Answer:
See explanation
Explanation:
The equation of the reaction is;
C3H8 + 5O2 ----> 3CO2 + 4H2O
Number of moles of C3H8 = 132.33g/44g/mol = 3 moles
1 mole of C3H8 yields 3 moles of CO2
3 moles of C3H8 yields 3 × 3/1 = 9 moles of CO2
Number of moles of oxygen = 384.00 g/32 g/mol = 12 moles
5 moles of oxygen yields 3 moles of CO2
12 moles of oxygen yields 12 × 3/5 = 7.2 moles of CO2
Hence C3H8 is the limiting reactant.
Mass of CO2 produced = 9 moles of CO2 × 44 g/mol = 396 g of CO2
1 moles of C3H8 yields 4 moles of water
3 moles of C3H8 yields 3 × 4/1 = 12 moles of water
Mass of water = 12 moles of water × 18 g/mol = 216 g of water
b) Actual yield = 269.34 g
Theoretical yield = 396 g
% yield = actual yield/theoretical yield × 100/1
% yield = 269.34 g /396 g × 100
% yield = 68%
The charge that 3 protons, 3 neutrons and 2 electrons have is that it will be a cation of Li with a charge of +1.
Li^+1.
<h3><u>Answer;</u></h3>
Cations are much smaller than their corresponding parent
<h3><u>Explanation;</u></h3>
- Parent atom has more electrons and thus the effective nuclear charge on each electron is less.
- When a cation is formed electron(s) is/are lost. Thus the effective nuclear charge or simply put, the attraction of the nucleus towards the electrons increases. Therefore, due to greater pull, the nucleus pulls the shells towards it, there by reducing the size, which makes cations smaller than their corresponding parent.
