The question is incomplete, the complete question is;

Assume that your empty crucible weighs 15.98 g, and the crucible plus the sodium bicarbonate sample weighs 18.56 g. After the first heating, your crucible and contents weighs 17.51 g. After the second heating, your crucible and contents weighs 17.50 g.

What is the theoretical yield of sodium carbonate?

What is the experimental yield of sodium carbonate?

What is the percent yield for sodium carbonate?

Which errors could cause your percent yield to be falsely high, or even over 100%?

Answer:

See Explanation

Explanation:

We have to note that water is driven away after the second heating hence we are concerned with the weight of the pure dry product.

Hence;

From the reaction;

2 NaHCO3 → Na2CO3(s) + H2O(l) + CO2(g)

Number of moles of  sodium bicarbonate = 18.56 - 15.98 = 2.58 g/87 g/mol

= 0.0297 moles

2 moles of sodium bicarbonate yields 1 mole of sodium carbonate

0.0297 moles of 0.015 moles  sodium bicarbonate yields 0.0297 * 1/2 = 0.015 moles

Theoretical yield of sodium carbonate = 0.015 moles * 106 g/mol = 1.59 g

Experimental yield of sodium bicarbonate = 17.50 g - 15.98 g = 1.52 g

% yield = experimental yield/Theoretical yield * 100

% yield = 1.52/1.59 * 100

% yield = 96%

The percent yield may exceed 100% if the water and CO2 are not removed from the system by heating the solid product to a constant mass.

Margarita [4]

Answer:

λ = 0.0167 m = 16.7 mm

Explanation:

The wavelength of these radio waves can be found out by using the formula for the speed of radio waves:

v = fλ

where,

v = speed of radio waves = speed of light = 3 x 10⁸ m/s

f = frequency of radio waves = 18 GHz = 18 x 10⁹ Hz

λ = Wavelength = ?

Therefore,

3 x 10⁸ m/s = (18 x 10⁹ Hz)λ

λ = (3 x 10⁸ m/s)/(18 x 10⁹ Hz)

<u>λ = 0.0167 m = 16.7 mm</u>

Need help with this.
Jobisdone [24]

Answer:

18.2 g.

Explanation:

You need to first figure out how many moles of nitrogen gas and hydrogen (gas) you have. To do this, use the molar masses of nitrogen gas and hydrogen (gas) on the periodic table. You get the following:

0.535 g. N2 and 1.984 g. H2

Then find out which reactant is the limiting one. In this case, it's N2. The amount of ammonia, then, that would be produced is 2 times the amount of moles of N2. This gives you 1.07 mol, approximately. Then multiply this by the molar mass of ammonia to find your answer of 18.2 g.

Courtney Drive for 30 minutes at 50 mph and for one hour at 40 mph how far has he traveled all together
den301095 [7]

Answer:

Explanation:40 mph = 64.3738 kph

kph/3.6 = m/s

64.3738/3.6 = 17.8816 m/s

30 mins in seconds = 30 x 60 = 1800 s

1800 s x 17.8816 m/s = 32186.88 m or 32.18688 km or 20 miles

what is the percent by mass of NaHCO3 in a solution containing 20.0 g of NaHCO3 dissolved in 600.0 ml of water
Ne4ueva [31]
%(NaHCO3)= ((mass NaHCO3)/(mass NaHCO3 + mass water))*100%

m=Volume*Density
Density of water =1 g/ml
m(water) = Volume(water)*Density(water) = 600.0 ml * 1g/ml=600g water

%(NaHCO3)= ((20.0 g)/(20.0 g + 600 g))*100%=0.0323*100%=32.3%
