g ------------ 6,02*10²³ molecules
..................................X -------------- 1 molecule

6,02*10²³X = 75
x = \frac{75}{6,02*10^{23}}
\boxed{x \approx 1,24*10^{24}grams}
