Answer:

Difference in the potential energy of the reactants and products

Explanation:

The products have a lower potential energy than the reactants, and the sign of ΔH is negative. In an endothermic reaction, energy is absorbed. The products have a higher potential energy than the reactants, and the sign of ΔH is positive.

What is the theoretical yield of Calcium if we begin with 12.6 grams of Aluminium?

AlladinOne [14]

The question is incomplete, here is the complete question:

The given chemical reaction is:

$2Al+3Cu(NO_3)_2\rightarrow 3Cu+2Al(NO_3)_3$

What is the theoretical yield of Calcium if we begin with 12.6 grams of Aluminium?

Answer: The theoretical yield of copper is 44.48 grams

Explanation:

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

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

Given mass of aluminium = 12.6 g

Molar mass of aluminium = 27 g/mol

Putting values in equation 1, we get:

$\text{Moles of aluminium}=\frac{12.6g}{27g/mol}=0.467mol$

The given chemical equation follows:

$2Al+3Cu(NO_3)_2\rightarrow 3Cu+2Al(NO_3)_3$

By Stoichiometry of the reaction:

2 moles of aluminium produces 3 moles of copper

So, 0.467 moles of aluminium will produce = $\frac{3}{2}\times 0.467=0.7005mol$ of copper

Now, calculating the mass of copper from equation 1, we get:

Molar mass of copper = 63.5 g/mol

Moles of copper = 0.7005 moles

Putting values in equation 1, we get:

$0.7005mol=\frac{\text{Mass of copper}}{63.5g/mol}\\\\\text{Mass of copper}=(0.7005mol\times 63.5g/mol)=44.48g$

Hence, the theoretical yield of copper is 44.48 grams

When heated, lithium reacts with nitrogen to form lithium nitride: 6Li(s) + N2(g) → 2Li3N(s) What is the theoretical yield of Li

anyanavicka [17]

Answer:

The % yield of the reaction = 27.5 %

Explanation:

Step 1: Data given

Mass of Li = 12.7 grams

Mass of N2 = 34.7 grams

Actual yield of Li3N = 5.85 grams

Molar mass of Lithium = 6.94 g/mol

Molar mass of N2 = 28 g/mol

Molar mass of LI3N = 34.83 g/mol

Step 2: The balanced equation:

6Li(s) + N2(g) → 2Li3N(s)

Step 3: Calculate moles of Lithium

Moles Li = mass Li / Molar mass Li

Moles Li = 12.7 grams / 6.94 g/mol

Moles Li = 1.83 moles

Step 4: Calculate moles of N2

Moles N2 = 34.7 g/ 28 g/mol

Moles N2 = 1.24 moles

Step 5: Limiting reactant

For 6 moles Li consumed, we need 1 mole of N2 to produce 2 moles of Li3N

Lithium is the limiting reactant. It will completely be consumed (1.83 moles).

N2 is in excess. There will be consumed 1.83 / 6 = 0.305 moles

There will remain 1.24 - 0.305 = 0.935 moles

Step 6: Calculate moles of Li3N

For 6 moles Li consumed, we need 1 mole of N2 to produce 2 moles of Li3N

For 1.83 moles Li, we'll have 1.83/3 = 0.61 moles of Li3N

Step 7: Calculate mass of Li3N

Mass Li3N =moles LI3N * Molar Mass LI3N

Mass Li3N = 0.610 moles * 34.83 g/mol

Mass Li3N = 21.2463 grams = Theoretical yield

Step 8: Calculate % yield

% yield = actual yield / theoretical yield

% yield = (5.85 / 21.2463)*100% = 27.5%

The % yield of the reaction = 27.5 %
