Answer:
Theoretical yield = 3.52 g
Percent yield =65.34%
Explanation:
Given data:
Mass of HgO = 46.8 g
Theoretical yield of O₂ = ?
Percent yield of O₂ = ?
Actual yield of O₂ = 2.30 g
Solution:
Chemical equation:
2HgO → 2Hg + O₂
Number of moles of HgO = mass/ molar mass
Number of moles of HgO = 46.8 g / 216.6 g/mol
Number of moles of HgO = 0.22 mol
Now we will compare the moles of HgO with oxygen.
HgO : O₂
2 : 1
0.22 : 1/2×0.22 = 0.11 mol
Theoretical yield:
Mass of oxygen = number of moles × molar mass
Mass of oxygen = 0.11 mol × 32 g/mol
Mass of oxygen = 3.52 g
Percent yield :
Percent yield = actual yield / theoretical yield × 100
Percent yield = 2.30 g/ 3.52 g × 100
Percent yield =65.34%
The chemical formula for the compound magnesium perchlorate is Mg(ClO₄)₂
Magnesium perchlorate or Mg(ClO₄)₂ is an ionic compound.
Perchlorate here is an anion which is represented by ClO₄⁻. Perchlorate is a polyatiomic anion, where one Cl atom is bonded to four O atoms.
The magnesium cation is represented by Mg²⁺
So one Mg²⁺ cation combines with two ClO₄⁻ anion to form one molecule of Mg(ClO₄)₂
