4 0

Answer: 75%

Explanation:

The following information can be gotten from the question:

Waste = 70kg

Theoretical yield = 280kg

Therefore, the actual yield will be the difference between the theoretical yield and the waste which will be:

= 280kg - 70kg = 210kg

The percent yield will now be:

= Actual yield / Theoretical yield × 100

= 210/280 × 100

= 3/4 × 100

= 75%

Daniel [21]

one mole of P weights about 31 grams

in one mole there are 6.022*10^23 atoms

we use the rule of threes

6.022*10^23atoms......weight..........31 grams

3.45*10^23 atoms.........weight...........x grams

x=(3.45*10^23*31)/6.022*10^23

x=106.95/6.022=<u><em>17.76 grams</em></u>
