Answer:

8.36 g

Explanation:

From;

0.693/t1/2 = 2.303/t log (No/N)

t1/2 = half life of potassium-40

t = age of the sample

No= initial amount of the sample

N= amount of the sample at time t

Substituting values;

0.693/1.3 × 10^9 = 2.303/2.6 × 10^9 log (No/2.10)

5.33 × 10^-10 = 8.86 × 10^-10 log (No/2.10)

5.33 × 10^-10/8.86 × 10^-10 = log (No/2.10)

0.6 = log (No/2.10)

Antilog (0.6) = (No/2.10)

No = 2.10 × Antilog (0.6)

No= 8.36 g

During an experiment, 95 grams of calcium carbonate reacted with an excess amount of hydrochloric acid. If the percent yield of

almond37 [142]

Answer:

Actual yield: 86.5 grams.

Explanation:

How many moles of formula units in 95 grams of calcium carbonate $\rm CaCO_3$ ?

Refer to a modern periodic table for relative atomic mass data:

Ca: 40.078;
C: 12.011;
O: 15.999.

Formula mass of $\rm CaCO_3$ :

$M(\mathrm{CaCO_3}) = \underbrace{1\times 40.078}_{\rm Ca} + \underbrace{1\times 12.011}_{\rm C} + \underbrace{3\times 15.999}_{\rm O} = \rm 100.086\;g\cdot mol^{-1}$ .

$\displaystyle n(\mathrm{CaCO_3}) = \frac{m(\mathrm{CaCO_3})}{M(\mathrm{CaCO_3})} = \rm \frac{95\;g}{100.086\;g\cdot mol^{-1}} = 0.949184\;mol$ .

How many moles of $\rm CaCl_2$ will be produced?

The coefficient in front of $\rm CaCO_3$ in the chemical equation is the same as that in front of $\rm CaCl_2$ . That is:

$\displaystyle \frac{n(\rm CaCl_2)}{n(\rm CaCO_3)} = 1$ .

$\displaystyle n(\mathrm{CaCl_2}) = n(\mathrm{CaCO_3})\cdot \frac{n(\rm CaCl_2)}{n(\rm CaCO_3)} = n(\mathrm{CaCO_3}) = \rm 0.949184\;mol$ .

What's the theoretical yield of calcium chloride? In other words, what's the mass of $\rm 0.949184\;mol$ of $\rm CaCl_2$ ?

Again, refer to a periodic table for relative atomic data:

Ca: 40.078;
Cl: 35.45.

$M(\mathrm{CaCl_2}) = \underbrace{1\times 40.078}_{\rm Ca} + \underbrace{2\times 35.45}_{\rm Cl} = \rm 110.978\;g\cdot mol^{-1}$ .

$\begin{aligned}m(\mathrm{CaCl_2}) &= n(\mathrm{CaCl_2})\cdot M(\mathrm{CaCl_2})\\ &= \rm 0.949184\;mol\times 110.978\;g\cdot mol^{-1}\\ &= \rm 105.339\; g\end{aligned}$ .

What's the actual yield of calcium chloride?

$\displaystyle \text{Percentage Yield} = \frac{\text{Actual Yield}}{\text{Theoretical Yield}}\times 100\%$ .

$\displaystyle \begin{aligned}\text{Actual Yield} &= \text{Theoretical Yield}\cdot \frac{\text{Percentage Yield}}{100\%}\\ &=\rm 105.339\; g \times \frac{82.15\%}{100\%}\\&= \rm 86.5\;g \end{aligned}$ .

Vinegar is a solution of acetic acid (the solute) in water (the solvent) with a solution density of 1010 g/L. If vinegar is 0.80

Damm [24]

Answer:

4.8 %

Explanation:

We are asked the concentration in % by mass, given the molarity of the solution and its density.

0.8 molar solution means that we have 0.80 moles of acetic acid in 1 liter of solution. If we convert the moles of acetic acid to grams, and the 1 liter solution to grams, since we are given the density of solution, we will have the values necessary to calculate the % by mass:

MW acetic acid = 60.0 g/mol

mass acetic acid (the solute) = 0.80 mol x 60 g / mol = 48.00 g

mass of solution = 1000 cm³ x 1.010 g/ cm³ (1l= 1000 cm³)

= 1010 g

% (by mass) = 48.00 g/ 1010 g x 100 = 4.8 %
