Answer:

Potassium (K) has 19 protons.

Each neutral atom of Potassium has 19 electrons.

Explanation:

A) Potassium has 19 protons because the atomic number tells us how many protons are in an atom of the element. (The atomic number is the number above the element symbol. For example, the number above "K" is 19, which is the atomic number).

B) If an atom is neutral, this means that the atom has neutral energy. Protons give positive energy and electrons give negative energy. For the atom to be neutral, the atom must have balanced energy, therefore, making the number of electrons equal to the number of protons in a neutral atom.

Aspirin sun thesis Green Chemistry and Assime the aspirin is prepared by the following reaction and that 10.09. of salicylic aci

klemol [59]

Answer: The percentage yield of aspirin is 38.02 %.

Explanation:

To calculate the number of moles, we use the equation:

$\text{Number of moles}=\frac{\text{Given mass}}{\text{Molar mass}}$ .....(1)

For salicylic acid:

Given mass of salicylic acid $(C_7H_6O_3)$ = 10.09 g

Molar mass of salicylic acid $(C_7H_6O_3)$ = 138.12 g/mol

Putting values in equation 1, we get:

$\text{Moles of salicylic acid}=\frac{10.09g}{138.12g/mol}=0.0730mol$

The chemical equation for the formation of aspirin follows:

$C_7H_6O_3+C_4H_6O_3\rightarrow C_9H_8O_4+CH_3COOH$

As, acetic anhydride is present in excess. So, it is considered as an excess reagent.

Thus, salicylic acid is a limiting reagent because it limits the formation of products.

By Stoichiometry of the reaction:

1 mole of salicylic acid produces 1 mole of aspirin.

So, 0.0730 moles of salicylic acid will produce = $\frac{1}{1}\times 0.0730=0.0730mol$ of aspirin

Now, calculating the mass of aspirin from equation 1, we get:

Molar mass of aspirin = 180.16 g/mol

Moles of aspirin = 0.073 moles

Putting values in equation 1, we get:

$0.073mol=\frac{\text{Mass of aspirin}}{180.16g/mol}\\\\\text{Mass of aspirin}=13.15g$

To calculate the percentage yield of aspirin, we use the equation:

$\%\text{ yield}=\frac{\text{Experimental yield}}{\text{Theoretical yield}}\times 100$

Experimental yield of aspirin = 5.0 g

Theoretical yield of aspirin = 13.15 g

Putting values in above equation, we get:

$\%\text{ yield of aspirin}=\frac{5.0g}{13.15g}\times 100\\\\\% \text{yield of aspirin}=38.02\%$

Hence, the percent yield of aspirin is 38.01 %.

How many moles of h2o are produced when using 7 moles of h2

Olenka [21]

1) Write the balaced chemical equation:

H2 + 2O2 → 2H2O

2) Infere the molar ratios:

1 mol H2 : 2 mol of water

3) Make the calculus as the direct proportion relation:

[2 mol H2O] / [1 mol H2] * 7 mol H2 = 14 mol H2

As you see you produce the double number of moles of H2O than number of moles of H2 used.

Answer: 14 moles
