Answer:

Minerals can form in three primary ways being precipitation, crystallization from a magma and solid- state transformation by chemical reactions (metamorphism). Mineral Precipitation is when a mineral is formed by crystallization from a solution. Examples include quartz, halite (table salt), calcite, and gypsum.

Answer:

When magma cools slowly, deep below the surface, it has time to form large crystals in regular patterns. The second way that minerals form is through solutions. (A solution is when one substance is dissolved uniformly in a liquid.) When elements and compounds leave the solution, they can crystalize.

You dissolve 8.65 grams of lead(l) nitrate in water and then you add 2 50 grams of aluminum. This reaction occurs 2AI(S)+ 3Pb(NO

olga55 [171]

Answer: The theoretical yield of solid lead comes out to be 5.408 grams.

Explanation:

To calculate the moles, we use the following equation:

$\text{Number of moles}=\frac{\text{Given mass}}{\text{Molar mass}}$

Moles of Lead nitrate:

Given mass of lead nitrate = 8.65 grams

Molar mass of lead nitrate = 331.2 g/mol

Putting values in above equation, we get:

$\text{Number of moles}=\frac{8.65g}{331.2g/mol}=0.0261moles$

Moles of Aluminium:

Given mass of aluminium = 2.5 grams

Molar mass of aluminium = 27 g/mol

Putting values in above equation, we get:

$\text{Number of moles}=\frac{2.5g}{27g/mol}=0.0925moles$

For the given chemical reaction, the equation follows:

$2AI(s)+3Pb(NO_3)_2(aq.)\rightarrow 3Pb(s)+2AI(NO3)_3(aq.$

By Stoichiometry:

3 moles of lead nitrate reacts with 2 moles of aluminium

So, 0.0261 moles of lead nitrate are produced by = $\frac{2}{3}\times 0.0261=0.0174moles$ of aluminium.

As, the required amount of aluminium is less than the given amount. Hence, it is considered as the excess reagent.

Lead nitrate is considered as a limiting reagent because it limits the formation of product.

By Stoichiometry of the reaction:

3 moles of lead nitrate are produces 3 moles of lead metal.

So, 0.0261 moles of lead nitrate will produce = $\frac{3}{3}\times 0.0261=0.0261moles$ of lead metal.

Now, to calculate the grams or theoretical yield of lead metal, we put in the mole's equation, we get:

Molar mass of lead = 207.2 g/mol

Putting values in above equation, we get:

$0.0261mol=\frac{\text{Given mass}}{207.2g/mol}$

Mass of lead = 5.408 grams

Hence, the theoretical yield of solid lead comes out to be 5.408 grams.
