Answer:

Here... Since there is excess HCl, you know the Zinc will be the limiting reagent.  I was able to create the reaction equation based on the info you gave: Z + 2HCl ----> ZCl2 +2H.  Now, in order to find the theoretical yield of ZCl, you need to convert Zinc from grams to moles.  Do this by dividing by its molar mass (65.38), thus: 3.68 (g) / 65.38 (g/mol) = 0.056286... moles.  

Now, using the balanced equation we made earlier, we see that 1 mole of Zinc creates 1 mole of ZCl2.  Thus our ratio is 1:1.  This makes the next step easy.  Since it is 1:1, we multiply the number of moles we have of Zinc (0.056286...) by the number of moles it will create of ZCl (1).  (0.056286)(1) = 0.056286 moles ZCl.  Now convert this to grams by multiplying by its molar mass (136.28) and you get 7.67 grams.  This is your theoretical yield.  The percent yield is found by dividing the actual amount obtained (7.12 g.) by the theoretical yield (7.67 g.) then multiply that by 100%.   When this is done, your Percent Yield is about 92.8%

Answer:

0.085 kg

Explanation:

1 g=0.001 kg  OR 1 kg=1000 g

 so \frac{85}{1000}=0.085 kg

Summary If you were a conservation scientist, what would you like most about your job?
hodyreva [135]

Explanation:

A conservationist is someone who advocates and champions the cause to protect the environment and use earth's resource in a sustainable way.

One of the interesting perks of being a conservationist is the ability to preserve pristine nature.

  • This aspect would most fascinate me.
  • The joy of having to enact laws and policies that would preserve very vital aspect of the ecosystem would such a great delight.
  • Also, having to champion the cause of indigenous people in whose voices are not often disseminated is a good catch

zhuklara [117]

Answer:

1) Add more sulfate ions.

2) 1 M K₂SO₄.

Explanation:

<em>1) Which of the following actions would shift this reaction toward solid barium sulfate?</em>

<em></em>

  • Le Châtelier's principle states that if a stress is applied to a system at equilibrium, the system will shift to relieve that stress and attain the equilibrium again.

Add more sulfate ions will increase the concentration of the products side, so the reaction will be shifted towards the reactants side to relieve the stress and attain the equilibrium again.

<em>So, the right choice is: Add more sulfate ions.</em>

<em></em>

<em>2) In which of the following would barium sulfate be least soluble?  </em>

The answer is 1 M K₂SO₄, it has a common ion effect of SO₄⁻ ions that increase the concentration of the products side, so the reaction will be shifted towards the reactants side to relieve the stress and attain the equilibrium again.

<em>So, the solubility will decrease.</em>
