Dichlorine monoxide, Cl2O is sometimes used as a powerful chlorinating agent in research. It can be produced by passing chlorine

gas over heated mercury (II) oxide according to the following equation: HgO + Cl2 ????HgCl2 + Cl2O What is the percent yield, if the quantity of the reactants is sufficient to produce 0.86g of Cl2O but only 0.71 g is obtained?

Answer:

% yield =  82.5%

Explanation:

HgO + 2Cl₂ →  HgCl₂ +  Cl₂O

Our reactants are:

  • HgO and Cl₂

Our products are:

  • HgCl₂ +  Cl₂O

We do not have information about moles of reactants, but we do know the theoretical yield and the grams of product, in this case Cl₂O, we have produced.

Percent yield = (Yield produced / Theoretical yield) . 100

Theoretical yield is the mass of product which is produced by sufficent reactant. We replace data:

% yield = (0.71 g/0.86g) . 100 = 82.5%

Answer:

The mass of the surrounding is M_t = 263.9 \ g

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

      The mass of  NaOH is  m = 13.9 \ g

      The mass of water is m_w = 250.0g

      The chemical equation for the dissociation process is

       NaOH _{(s) } ---> Na^{+}_{(aq)} + OH^{-} _{(aq)}

       The specific heat capacity of the mixture is c_p = 4.18 J g^{-1} C^{-1}

       

The combined mass of the solution is

         M_t = 13 + 250

         M_t = 263.9 \ g

The mass of the surround here is the mass of the coffee-cup calorimeter and this contain the mixture ( water and the NaOH ) so the mass of the surrounding is  

  M_t = 263.9 \ g

Gemiola [76]
We know that domestic dogs are descended from wolves. Exactly when and how this occurred is still being studied; many experts indicate that dogs were first domesticated about 12,000 years ago, but a few DNA studies indicate a much earlier date for the split between the wolf and the dog, perhaps as long ago as 130,000 years. Regardless of the exact timing of the divergence between wolves and dogs, one thing is true: both species display quite a bit of genetic diversity, particularly in size and coloration.In order to breed a dog of a specific size, all one has to do is choose parents with the appropriate variations. For instance, if you want to create a small dog breed, you would just breed the smallest dogs you have, then you would choose their smallest offspring to breed the next generation, and so on until you have reached the desired size.

If the half-life of a radioactive substances is 590 million years and you have 40 atoms of it, how many half-lives will have pas
Nady [450]

Answer:

3

Explanation:

Applying,

2^{n'} = R/R'............... Equation 1

Where n' = number of halflives that have passed, R = Original atom of the substance, R' = atom of the substance left after decay.

From the question,

Given: R = 40 atoms, R' = 5 atoms

Substitute these values into equation 1

2^{n'} = 40/5

2^{n'} = 8

2^{n'} = 2³

Equation the base,

n' = 3
