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.

I believe the correct answer from the choices listed above is option A. Multiplying 42 by 2/3, or 0.667, would be most useful for c<span>alculating the moles of O2 needed to produce 42 moles of CO2. Hope this answers the question.</span>

How do decomposers interact with producers and consumers in an ecosystem
fenix001 [56]
Best Answer: producers use nutrients in the soil > consumers eat the producers, obtaining the energy and nutrients that the plant took > the consumer dies and is decomposed by a decomposer (usually decomposing bacteria), which replaces the nutrients back into the soil > producers use the nutrients in the soil.

now put that into your own words; if you cant, try drawing pictures to help you :) that might help you revise too, but remember to add info underneath, otherwise you might not understand it when you come back to it later
