William measures a test tube and finds that the mass of the test tube is 5g. He places the lone reactant in the test tube and fi

nds the mass to be 12.5g. He carries out a reaction by heating the test tube. At the end of the reaction, he measures the mass of the test tube containing the lone product and finds it to have a mass of 9.3g. What is the percent yield for this experiment if he expected to produce 5g of product?

86 percent is the percent yield for this experiment if he expected to produce 5g of product.

Explanation:

Given that:

mass of test tube = 5 grams

mass of test tube + reactant is 12.5 grams

mass of reactant = ( mass of test tube + reactant ) - (mass of test tube)

mass of reactant = 12.5 -5

                             = 7.5 grams

when 7.5 grams of reactant is heated mass of test tube was found to be 9.3 grams.

so mass of product formed = 9.3 - 5

                                             = 4. 3 grams of product is formed (actual yield)

However, he expected the product to be 5 grams (theoretical yield)

Percent yield = \frac{actual yield}{theoretical yield} x 100

          putting the values in the formula:

percent yield = \frac{4.3}{5} x 100

                     = 86 %

86 percent is the percent yield.

Four gases were combined in a gas cylinder with these partial pressures: 3.5 atm N2, 2.8 atm O2, 0.25 atm Ar, and 0.15 atm He.
Goryan [66]

Answer:

This can be solved using Dalton's Law of Partial pressures. This law states that the total pressure exerted by a gas mixture is equal to the sum of the partial pressure of each gas in the mixture as if it exist alone in a container. In order to solve, we need the partial pressures of the gases given. Calculations are as follows:

Explanation:

P = 3.00 atm + 2.80 atm + 0.25 atm + 0.15 atm

P = 6.8 atm

3.5 atm = x (6.8 atm)

x = 0.51

In the laboratory you dissolve 13.9 g of potassium phosphatein a volumetric flask and add water to a total volume of 250mL.
tensa zangetsu [6.8K]

Answer:

Molarity of the solution? 0,262 M.

Concentration of the potassium cation? 0,786 M.

Concentration of the phosphate anion? 0,262 M.

Explanation:

Potassium phosphate (K₃PO₄; 212,27 g/mol) dissolves in water thus:

K₃PO₄ → 3 K⁺ + PO₄³⁻ <em>(1)</em>

Molarity is an unit of chemical concentration given in moles of solute (K₃PO₄) per liters of solution.

There are 250 mL of solution≡0,25 L

The moles of K₃PO₄ are:

13,9 g of K₃PO₄ ×\frac{1mol}{212,27 g} = 0,0655 moles of K₃PO₄

The molarity of the solution is:

\frac{0,0655 moles}{0,25L} = 0,262 M

In (1) you can see that 1 mole of K₃PO₄ produces 3 moles of potassium cation. The moles of potassium cation are:

0,0655 moles×3 = 0,1965 moles

The concentration is:

\frac{0,1965 moles}{0,25L} = 0,786 M

The moles of K₃PO₄ are the same than moles of PO₄³⁻, thus, concentration of phosphate anion is the same than concentration of K₃PO₄. 0,262 M

I hope it helps!

<span>Answer: option D) Conditions over the oceans change slowly because water takes more time than land to gain or lose heat.

This is because water has a high heat capacity meaning that, with the same amount of heat, it will change its temperature less than what substances with lower heat capacities do.
