Answer:

$Y_A=92.1\%\\\\Y_B=89.6\%$

Explanation:

Hello there!

In this case, according to the given chemical equation for the reaction for the production of potassium permanganate, we can see a 2:2 mole ratio of this product to the starting manganese (II) oxide, which means, we can calculate the theoretical yield of the former via stoichiometry:

$m_{KMnO_4}=50.0gMnO_2*\frac{1molMnO_2}{86.94gMnO_2}*\frac{2molKMnO_4}{2molMnO_2} *\frac{158.034gKMnO_4}{1molKMnO_4} \\\\m_{KMnO_4}=90.9gKMnO_4$

Now, we are able to compute the percent yields, by using the actual yield each scientist got:

$Y_A=\frac{83.67g}{90.9g} *100\%=92.1\%\\\\Y_B=\frac{81.35g}{90.9g} *100\%=89.6\%$

Regards!

Why aren't hydrogen fuel cells currently available to the public

Romashka-Z-Leto [24]

Answer:

they require more testing in real-word conditions

Explanation:

One of the biggest reasons for this very slow uptake of hydrogen vehicles is the existing infrastructure. ... The sceptics' first argument against hydrogen vehicles is that they're less efficient than EVs are. Because hydrogen doesn't occur naturally, it has to be extracted, then compressed in fuel tanks.

Westkost [7]

Answer:

mNaNO3 =765g

Explanation:

First, we write the balanced chemical equation representing the chemical reaction that happened between aluminum nitrate and sodium chloride.

Balanced chemical equation:

AL(NO3)3+3NaCl ⟶ 3 NaNO3+AlCl3

According to the equation, each mole of aluminum nitrate requires three moles of sodium chloride. Thus, the required number of moles of sodium chloride is

4 Mol ⋅ 3 = 12mol

Based on the data provided in the table, there were 9 moles of sodium chloride used in the reaction, which was not enough for the entirety of aluminum nitrate to react. So, sodium chloride must have been the limiting reactant.

Therefore, we use the number of moles (n) of sodium chloride to calculate the number of moles of sodium nitrate, which has a 1:1 ratio with sodium chloride.

Number of moles sodium nitrate:

nNaNO3=nNaCl

nNaNO3 = 9 mol

We can also calculate the mass (m) of sodium nitrate that was produced by multiplying its number of moles by its molar mass (MM), 85.00g/mol.

Mass of sodium nitrate produced:

mNaNO3 = nNaNO3 ⋅ MMNaNO3

mNaNO3 = 9 mol ⋅ 85.00 g/mol

mNaNO3 =765g

Your lab partner named this compound 3-methyl-4-n-propylhexane, but that is not correct.

loris [4]

Answer: The correct IUPAC name of the alkane is 4-ethyl-3-methylheptane

Explanation:

The IUPAC nomenclature of alkanes are given as follows:

Select the longest possible carbon chain.
For the number of carbon atom, we add prefix as 'meth' for 1, 'eth' for 2, 'prop' for 3, 'but' for 4, 'pent' for 5, 'hex' for 6, 'sept' for 7, 'oct' for 8, 'nona' for 9 and 'deca' for 10.
A suffix '-ane' is added at the end of the name.
If two of more similar alkyl groups are present, then the words 'di', 'tri' 'tetra' and so on are used to specify the number of times these alkyl groups appear in the chain.

We are given:

An alkane having chemical name as 3-methyl-4-n-propylhexane. This will not be the correct name of the alkane because the longest possible carbon chain has 7 Carbon atoms, not 6 carbon atoms

The image of the given alkane is shown in the image below.

Hence, the correct IUPAC name of the alkane is 4-ethyl-3-methylheptane
