<span>Salt is the product formed by a reaction in which the hydrogen atoms of an acid are replaced by the atoms of a metal. The salt is formed as a result of the neutralization of the acid by base, that is the metal or positive ion replace the hydrogen ion in the acid. For instance: NaO + H2SO4 = NaSO4 + H2O. In this example, Na [sodium] has replaced the hydrogen in H2SO4, thereby forming the salt NaSO4.</span>
Answer:
C: The actual yield depends on the reaction conditions, but the theoretical yield varies only with reactant amounts
Explanation:
Looking at the options, the correct one is Option C because the actual yield usually depends on the conditions of the reaction, while the theoretical yield usually varies with only the amount of reactant.
Answer:
Part A = The mass of sulfur is 6.228 grams
Part B = The mass of 1 silver atom is 1.79 * 10^-22 grams
Explanation:
Part A
Step 1: Data given
A mixture of carbon and sulfur has a mass of 9.0 g
Mass of the product = 27.1 grams
X = mass carbon
Y = mass sulfur
x + y = 9.0 grams
x = 9.0 - y
x(molar mass CO2/atomic mass C) + y(molar mass SO2/atomic mass S) = 22.6
(9 - y)*(44.01/12.01) + y(64.07/32.07)
(9-y)(3.664) + y(1.998)
32.976 - 3.664y + 1.998y = 22.6
-1.666y = -10.376
y = 6.228 = mass sulfur
x = 9.0 - 6.228 = 2.772 grams = mass C
The mass of sulfur is 6.228 grams
Part B
Calculate the mass, in grams, of a single silver atom (mAg = 107.87 amu ).
Calculate moles of 1 silver atom
Moles = 1/ 6.022*10^23
Moles = 1.66*10^-24 moles
Mass = moles * molar mass
Mass = 1.66*10 ^-24 moles *107.87
Mass = 1.79 * 10^-22 grams
The mass of 1 silver atom is 1.79 * 10^-22 grams
