Answer:

42.9%

Explanation:

Step 1: Write the balanced decomposition reaction

PbO₂ ⇒ Pb + O₂

Step 2: Calculate the theoretical yield of O₂ from 5.77 g of PbO₂

According to the balanced equation, the mass ratio of PbO₂ to O₂ is 239.2:32.00.

5.77 g PbO₂ × 32.00 g O₂/239.2 g PbO₂ = 0.772 g O₂

Step 3: Calculate the percent yield of O₂

The real yield of O₂ is 0.331 g. The percent yield of O₂ is:

%yield = real yield / theoretical yield × 100%

%yield = 0.331 g / 0.772 g × 100% = 42.9%

A student preforms a chemical reaction in which 35 grams of hydrogen and 65 grams of oxygen reacted to form water. What is the m
tatuchka [14]

Answer:

Mass of water = 73.08 g

Explanation:

Given data:

Mass of hydrogen = 35 g

Mass of oxygen = 65 g

Mass of water = ?

Solution:

First of all we will write the balanced chemical equation:

2H₂  + O₂   →    2H₂O

Number of moles of hydrogen = mass/ molar mass

Number of moles of hydrogen =  35 g/ 2 g/mol

Number of moles of hydrogen = 17.5 mol

Number of moles of oxygen = 65 g / 32 g/mol

Number of moles of oxygen = 2.03 moles

Now we compare the moles of water with moles hydrogen and oxygen.

                                     H₂               :              H₂O

                                      2                :                2

                                    17.5              :              17.5

                                       O₂             :            H₂O

                                      1                :               2

                                      2.03         :             2× 2.03 =4.06 mol

Number of moles of water produced by oxygen are less so oxygen is limitting reactant.

Mass of water:

           Mass of water = number of moles × molar mass

          Mass of water = 4.06 mol × 18 g/mol

           Mass of water = 73.08 g

What is the percent composition of a copper chloride compound if a 269 g sample contains 127 g of copper and 142 grams of chlori
Tems11 [23]

Answer:

Explanation:

The whole sample is 269

%copper = 127/269 * 100 = 47.2%

%chlorine = 142/269 * 100 = 52.8%

That's all you are asking. Is there more?

The PH solution of NH3 of 0.950molar solution is 11.612. find the Kb​
Vaselesa [24]

Answer:

1.8 x 10⁻⁵

Explanation:

 NH3(aq)  +  H2O(l)  ⇄ NH4⁺(aq)  +   OH⁻(aq)

I  0.95                              0                    0

C -x                                 +x                  +x

E 0.95-x                           x                    x

Kb= [NH₄⁺] [OH⁻] / (  NH₃) = x²/ (0.95-x )

P(OH) = 14-PH = 14-11.612 = 2.388

(OH)⁻¹ = 10⁻²°³⁸⁸ = 4.09 x 10⁻³ = x

Kb = (4.09 x 10⁻³)²/ (0.95-4.09 x 10⁻³)

= 1.8 x 10⁻⁵
