When 500.0 g of water is decomposed by electrolysis and the yield of hydrogen is only 75.3%, how much hydrogen chloride can be m

ade if the yield of hydrogen chloride in the second reaction is 69.8%? Oxygen and chlorine and in excess.
2H₂O → 2H₂ + O₂ 75.3 % yield
H₂ + Cl₂ → 2HCl 69.8% yield

The amount of hydrogen chloride that can be made is 1064 g

Why?

The two reactions are:

2H₂O → 2H₂ + O₂ 75.3 % yield

H₂ + Cl₂ → 2HCl 69.8% yield

We have to apply a big conversion factor to go from grams of water (The limiting reactant), to grams of HCl, the final product. We have to be very careful with the coefficients and percentage yields!

500.0gH_2O*\frac{1moleH_2O}{18.01 gH_2O}*\frac{2 moles H_2}{2 moles H_2O}*\frac{2.015g H_2}{1 mole H_2}*\frac{75.3 actual g}{100 theoretical g}=42.12 g H_2

42.12H_2*\frac{1 mole H_2}{2.015gH_2}*\frac{2 moles HCl}{1 mole H_2}*\frac{36.46g}{1 mole HCl}*\frac{69.8 actualg}{100 theoreticalg} =1064gHCl

Have a nice day!

-Dominant- [34]

Answer:

The answer is B. Van der Waals forces are weaker than ionic and covalent bonds.

Explanation:

In general, if we arrange these molecular forces from the strongest to weakest, it would be like this:

Covalent bonds > Ionic bonds > Hydrogen bonds > Dipole-Dipole Interactions > Van der Waals forces

Covalent bonds are known to have the strongest and most stable bonds since they go deep and into the inter-molecular state. A diamond is an example of a compound with this characteristic bond.

Ionic bonds are the next strongest molecular bond following covalent bonds. This is due to the protons and electrons causing an electro-static force which results to the strong bonds. An example would be Sodium Chloride (NaCl), which when separated is Na⁺ and Cl⁻.

Van der Waals forces, also known as Dispersion forces, are the weakest type of molecular bonds. They are only formed through residual molecular attractions when molecules pass by each other. It doesn't even last long due to the uneven electron dispersion. It can be made stronger by adding more electrons in the molecule. This kind of molecular bonds appear in non-polar molecules such as carbon dioxide.

What is the parent isotope when Cl-33 is formed during a beta decay?
zzz [600]

Answer:

33/16 S

Explanation:

In beta decay, the atomic number of the daughter nucleus increases by one unit while the mass of the daughter nucleus remains the same as that of the parent nucleus.

Hence, if we know that a beta decay has occurred, then the parent nucleus must have the same mass as its daughter nucleus but have an atomic number that is less than that of the daughter nucleus by only one unit, hence the answer above.
