A 16.0 mL sample of a 1.04 M potassium sulfate solution is mixed with 14.3 mL of a 0.880 M barium nitrate solution and this prec

ipitation reaction occurs: K 2 S O 4 (aq)+Ba(N O 3 ) 2 (aq)→BaS O 4 (s)+2KN O 3 (aq) The solid BaS O 4 is collected, dried, and found to have a mass of 2.60 g . Determine the limiting reactant, the theoretical yield, and the percent yield.

Number of moles in the K2SO4 sample
= (16/1000)*1.04= 0.01664 mol

Number of moles in the Ba(NO3)2 sample
= (14.3/1000*0.880)= 0.01258 mol

Since the reaction is a 1:1 ratio between the two reactants, the limiting reagent is the one containing a smaller number of moles, namely Ba(NO3)2.

The molecular mass of BaSO4 is 137.3+(32.06+4*16.00)=233.4
Therefore the theoretical yield of Barium Sulphate is
233.4*0.01258=2.937 g
Actual yield = 2.60 g (given)
Therefore the percentage yield = 2.60/2.937=88.54%

Answer: 
1. the limiting reagent is Barium Nitrate (Ba(NO3)2)
2. the theoretical yield is 2.94 g
3. the percentage yield is 88.5%

I apologize for the mistake previous to this update.

Determine the energy in joules of a photon whose frequency is 3.55 x10^17 hz
zaharov [31]
The equation for energy of a photon is E=hv where v equals frequency and h equals the Planck constant (6.626X10^-34). So since you've been given frequency you can just plug in frequency to find the total energy in joules.

E=(3.55X10^17)(6.626X10^-34)
E=2.35223X10^-16

Not sure how many significant figures you needed. Hope this helped.

Which type of change must occur to form a compound? (1) chemical (3) nuclear(2) physical (4) phase?
Leya [2.2K]
Let's go through each of the answers and think about why they work or don't work. 

Chemical forms compounds. 

Nuclear changes the element completely. We're going to use the sun as an example. The sun is in a state of plasma. It's really hot and has all these particles hitting into each other. The nucleus' of atoms are hitting into each other forming larger elements. It's real crazy. Nuclear is not correct. 

Physical cannot form a compound.
