Why would a percent yield be less than 100%? give a reason

Chemistry
1 answer:
alexdok [17]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

Usually, percent yield is lower than 100% because the actual yield is often less than the theoretical value. Reasons for this can include incomplete or competing reactions and loss of sample during recovery. ... This can happen when other reactions were occurring that also formed the product.

How many moles of HCl are needed to completely react with 50.0 mL of 0.250 M NaOH solution? Group of answer choices 1.25 × 10-2
Hitman42 [59]

Answer:

n_{HCl|=1.25\times 10^{-2}\ moles

Explanation:

We know that , the reaction between NaOH and HCl is given as

HCL+NaOH\rightarrow NaCl+H_2O

Form the above reaction we can say that

Number of moles of HCl =Number of moles of NaOH

n_{HCl} =n_{NaOH}

Therefore

n_{HCl}=\frac{0.25\times 50}{1000}\ moles

n_{HCl|=12.5\times 10^{-3}\ moles

n_{HCl|=1.25\times 10^{-2}\ moles

Therefore the numbers of moles needed of HCl wil be 1.25\times 10^{-2}\ moles

A chemical reaction between iron atoms and oxygen molecules can only occur if
salantis [7]
The answer is D) There are effective collisions between the particle[s]. Collisions between particles is what happens during a chemical reaction (in this case, the oxygen and iron particles collide).

Choice A (the particles are heated) is incorrect because heating particles will make the reaction faster. However, there must be a reaction there in the first place.

Choice B (the atmospheric pressure decreases) is incorrect because decreasing pressure will increase volume, which does not have anything to do with the speed of the reaction. Assuming you have learned about equilibrium in a chemical system/equation, you will know that changing the pressure will make the equation shift to the side with less moles of elements. However, the number of moles is not specified.

Choice C (there is a catalyst present) is incorrect because a catalyst is something that speeds up a reaction. Similarly to choice A, there is no reaction to begin with.

Hope this helps. :)

Why did Niels Bohr and Democritus both have such a difficult time gaining
dolphi86 [110]

Answer:

Explanation:The main problem with Bohr's model is that it works very well for atoms with only one electron, like H or He+, but not at all for multi-electron atoms.

2,500 years ago, Democritus suggested that all matter in the universe was made up of tiny, indivisible, solid objects he called "atomos." However, other Greek philosophers disliked Democritus' "atomos" theory because they felt it was illogical.
