If 0.138g of cyclohexene (c6h10) was obtained from 0.240g of cyclohexanol (c6h120), what is the percentage yield of cyclohexene?
tino4ka555 [31]
<span>Given in the question- 1 mole of cyclohexanol = > 1 mole of cyclohexene Molar mass 100.16 g/mol moles of cyclohexanol = .240 / 100.16= 0.002396 moles Molar mass 82.143 g/mol moles of cyclohexene formed @100 % yield = 0.002396 Molar mass 82.143 g/mol mass of cyclohexene @ 100 % = .002396 x 82.143 = 0.197g bur we have .138g so % yield = .138 / .197 = 70.0 % Ans- 70 percentage yield of cyclohexene.</span>

When 35.47 g of sodium hydroxide react with boric acid (H3BO3), how many moles of sodium borate will be produced?
belka [17]

Answer:

5.83 g

Explanation:

First, you must start with a balanced equation so you can see the mole ratios.

NaOH + H₃BO₃ --> NaBO₂ + 2H₂O

You can see that it takes 1 mole of sodium hydroxide to form 1 mole of sodium borate. 1:1 ratio

Now you must calculate how many moles of NaOH 35.47 g equals.

Na = 22.99 amu

O = 15.99 amu

H = 1.008 amu

NaOH = 39.997 amu

35.47 g ÷ 39.997 amu = 0.08868 moles of NaOH

Since it's a 1:1 ratio, the same number of moles of NaBO₂ is created. Now you must convert moles to grams.

Na = 22.9 amu

B = 10.81 amu

2 O = 31.998 amu

NaBO₂ = 65.798 amu

0.08868 moles x 65.798 = 5.83 g

How did democtitis define atom?
klemol [59]

Democritus, theorized that atoms were specific to the material which they composed. In addition, Democritus believed that the atoms differed in size and shape, were in constant motion in a void, collided with each other; and during these collisions, could rebound or stick together.

<u>Explanation:</u>

  • One of the main atomic theorists was Democritus, a Greek philosopher who lived in the fifth century BC. Democritus realized that if a stone was partitioned fifty-fifty, the two parts would have indistinguishable properties from the whole.
  • Therefore, he contemplated that if the stone were to be constantly cut into littler and littler pieces at that point; sooner or later, there would be a piece that would be so little as to be inseparable. He called these small pieces of matter as "atomos", the Greek word for inseparable.  
  • Democritus estimated that atoms were explicit to the material which they made. Also, Democritus accepted that the particles varied in size, were an inconsistent shape, crashed into one another; and during these impacts, could bounce back or stay together. Hence, changes in the matter were a consequence of separations or mixes of the atoms as they moved all through the void.
