I think it’s the third option but I’m not entirely sure
9.74x 2351 that's the answer
3.01 Ă— 10^24 Ă— (12/5) hydrogen atoms
Looking at the formula for the molecule, the ratio of carbon to hydrogen atoms is 5:12, so if we divide the number of carbon atoms by 5 and then multiply by 12, we can find the number of hydrogen atoms. Let's look at the available options and see what makes sense.
3.01 Ă— 10^24 Ă— (12/5) hydrogen atoms
* This is exactly correct.
(3.01 Ă— 10^24 / 5) hydrogen atoms
* Nope. This will tell you how many pentane MOLECULES you have, but not the number of hydrogen atoms.
3.01 Ă— 10^24 Ă— (5/12) hydrogen atoms
* Close, but the ratio (5/12) will tell you the number of carbon atoms you have if you give it the number of hydrogen atoms. So this choice is wrong.
3.01 Ă— 10^24 Ă— 12 hydrogen atoms description
* This would tell you the number of hydrogen atoms you have if you know the number of pentane molecules you have. So this choice is also wrong.

Answer:</h3>
82.11%
<h3>
Explanation:</h3>
We are given;
- Theoretical mass of the product is 137.5 g
- Actual mass of the product is 112.9 g
We are supposed to calculate the percentage yield
- We need to know how percentage yield is calculated;
- To calculate the percentage yield we get the ratio of the actual mass to theoretical mass and express it as a percentage.
Thus;
% yield = (Actual mass ÷ Experimental mass) × 100%
= (112.9 g ÷ 137.5 g) × 100%
= 82.11%
Therefore, the percentage yield of the product is 82.11 %
