Chemistry
1 answer:
Hunter-Best [27]3 years ago
7 0

Answer:

Electricity is most often generated at a power plant by electromechanical generators, primarily driven by heat engines fueled by combustion or nuclear fission but also by other means such as the kinetic energy of flowing water and wind. Other energy sources include solar photovoltaics and geothermal power.

A student isolated 7.2 g of 1-bromobutane reacting equimolar amounts of 1-butanol (10 ml) and NaBr (11.1 g) in the presence of s
Alla [95]

<u>Answer:</u> The percent yield of the 1-bromobutane is 48.65 %

<u>Explanation:</u>

To calculate the number of moles, we use the equation:

\text{Number of moles}=\frac{\text{Given mass}}{\text{Molar mass}}     .....(1)

  • <u>For NaBr:</u>

Given mass of NaBr = 11.1 g

Molar mass of NaBr = 103 g/mol

Putting values in equation 1, we get:

\text{Moles of NaBr}=\frac{11.1g}{103g/mol}=0.108mol

The chemical equation for the reaction of 1-butanol and NaBr is:

\text{1-butanol + NaBr}\rightarrow \text{1-bromobutane}

By Stoichiometry of the reaction

1 mole of NaBr produces 1 mole of 1-bromobutane

So, 0.108 moles of NaBr will produce = \frac{1}{1}\times 0.108=0.108 moles of 1-bromobutane

  • Now, calculating the mass of 1-bromobutane from equation 1, we get:

Molar mass of 1-bromobutane = 137 g/mol

Moles of 1-bromobutane = 0.108 moles

Putting values in equation 1, we get:

0.108mol=\frac{\text{Mass of 1-bromobutane}}{137g/mol}\\\\\text{Mass of 1-bromobutane}=(0.108mol\times 137g/mol)=14.80g

  • To calculate the percentage yield of 1-bromobutane, we use the equation:

\%\text{ yield}=\frac{\text{Experimental yield}}{\text{Theoretical yield}}\times 100

Experimental yield of 1-bromobutane = 7.2 g

Theoretical yield of 1-bromobutane = 14.80 g

Putting values in above equation, we get:

\%\text{ yield of 1-bromobutane}=\frac{7.2g}{14.80g}\times 100\\\\\% \text{yield of 1-bromobutane}=48.65\%

Hence, the percent yield of the 1-bromobutane is 48.65 %

The mass of a solid substance is 21.112 g. If the volume of the solid substance is 19.5 cm3, calculate the density of the substa
Ostrovityanka [42]

Answer:

ρ = 1.08 g/cm³

Explanation:

Step 1: Given data

Mass of the substance (m): 21.112 g

Volume of the substance (V): 19.5 cm³

Step 2: Calculate the density of the substance

The density (ρ) of a substance is equal to its mass divided by its volume.

ρ = m / V

ρ = 21.112 g / 19.5 cm³

ρ = 1.08 g/cm³

The density of the substance is 1.08 g/cm³.
