You have 2.2 mol Xe and 2.0 mol F₂, but when you carry out the reaction you end up with only 0.25 mol XeF₄. What is the percent

yield of this experiment? Xe(g) + 2 F₂ (g) → XeF₄ (g)

Answer:

The correct answer is 25 %

Explanation:

According to the chemical reaction:

Xe(g) + 2 F₂ (g) → XeF₄ (g)

1 mol of Xe(g) reacts with 2 mol of F₂(g), so the stoichiometric ratio os reactants is 2 mol F₂/mol Xe.

We have 2.2 mol Xe and 2.0 mol F₂, so the ratio is:

2.0 mol F₂/2.2 mol Xe = 0.909 mol F₂/mol Xe

The molar ratio of reactant we have is lower than the required, so F₂ is the limiting reactant.

By using the limiting reactant, we calculate the theoretical amount of product (XeF₄). For this, we know that 1 mol of XeF₄ is formed from 2 mol of F₂ (1 mol XeF₄/ 2 mol F₂), and we have 2.0 mol F₂:

2.0 mol F₂ x (1 mol XeF₄/ 2 mol F₂)= 1 mol XeF₄

If we only obtained 0.25 mol XeF₄, the percent yield of the experiment is:

Yield = experimental amount/theoretical amount x 100%

        = 0.25 mol XeF₄/ 1 mol XeF₄ x 100% = 25 %

A layer of sandstone is found on top of a layer of shale. What most likely happened in this area?
storchak [24]

Answer:

Mud was deposited first, then sand.

Explanation:

This could have been a tidal mud flat succeeded by a sandy beach, or along the bed and course of a river with either mountain building upstream causing faster flow and carrying of mud farther away or the sea level falling with mud deposits being found closer to the new coastline. Hope this helps!
