Answer:

FeCl3 is the limiting reactant

O2 is in excess

Theoretical yield Cl2 = 9.84 grams

The % yield is 96.5 %

Explanation:

Step 1: Data given

Mass of FeCl3 = 15.0 grams

Moles O2 = 4.0 moles

Mass of Cl2 produced = 9.5 grams

Step 2: The balanced equation

4FeCl3 + 3O2 → 2Fe2O3 + 6Cl2

Step 3: Calculate moles FeCl3

Moles FeCl3 = mass FeCl3 / molar mass FeCl3

Moles FeCl3 = 15.0 grams / 162.2 g/mol

Moles FeCl3 = 0.0925 moles

Step 4: Calculate limiting reactant

FeCl3 is the limiting reactant. Because we have way more (more than ratio 3:4) moles O2 than FeCl3. It will completely be consumed (0.0925 moles). O2 is in excess. There will react = 0.069375 moles O2

There will remain 4.0 - 0.069375 = 3.930625 moles

Step 5: Calculate moles Cl2

For 4 moles FeCl3 we need 3 moles O2 to produce 2 moles Fe2O3 and 6 moles Cl2

For 0.0925 moles FeCl3 moles we'll have 6/4 * 0.0925 = 0.13875 moles Cl2.

Step 6: Calculate mass Cl2

Mass Cl2 = moles * molar mass

Mass Cl2 = 0.13875 moles * 70.9 g/mol

Mass Cl2 = 9.84 grams

Step 7: Calculate % yield

% yield = (actual yield / theoretical yield) * 100%

% yield = (9.5 grams / 9.84 grams ) * 100%

% yield = 96.5 %

The % yield is 96.5 %

1) When 2.38g of magnesium is added to 25.0cm of 2.27 M hydrochloric acid, hydrogen gas is released.
Andrej [43]

Answer:

a. HCl.

b. 0.057 g.

c. 1.69 g.

d. 77 %.

Explanation:

Hello!

In this case, since the reaction between magnesium and hydrochloric acid is:

Mg+2HCl\rightarrow MgCl_2+H_2

Whereas there is 1:2 mole ratio between them.

a) Here, we can identify the limiting reactant as that yielded the fewest moles of hydrogen gas product via the 1:1 and 2:1 mole ratios:

n_{H_2}^{by\  HCl}=0.025L*2.27\frac{molHCl}{1L}*\frac{1molH_2}{2molHCl}  =0.0284molH_2\\\\n_{H_2}^{by\  Mg}=2.38gMg*\frac{1molMg}{24.3gMg}*\frac{1molH_2}{1molMg}=0.0979molH_2

Thus, since hydrochloric yields fewer moles of hydrogen than magnesium, we realize it is the limiting reactant.

b) Here, we use the molar mass of gaseous hydrogen (2.02 g/mol) to compute the mass:

m_{H_2}=0.0284molH_2*\frac{2.02gH_2}{1molH_2}=0.057gH_2

c) Here, we compute the mass of magnesium associated with the yielded 0.0248 moles of hydrogen:

m_{Mg}^{reacted}=0.0284molH_2*\frac{1molMg}{1molH_2}*\frac{24.3gMg}{1molMg}  =0.690gMg

Thus, the mass of excess magnesium turns out:

m_{Mg}^{excess}=2.38g-0.690g=1.69gMg

d) Finally, we compute the percent yield, considering 0.044 g is the actual yield and 0.057 g the theoretical yield:

Y=\frac{0.044g}{0.057g} *100\%\\\\Y=77\%

What is the density of a 6 g of pure copper with a volume of 12 mL?
Sati [7]

Answer:

The density of copper is 0.5 g/mL

Explanation:

Given data:

Mass of copper = 6 g

Volume of copper = 12 mL

Density of copper = ?

Solution:

Formula:

d = m/v

d = density

m = mass

v = volume

d = 6 g/ 12 mL

d = 0.5 g/mL

Thus, the density of copper is 0.5 g/mL

Consider the following ionization reaction.
77julia77 [94]

Answer:

See explanation

Explanation:

According to Bronsted-Lowry, an acid is a proton donor while a base is a proton acceptor.

Hence, if we consider the reaction above, we will notice that for each base there is a conjugate acid and for each acid there is a conjugate base.

For the acid HNO3, its conjugate base is NO3^- while for the acid H3O^+, its conjugate base is H2O.
