Answer:

74.1%

Explanation:

Based on the reaction:

S₈ + 16F₂ → 8SF₄

<em>1 mole of sulfur reacts with 16 moles of F₂ to produce 8 moles of SF₄</em>

<em />

To solve this question we must find the moles of each reactant in order to find the moles of SF₄. Thus, we can find the theoretical mass produced. Percent yield is:

Percent yield = Actual yield (25.0g) / Theoretical yield * 100

<em>Moles S₈: 256.52g/mol</em>

10.0g * (1mol / 256.52g) = 0.0390 moles

<em>Moles F₂:</em>

<em>PV = nRT</em>

PV/RT = n

<em>Where P is pressure in atm, V is volume in liters, R is gas constant and T is absolute temperature (0°C = 273.15K)</em>

2.69atm*5.00L / 0.082atmL/molK*273.15K = n

0.600 moles = n

For a complete reaction of 0.600 moles F₂ are required:

0.600mol F₂ * (1mol S₈ / 8 mol F₂) = 0.075 moles S₈

As there are just 0.0390 moles, S₈ is limiting reactant.

The theoretical moles and mass of SF₄ -Molar mass: 108.07g/mol- is:

0.0390 moles S₈ * (8mol SF₄ / 1mol S₈) = 0.312 moles SF₄ * (108.07g) =

33.7g

Percent yield = 25.0g / 33.7g * 100

= 74.1%

What is the purpose of the uninoculated control tubes used in the oxidation fermentation test?
Black_prince [1.1K]
The purpose of the uninoculated control tubes used in this test is that two uninoculated control tubes are needed to show the results of the medium in both aerobic and anaerobic environments. It is used to show it is sterile and also as a color comparison, used also to show that the medium remains green under both conditions.
