Answer:
73.4% is the percent yield
Explanation:
2KClO₃ → 2KCl + 3O₂
This is a decomposition reaction, where 2 moles of potassium chlorate decompose to 2 moles of potassium chloride and 3 moles of oxygen.
We determine the moles of salt: 400 g . 1. mol /122.5g= 3.26 moles of KClO₃
In the theoretical yield of the reaction we say:
2 moles of potassium chlorate can produce 3 moles of oxygen
Therefore, 3.26 moles of salt, may produce (3.26 . 3) /2 = 4.89 moles of O₂
The mass of produced oxygen is: 4.89 mol . 32 g /1mol = 156.6g
But, we have produced 115 g. Let's determine the percent yield of reaction
Percent yield = (Produced yield/Theoretical yield) . 100
(115g / 156.6g) . 100 = 73.4 %
B. product
Think about it like this: a company produces products, not coefficients.
Y : CCP : 4 atoms
X : tetrahedral voids would be 1/3 × 8 = 8/3
so formula would be Y12X8 or Y3X2 !!
Molar mass is the mass of a given substance divided by the amount of that substance, measured in g/mol.
