Number of moles in the K2SO4 sample
= (16/1000)*1.04= 0.01664 mol
Number of moles in the Ba(NO3)2 sample
= (14.3/1000*0.880)= 0.01258 mol
Since the reaction is a 1:1 ratio between the two reactants, the limiting reagent is the one containing a smaller number of moles, namely Ba(NO3)2.
The molecular mass of BaSO4 is 137.3+(32.06+4*16.00)=233.4
Therefore the theoretical yield of Barium Sulphate is
233.4*0.01258=2.937 g
Actual yield = 2.60 g (given)
Therefore the percentage yield = 2.60/2.937=88.54%
Answer:
1. the limiting reagent is Barium Nitrate (Ba(NO3)2)
2. the theoretical yield is 2.94 g
3. the percentage yield is 88.5%
I apologize for the mistake previous to this update.
state what the lab is about, that is, what scientific concept (theory, principle, procedure, etc.) you are supposed to be learning about by doing the lab. You should do this briefly, in a sentence or two. If you are having trouble writing the opening sentence of the report, you can try something like: "This laboratory experiment focuses on X…"; "This lab is designed to help students learn about, observe, or investigate, X…." Or begin with a definition of the scientific concept: "X is a theory that…."
2. give the necessary background for the scientific concept by telling what you know about it (the main references you can use are the lab manual, the textbook, lecture notes, and other sources recommended by the lab manual or lab instructor; in more advanced labs you may also be expected to cite the findings of previous scientific studies related to the lab). In relatively simple labs you can do this in a paragraph following the initial statement of the scientific concept of the lab. But in more complex labs, the background may require more paragraphs.
Assume 1 tsp is approximately can hold 5 mL liquid.
Given the dose of medicine = 1.5 tsp
Converting 1.5 tsp to mL:
= 7.5 mL
Given the specific gravity of the medicine = 1.23
That means density of the medicine with respect to water will be 1.23
As the density of water is 1 g/mL
We can take density of the medicine to be 1.23 g/mL
Calculating the mass of medicine in grams:
9.225 g medicine is present in one dose.
The answer is caso4 and ca(C2H3O2)2
