Answer:

- 13.56 g of sodium chloride are theoretically yielded.

- Limiting reactant is copper (II) chloride and excess reactant is sodium nitrate.

- 0.50 g of sodium nitrate remain when the reaction stops.

- 92.9 % is the percent yield.

Explanation:

Hello!

In this case, according to the question, it is possible to set up the following chemical reaction:

CuCl_2+2NaNO_3\rightarrow 2NaCl+Cu(NO_3)_2

Thus, we can first identify the limiting reactant by computing the yielded mass of sodium chloride, NaCl, by each reactant via stoichiometry:

m_{NaCl}^{by\ CuCl_2}=15.6gCuCl_2*\frac{1molCuCl_2}{134.45gCuCl_2} *\frac{2molNaCl}{1molCuCl_2} *\frac{58.44gNaCl}{1molNaCl} =13.56gNaCl\\\\m_{NaCl}^{by\ NaNO_3}=20.2gNaNO_3*\frac{1molNaNO_3}{84.99gNaNO_3} *\frac{2molNaCl}{2molNaNO_3} *\frac{58.44gNaCl}{1molNaCl} =13.89gNaCl

Thus, we infer that copper (II) chloride is the limiting reactant as it yields the fewest grams of sodium chloride product. Moreover the formed grams of this product are 13.56 g. Then, we take 13.56 g of sodium chloride to compute the consumed mass sodium nitrate as it is in excess:

m_{NaNO_3}^{by\ NaCl}=13.56gNaCl*\frac{1molNaCl}{58.44gNaCl}*\frac{2molNaNO_3}{2molNaCl} *\frac{84.99gNaNO_3}{1molNaNO_3}=19.72gNaNO_3

Therefore, the leftover of sodium nitrate is:

m_{NaNO_3}^{leftover}=20.2g-19.7g=0.5gNaNO_3

Finally, the percent yield is computed via:

Y=\frac{12.6g}{13.56g} *100\%\\\\Y=92.9\%

Best regards!

Consider the reaction: 2HI(g) ⇄ H2(g) + I2(g). It is found that, when equilibrium is reached at a certain temperature, HI is 35.
Sliva [168]

Answer:

Kc = 0.075

Explanation:

The dissociation (α) is the initial quantity that ionized divided by the total dissolved. So, let's calling x the ionized quantity, and M the initial one:

α = x/M

x = M*α

x = 0.354M

For the stoichiometry of the reaction (2:1:1), the concentration of H₂ and I₂ must be half of the acid. So the equilibrium table must be:

2HI(g) ⇄   H₂(g) +    I₂(g)

M               0             0               <em> Initial</em>

-0.354M  +0.177M  +0.177M       <em>Reacts</em>

0.646M     0.177M   0.177M        <em>Equilibrium</em>

The equilibrium constant Kc is the multiplication of the products' concentrations (elevated by their coefficients) divided by the multiplication of the reactants' concentrations (elevated by their coefficients):

Kc = \frac{[H2]*[I2]}{[HI]^2}

Kc = \frac{0.177M*0.177M}{(0.646M)^2}

Kc = \frac{0.03133M^2}{0.41732M^2}

Kc = 0.075

A sample of hydrated magnesium sulfate (MgSO4)
yaroslaw [1]

Answer:

MgSO4.7H2O

Explanation:

Let the formula for the hydrated magnesium sulphate be MgSO4.xH2O

Mass of the hydrated salt (MgSO4.xH2O) = 12.845g

Mass of anhydrous salt (MgSO4) = 6.273g

Mass of water molecule(xH2O) = Mass of the hydrated salt — Mass of anhydrous salt = 12.845 — 6.273 = 6.572g

Now,we can obtain the number of mole of water molecule present in the hydrated salt as follows:

Molar Mass of hydrated salt (MgSO4.xH2O) = 24 + 32 + (16x4) + x(2 + 16) = 24 + 32 + 64 + x(18) = 120 + 18x

Mass of xH2O/ Molar Mass of MgSO4.xH2O = Mass of water / mass of hydrated salt

18x/120 + 18x = 6.572/12.845

Cross multiply to express in linear form

18x x 12.845 = 6.572(120 + 18x)

231.21x = 788.64 + 118.296x

Collect like terms

231.21x — 118.296x = 788.64

112.914x = 788.64

Divide both side by 112.914

x = 788.64 /112.914

x = 7

Therefore the formula for the hydrated salt (MgSO4.xH2O) is MgSO4.7H2O

A typical aspirin tablet contains 5.00 grains of pure aspirin analgesic compound. The rest of the tablet is
Pavel [41]

Answer:

Tablets=193

Explanation:

Hello,

In this case, given that a typical aspirin tablet contains 5.00 grains of pure aspirin, the first step here is to compute the mass of those grans per tablet given that 1.00 g = 15.4 grains:

m=5.00grains*\frac{1.00g}{15.4grains}=0.325g

In such a way, the number of aspirin tablets are computed considering the total mass of aspirin and the mass per tablet:

Tablets=\frac{62.7g}{0.325g}\\ \\Tablets=193

Best regards.

A mixture of 10 cm3 of methane and 10 cm3 of ethane was sparked with an excess of oxygen. After cooling to room temperature, thr
Tpy6a [65]
In the combustion process using excess oxygen, each mole of methane results to 1 mole of co2 while ethane produces 2 moles of Co2. Under same conditions, these can be translated to volume. Hence the total volume absorbed is 10 cm3 + 20 cm3 = 30 cm3.

A student calculates the volume of a graduated cylinder to be 43.26 ml. The actual volume is 42.32 ml. What is the percent error
Tpy6a [65]

Answer:

2.2%

Explanation:

Percentage error,

You apply the formula,

[(Estimated value - Actual value)/Actual value] × 100%

; [(43.26 - 42.32)/42.32] × 100

; (0.94/42.32) × 100

; 0.022 × 100

Percent error = 2.2%
