1) Chemical equation

2H2O ----> 2H2 + O2

2) theoretical molar ratios:

2 mol H2O : 2 mol H2 : 1 mol O2

3) determine the number of moles in 17.0 g of H2O and 10.2 g of O2

number of moles = mass in grams / molar mass

molar mass of H2O = 18.02 g/mol

molar mass of O2 = 32.00 g/mol

=> number of moles of H2O = 17.0 g / 18.02 g/mol = 0.943 moles

number of moles of O2 = 10.2 g / 32.0 g = 0.319 mol O2

4) theoretical yield

2 mol H2O / 1 mol O2 = 0.943 mol H2O / x =>

x = 0.943 mol H2O * 1 mol O2 / 2 mol H2O = 0.472 mol O2

5) Percent yield

Percent yield = (actual moles / theoretical moles) * 100 = (0.319 / 0.472)*100 = 67.6%

Answer: the fourth option 67.6%

svetoff [14.1K]

The enzymes and their respective substrates are as follows:

  • Protease enzymes such as trypsin and chymotrypsin break down proteins
  • Carbohydrate enzymes such amylase and maltase break down carbohydrates
  • Lipase enzyme breaks down lipids.

In the small intestine, a protease enzyme known as chymotrypsin breaks down protein, pancreatic amylase breaks down carbohydrates, while pancreatic lipase breaks down lipids.

How is enthalpy used to predict whether a reaction is endothermic or exothermic?
Dahasolnce [82]
If the enthalpy change is negative, then the reaction is exothermic because heat energy was lost to the surroundings.

If the enthalpy change was positive, then the reaction was endothermic because heat energy was gained from the surroundings!

Hope this helps!! x

In a common experiment in the general chemistry laboratory, magnesium metal is heated in air to produce MgO. MgO is a white soli
Digiron [165]

Explanation:

When magnesium metal burns is heated i the air it forms magnesium oxide.The balanced chemical reaction is given as:

2Mg+O_2\rightarrow 2MgO

2 moles of magnesium metal when reacts with 1 moles of oxygen it gives 2 moles of magnesium oxide which is white in color.

Some times along with formation of magnesium oxide small amount of magnesium nitride also produced due to which magnesium oxide appears grey in color .The balanced chemical reaction is given as:

3Mg+N_2\rightarrow Mg_3N_2

3 moles of magnesium combines with 1 mol of nitrogen gas to to give 1 mol of magnesium nitride.
