When 10.0 grams of sulfur reacts with fluorine gas at a pressure of 2.69 atmosphere in a 5.00 L container at 0.00 degrees Celsiu

s, sulfur tetrafluoride is produced. If 25.0g of SF4 were actually produced what is the percent yield

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%

If the two atoms participating in a bond have an electron negativity difference of 1.9 , what type of of bond would they be part
brilliants [131]

Answer:

Polar covalent bond.

Explanation:

When the bond is formed between the atoms by sharing the electrons the bond thus have covalent character.   The atom with larger electronegativity attract the electron pair more towards it self and becomes partial negative while the other atom becomes partial positive.  When the electronegativity difference is less than 0.4 the bond is non polar covalent.

When bonded atoms have greater electronegativity difference i.e 2 or greater than two the bond is ionic because electron is transfer from low electronegative atom to highest electronegative atom.

For example:

In water the electronegativity of oxygen is 3.44 and hydrogen is 2.2. That's why electron pair attracted more towards oxygen, thus oxygen becomes partial negative and hydrogen becomes partial positive.

In case of H₂, Cl₂, Br₂ the bond has very high covalent character because of zero electronegativity difference.

1Which is a dopant for a p-type semiconductor?
aalyn [17]

For a p type of semiconductor we need a dopant which is from 13th group in periodic table

Al , B, Ga, In Tl

So the correct element will be In : Indium

The other elements belongs to 15th group and hence will give n type semiconductor

What causes a spring to bounce up when it is pushed down and then released?
nalin [4]

(a) Pushing the spring down gives it stored mechanical energy that turns into motion

Explanation:

Pushing on the spring causes the mechanical energy, of pushing on the spring, to be stored in the spring through potential elastic energy. Due to the elasticity of the spring, when the spring is released and resumes its initial shape the stored energy is released and can be used to do work such as motion.
