Answer:
C
Explanation:
The detailed solution is found in the image attached. It is necessary to note that the oxidation half equation is multiplied by three to balance electron gain and loss. This is adequately shown in the image below. Inferences are only drawn from balanced redox reaction equation hence the first step is to balance the redox reaction equation.
Because if you change the subscripts you are changing the chemical compounds of that element. Therefore the element would change.
Answer:
a) 64.27%
b) 58%
c) ethanol is the limiting reactant
d) ethanol is the limiting reactant
Explanation:
We have to note that the expected yield is the theoretical yield while the actual mass or amount of product formed is the actual yield.
a) theoretical yield=68.3g
Actual yield= 43.9 g
Percentage yield= 43.9/68.3 ×100
Percentage yield= 64.27%
b) theoretical yield= 0.0722 moles
Actual yield = 0.0419
Percentage yield= 0.0419/0.0722 × 100
Percentage yield= 58%
c) note that the limiting reactant yields the least number of moles of product
Ethanol will be the limiting reactant since it is not present in excess.
d) from the reaction equation;
1 mole of acetic acid produces 1 mole of ethyl acetate
0.58 moles of ethanol produces 0.58 moles of ethyl acetate
1 mole of acetic acid yields 1 mole of ethyl acetate
Hence 0.82 moles of acetic acid yields 0.82 moles of ethyl acetate
Hence ethanol is the limiting reactant.
