hey there!:
2HgO (s) => 2Hg (l) + O2 (g)
2 moles of HgO decompose to form 2 moles of Hg and 1 mole of O2 according to the reaction mentioned in the question.
So 4.00 moles of HgO must give 4 moles of Hg and 2 moles of O2 theoretically.
603 g of Hg = 603 / 200.6 = 3 moles
Percent yield = ( actual yield / theoretical yield) * 100
= ( 3/4) * 100
= 75 %
Hope this helps!
Answer:
146.3g NaCl (mol NaCl/58.44g NaCl) = 2.50 mol NaCl
1.5M NaCl = 1.5 mol NaCl / 1 L = 2.5 mol NaCl / x L, solve for x
x L = 2.5 mol NaCl / 1.5 mol NaCl = 1.66 L
It gives the answer and all the working.
To put it another way:
Dividing the amount required by the molar mass
we quickly see that 2.5 moles are required.
One litre of 1.5 molar solution gives 1.5 moles
we need a further mole, which is 2/3 of 1.5 so 2/3 of a litre.
