The precise shape of a molecule is usually very important to its function in the living cell. Molecular shape is crucial in biology because it determines how biological molecules recognize and respond to one another with specificity. ... Protein function is directly related to the structure of that protein.

Consider the reaction 2CO * O2 —> 2 CO2 what is the percent yield of carbon dioxide (MW= 44g/mol) of the reaction of 10g of c

Arturiano [62]

Answer:

Y = 62.5%

Explanation:

Hello there!

In this case, for the given chemical reaction whereby carbon dioxide is produced in excess oxygen, it is firstly necessary to calculate the theoretical yield of the former throughout the reacted 10 grams of carbon monoxide:

$m_{CO_2}^{theoretical}=10gCO*\frac{1molCO}{28gCO}*\frac{2molCO_2}{2molCO} *\frac{44gCO_2}{1molCO_2}\\\\ m_{CO_2}^{theoretical}=16gCO_2$

Finally, given the actual yield of the CO2-product, we can calculate the percent yield as shown below:

$Y=\frac{10g}{16g} *100\%\\\\Y=62.5\%$

Best regards!
