Remember that:
number of moles = mass/molar mass
First, we get the molar mass of the nitrogen gas molecule:
It is known the the nitrogen gas is composed of two nitrogen atoms, each with molar mass 14 gm (from the periodic table)
Therefore, molar mass of nitrogen gas = 14 x 2 = 28 gm
Second we calculate the mass of the precipitate:
we have number of moles = 0.03 moles (given)
and molar mass = 28 gm (calculated)
Using the equation mentioned before,
mass = number of moles x molar mass = 0.03 x 28 = 0.84 gm
I think one is Hydrochloric acid
Both are mainly composed of droplets of condensed water
Your answer is B, conservation of mass
Recall that percent yield is given by: %Yeild = actual yeild/theoretical yeild x100
During experiments, there are errors made:
• uncertainty in measurements
• losses of reactants and products
• impurity in reactants
• losses during separation (e.g. filtration or purification)
• Some side reactions might also happen.
Among the given options, only conservation of mass does not contribute to a lower actual yield compared to the theoretical yield.
