An excess of sodium carbonate, Na, CO3, in solution is added to a solution containing 17.87 g CaCl2. After performing the

Brrunno [24]

Answer:

Approximately $81.84\%$ .

Explanation:

Balanced equation for this reaction:

${\rm Na_{2}CO_{3}}\, (aq) + {\rm CaCl_{2}} \, (aq) \to 2\; {\rm NaCl}\, (aq) + {\rm CaCO_{3}}\, (s)$ .

Look up the relative atomic mass of elements in the limiting reactant, $\rm CaCl_{2}$ , as well as those in the product of interest, $\rm CaCO_{3}$ :

$\rm Ca$ : $40.078$ .
$\rm Cl$ : $35.45$ .
$\rm C$ : $12.011$ .
$\rm O$ : $15.999$ .

Calculate the formula mass for both the limiting reactant and the product of interest:

$\begin{aligned}& M({\rm CaCl_{2}}) \\ &= (40.078 + 2 \times 35.45)\; {\rm g \cdot mol^{-1}} \\ &= 110.978\; \rm g \cdot mol^{-1}\end{aligned}$ .

$\begin{aligned}& M({\rm CaCO_{3}}) \\ &= (40.078 + 12.011 + 3 \times 15.999)\; {\rm g \cdot mol^{-1}} \\ &= 100.086\; \rm g \cdot mol^{-1}\end{aligned}$ .

Calculate the quantity of the limiting reactant ( $\rm CaCl_{2}$ ) available to this reaction:

$\begin{aligned}n({\rm CaCl_{2}) &= \frac{m({\rm {CaCl_{2}})}}{M({\rm CaCl_{2}})} \\ &= \frac{17.87\; \rm g}{110.978\; \rm g \cdot mol^{-1}} \\ &\approx 0.161023\; \rm mol \end{aligned}$ .

Refer to the balanced equation for this reaction. The coefficients of the limiting reactant ( $\rm CaCl_{2}$ ) and the product ( ${\rm CaCO_{3}}$ ) are both $1$ . Thus:

$\displaystyle \frac{n({\rm CaCO_{3}})}{n({\rm CaCl_{2}})} = 1$ .

In other words, for every $1\; \rm mol$ of $\rm CaCl_{2}$ formula units that are consumed, $1\; \rm mol\!$ of $\rm CaCO_{3}$ formula units would (in theory) be produced. Thus, calculate the theoretical yield of $\rm CaCO_{3}\!$ in this experiment:

$\begin{aligned} & n(\text{${\rm CaCO_{3}}$, theoretical}) \\ =\; & n({\rm CaCl_{2}}) \cdot \frac{n({\rm CaCO_{3}})}{n({\rm CaCl_{2}})} \\ \approx \; & 0.161023\; {\rm mol} \times 1 \\ =\; & 0.161023\; \rm mol\end{aligned}$ .

Calculate the theoretical yield of this experiment in terms of the mass of $\rm CaCO_{3}$ expected to be produced:

$\begin{aligned} & m(\text{${\rm CaCO_{3}}$, theoretical}) \\ = \; & n(\text{${\rm CaCO_{3}}$, theoretical}) \cdot M(({\rm CaCO_{3}}) \\ \approx \; & 0.161023\; {\rm mol} \times 100.086\; {\rm g \cdot mol^{-1}} \\ \approx \; & 16.1161\; \rm g \end{aligned}$ .

Given that the actual yield in this question (in terms of the mass of $\rm CaCO_{3}$ ) is $13.19\; \rm g$ , calculate the percentage yield of this experiment:

$\begin{aligned} & \text{percentage yield} \\ =\; & \frac{\text{actual yield}}{\text{theoretical yield}} \times 100\% \\ \approx \; & \frac{13.19\; {\rm g}}{16.1161\; {\rm g}} \times 100\% \\ \approx \; & 81.84\%\end{aligned}$ .

Setler79 [48]

Hey there Abigaildonaimor,

A cyclist rode at an average speed of 10mph for 15 miles. How long was the ride?

Answer:

Time = Distance / Rate
= 15 miles / 10mph
= 1.5 hours

Hope this helps :D

A cation is a metallic ion derived from base.Why is it derived from base?Can you derive it from an acid?

Scorpion4ik [409]

Answer:the cation can't be drived from an acid

Explanation:

Example

HCL+MgOH2=MgCl2+H2O

The cation in the salt magnesium chloride is magnesium which is derived from the base and the anion chlorine from the acid hydrochloric acid. The same is true in water.

Please can you add as brainleist please!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
