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.

Does the amount of methanol increase, decrease, or remain the same when an equilibrium mixture of reactants and products is subj
denis23 [38]

Answer:

a. Methanol remains the same

b. Methanol decreases

c. Methanol increases

d. Methanol remains the same

e. Methanol increases

Explanation:

Methanol is produced by the reaction of carbon monoxide and hydrogen in the presence of a catalyst as follows; 2H2+CO→CH3OH.

a) The presence or absence of a catalyst makes no difference on the equilibrium position of the system hence the methanol remains constant.

b) The amount of methanol decreases because the equilibrium position shifts towards the left and more reactants are formed since the reaction is exothermic.

c) If the volume is decreased, there will be more methanol in the system because the equilibrium position will shift towards the right hand side.

d) Addition of helium gas has no effect on the equilibrium position since it does not participate in the reaction system.

e) if more CO is added the amount of methanol increases since the equilibrium position will shift towards the right hand side.

9. Which series shows levels of organization in order from the smallest to the largest
erastova [34]

Answer:

B. Atom, molecule, cell, organism

Explanation:

Atoms make up molecules. Molecules make up cells. Cells make up tissue. A number of tissues working together creates an organ. Multiple organs working together creates an organ system. Organ systems working together creates one happy, functioning organism. :)
