Answer:
% yield = 82.5%
Explanation:
HgO + 2Cl₂ → HgCl₂ + Cl₂O
Our reactants are:
Our products are:
We do not have information about moles of reactants, but we do know the theoretical yield and the grams of product, in this case Cl₂O, we have produced.
Percent yield = (Yield produced / Theoretical yield) . 100
Theoretical yield is the mass of product which is produced by sufficent reactant. We replace data:
% yield = (0.71 g/0.86g) . 100 = 82.5%
Answer:
1) It is the number of particles in one mole of substance. It is an arbitrary definition to denote an amount of substance, not by its weight but by its number of molecules. Why? because that is convenient when doing certain calculations involving molecule formulas.
2) 1 mole of substance contains exactly as many particles as there are atoms in 12 grams of carbon-12.
3) The unified atomic mass unit is 1/12 of the mass of 1 carbon-12 atom.
So you see all three concepts are linked together.
Nucleic acids typically contain phosphorous as well as nitrogen. The proteins, being made up a diverse set of amino acids, have, in addition to carbon, hydrogen, oxygen, and nitrogen, the elements sulfur and selenium.
Answer:
C. Lose three electrons to have a full outer shell
Explanation:
Al is in Group 13 of the Periodic Table, so it has three valence electrons.
It must either lose three electrons or gain five to achieve a stable octet.
It is easier to lose three electrons than it is to gain five, so Al loses three electrons.
D. is wrong, for the same reason.
A. is wrong. If Al lost three electrons, it would be breaking into a stable inner shell.
C. is wrong. Al is a metal, so it will lose electrons in a reaction.
Because only those with logic (problem solving capabilities) go to chemistry.
