I think it's D, because theoretical yield is like, the yield you'd get if 100% of the reactants formed to make product. Well that's how I think of it, but it has something to do with limiting reagents and stuff. Sorry this isn't a really detailed explanation.

<span>4FeS2 + 11O2 = 2Fe2O3 + 8SO2</span>

Percent yield is calculated as the actual yield divided by the theoretical yield multiplied by 100.

Actual yield = 55 g ( 1 mol / 159.69 g ) = 0.34 mol Fe2O3

To find for the theoretical yield, we first determine the limiting reactant.

100 g O2 ( 1 mol / 32 g) = 3.13 mol O2
200 g FeS2 (1 mol / 119.98g) = 1.67 mol FeS2

Therefore, the limiting reactant is O2.

Theoretical yield = 3.13 mol O2 ( 2 mol Fe2O3 / 11 mol O2 ) = 0.57 mol Fe2O3

Percent yield = (0.34 mol / 0.57 mol) x 100 = 59.74%

Use calc to determine whether it is possible to remove 99.99% Cu2 by converting it to Cu(s) in a solution mixture containing 0.1
inessss [21]

Answer:

it is possible to remove 99.99% Cu2 by converting it to Cu(s)

Explanation:

So, from the question/problem above we are given the following ionic or REDOX equations of reactions;

Cu2+ + 2e- <--------------------------------------------------------------> Cu (s) Eo= 0.339 V

Sn2+ + 2e- <---------------------------------------------------------------> Sn (s) Eo= -0.141 V

In order to convert 99.99% Cu2 into Cu(s), the equation of reaction given below is needed:

Cu²⁺ + Sn ----------------------------------------------------------------------------> Cu + Sn²⁺.

Therefore, E°[overall] = 0.339 - [-0.141] = 0.48 V.

Therefore, the change in Gibbs' free energy, ΔG° = - nFE°. Where E° = O.48V, n= 2 and F = 96500 C.

Thus, ΔG° = - 92640.

This is less than zero[0]. Therefore,  it is possible to remove 99.99% Cu2 by converting it to Cu(s) because the reaction is a spontaneous reaction.
