2Fe(s) +3H2SO4(aq) →Fe2(SO4)3(aq) +3H2(g)When 10.3 g of iron are reacted with 14.8 moles of sulfuric acid, what is the percent y

Answer:

1040%

Explanation:

To solve this question we must convert the mass of Iron to moles in order to find limiting reactant. With limiting reactant we can find the theoretical moles of hydrogen and theoretical mass:

Percent yield = Actual yield (5.40g) / Theoretical yield * 100

<em>Moles Fe -Molar mass: 55.845g/mol-:</em>

10.3g * (1mol / 55.845g) = 0.184 moles of Fe will react.

For a complete reaction of these moles there are necessaries:

0.184 moles Fe* ( 3 mol H2SO4 / 2 mol Fe) = 0.277 moles H2SO4.

As there are 14.8 moles of the acid, <em>Fe is limiting reasctant.</em>

The moles of H2 produced are:

0.184 moles Fe* ( 3 mol H2 / 2 mol Fe) = 0.277 moles H2

The mass is:

0.277 moles H2 * (2.016g/mol) = 0.558g H2

Percent yield is:

5.40g / 0.558g * 100 = 1040%

It is possible the experiment wasn't performed correctly

A cough syrup contains 5.0% ethyl alcohol, c2h5oh, by mass. if the density of the solution is 0.9928 g/ml, determine the molarit
WARRIOR [948]
To answer the question above, let us a basis of the 1000 mL or 1 L. 
                 volume = (0.9928 g/mL)(1000mL) = 992.8 g
Then, determine the mass of the alcohol by multiplying the total mass by the decimal equivalent of 5%. 
               mass of alcohol = 0.05(992.8 g) = 49.64 g
Then, determine the number of moles of ethyl alcohol by dividing the mass of alcohol by the molar mass (46 g/mol). 
                       n = 49.64 g/ (46 g/mol) = 1.08 mol
Then, divide the number of moles by the volume (our basis is 1 L)
                       molarity = 1.08 mol/ 1 L = 1.08 M

Examine the equation.
Alisiya [41]

Explanation:

The reaction expression is given as;

                 2H₂_{g}   +  O₂_{g}   →   2H₂O_{l}

From the balance reaction expression:

 2 mole of hydrogen gas combines with 1 mole of oxygen gas on the reactant side;

This produces 2 mole of water on the product side of the expression.

The product is in liquid form.

 This reaction is a synthesis reaction because a single product is formed from two reactants.

Select all the correct statements, there is more than one.
alexgriva [62]

Answer:

Experiments to determine mechanisms involve looking at indirect evidence to help support or disprove a proposed mechanism.

Most intermediates are not typically isolated to determine reaction mechanisms.

Carbocations are very reactive and are typically not isolated for analysis.

Scientists can prove that a specific mechanism exists.

Evidence of intermediates sometimes can be seen using techniques such as nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy

Explanation:

The study of reaction mechanism and chemical kinetics often form the main thrust of study in organic, inorganic and physical chemistry.

We often want to know the actual processes involved in the conversion of one specie to another. Unfortunately, this information may have to be obtained indirectly by certain chemical reactions or by the use of new instrumental methods such as nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy.

Many organic reactions have carbocation intermediates. These carbocations are relatively short-lived and are transient intermediates which are rarely isolated unless they are isolated in a molecular cage using a macromolecule or in superacids.

By intensive study, scientists can proof or disprove the authenticity of any proposed mechanism.

We must know that a transition state has partial bonds. It is often an extremely short-lived specie which cannot be isolated.
