Aluminum chloride, AlCl3, is an inexpensive reagent used in many industrial processes. It is made by treating scrap aluminum wit

mylen [45]

Answer:

83.8%

Explanation:

The balanced reaction equation is;

2Al(s) + 3Cl2(g) → 2AlCl3(s)

Now we have to obtain the limiting reactant as the reactant that produces the least amount of AlCl3

Amount of Al = 3.11g/27 g/mol = 0.115 moles

If 2 moles of Al yields 2 moles of AlCl3

Then 0.115 moles of Al yields 0.115 moles of AlCl3

For Cl2

Amount of Cl2 = 5.32 g/71 g/mol= 0.075 moles

If 3 moles of Cl2 yields 2 moles of AlCl3

0.075 moles of Cl2 yields 0.075 * 2/3 = 0.05 moles of AlCl3

Hence Cl2 is the limiting reactant

Theoretical yield of AlCl3 = 0.05 moles of AlCl3 * 133g/mol = 6.65 g

%yield = actual yield /theoretical yield * 100

%yield = 5.57 g/6.65 g * 100

%yield = 83.8%

The analysis of a compound gives the following percent composition by mass: C: 52.14 percent; H: 9.946 percent; S: 12.66 percent

wariber [46]

Answer:

C11H25SO4

Explanation:

The total mass of the compound is 253.4 g, so, the mass of each element will be:

C: 52.14% of 253.4 = 0.5214x253.4 = 132.12 g

H: 9.946% of 253.4 = 0.09946x253.4 = 25.20 g

S: 12.66% of 253.4 = 0.1266x253.4 = 32.08 g

O: 25.26% of 253.4 = 0.2526x253.4 = 64.00 g

The molar mass are: C = 12 g/mol, H 1 g/mol, S = 32 g/mol, and O = 16 g/mol

So, to know how much moles will be, just divide the mass calculated above for the molar mass:

C: 132.12/12 = 11 moles

H: 25.20/ 1 = 25 moles

S: 32.08/32 = 1 mol

O: 64.00/16 = 4 moles

So the molecular formula is C11H25SO4

The solubility of nitrogen gas at 25 ◦C and 1 atm is 6.8×10−4 mol/L. If the partial pressure of nitrogen gas in air is 0.76 atm,

iris [78.8K]

Answer:

Concentration of dissolved nitrogen = 5.2 × 10⁻⁴ mol/L

Explanation:

More the pressure of the gas, more will be its solubility.

So, for two different pressure, the relation between them is shown below as:-

$\frac {P_1}{C_1}=\frac {P_2}{C_2}$

Given ,

P₁ = 1 atm

P₂ = 0.76 atm

C₁ = 6.8 × 10⁻⁴ mol/L

C₂ = ?

Using above equation as:

$\frac{1\ atm}{6.8\times 10^{-4}\ mol/L}=\frac{0.76\ atm}{C_2}$

$C_2=\frac{0.76\times 6.8\times 10^{-4}}{1}\ mol/L$

<u>Concentration of dissolved nitrogen = 5.2 × 10⁻⁴ mol/L</u>

What is the salt formers group number is?

NeTakaya

The halogens are five non-metallic elements found in group 17 of the periodic table. The term "halogen" means "salt-former" and compounds containing halogens are called "salts". All halogens have 7 electrons in their outer shells, giving them an oxidation number of -1.
