Answer:

Theoretical yield: 13.9 g

Percent yield: 94 %

Explanation:

The reaction is:

CaCO₃ → CaO + CO₂

We see that the reaction is correctly balanced.

1 mol of calcium carbonate can decompose to 1 mol of calcium oxide and 1 mol of carbon dioxide.

We convert the mass to moles: 24.8 g . 1mol / 100.08g = 0.248 moles

As ratio is 1:1, 0.248 moles of salt can decompose to 1 mol of oxide.

We convert the moles to mass: 0.248 mol . 56.08g /1mol = 13.9 g

That's the theoretical yield.

To determine the percent yield we think:

(Determined yield / Theoretical yield) . 100 → (13.1 / 13.9) . 100 = 94 %

a block of iron has the dimensions of 3.00 cm x 3.00 cm x 3.00 cm. it has a mass of 213 g. when placed in water, the block sinks
Art [367]

 When the block  of iron is  placed  in water  the volume of water that   is  displaced is  27.0  cm³


  <u><em> calculation</em></u>

The  volume water that is displaced is equal to volume of block  of the iron


volume of block of iron = length x width x height

   length= 3 cm

   width = 3  cm

 height = 3 cm

volume  is therefore = 3 cm  x  3 cm x  3  cm = 27  cm³   therefore the volume displaced  = 27 cm³  since the volume of water displaced  is equal to  volume of block.

Why bromine is a ring deactivator as it is ortho-Para directing group??
Anettt [7]

Answer:

here you go

Explanation:

Halogens are very electronegative. This means that inductively they are electron withdrawing. However, because of their ability to donate a lone pair of electrons in resonance forms, they are activators and ortho/para directing. Electron withdrawing groups are meta directors and they are deactivators.
