Answer:

The percentage yields are as follows :

a) 64.28%

b) 58.03%

c) 69.46%

d) 79.31%

Explanation:

The percentage yield is the ratio of the actual yield of a product to the expected or theoretical yield expressed as a percentage.

Percent yield = actual yield/theoretical yield x 100%

a) from the question, expected yield is 68.3 g whilst the actual yield is 43.9 g

therefore,

Percentage yield = 43.9 g/68.3 g x 100%

                             =  0.64275 x 100%

                             =  64.28%

b) From the question, expected yield is 0.0722 mol while the actual yield is 0.0419 mol. Therefore

Percentage yield = 0.0419 /0.0722 x 100%

                             = 0.58033 x 100%

                             = 58.03%

c) A limiting reactant is the reactant is is completely used in a recation to form a product. That is, it is the reactant that is not in excess.

From the equation of the reaction :

CH3COOH + CH3CH2OH --> CH3COOCH2CH3 + H2O

1 mole of ethanol reacts with 1 mole of acetic acid to give 1 mole of ethyl acetate.

From the question, ethanol is the limiting reactant because it is not in excess. Hence,

4.29 mole of ethanol should produce 4.29 mole of ethyl acetate (expected yield).

However only 2.98 mol of ethyl acetate is produced (actual yield)

Percentage yield = 2.98mol/4.29 mol x 100%

                            =  0.69463 x 100%

                            = 69.46%

d) From the question, acetic acid is in excess hence ethanol is the limiting reactant

therefore from the equation of the reaction:

1 mole of ethanol reacts with 1 mole of acetic acid to give 1 mole of ethyl acetate.

0,58 mol of ethanol should produce 0.58 mol of ethyl acetate (expected yield)

But 0.46 mol of ethyl acetae was produced (actual yield)

Percentage yield = 0.46mol /0.58 mol x 100%

                             = 0.79310 x 100%

                              = 79.31%

How can equilibrium of a closed system chemical reaction be disturbed? Select all that apply.
charle [14.2K]

The correct answers are :

Changing the volume of the system.

Changing the temperature of the system.

Equilibrium will remain unaffected if the concentration of products and reactants are kept the same, and the temperature of the system is kept constant.

As the system is closed, we cannot add or remove products or reactants.

Change in temperature will shift the chemical equilibrium towards the reactant or product depending on whether the reaction is exothermic or endothermic.

Also change in volume  will shift the chemical equilibrium of a chemical reaction if the reactants or products or both are gases.
