The question is incomplete, the complete question is;

In this stoichiometry problem, determine the percentage yield:

Excess aluminum metal reacts with aqueous nickel(II) sulfate to produce aqueous aluminum sulfate and nickel as a precipitate. In this reaction 108 g of aluminum were combined with 464 g of nickel(II) sulfate to produce 274 g of aluminum sulfate.

Answer:

80%

Explanation:

The reaction equation is;

2Al(s) + 3NiSO4(aq) --------> Al2(SO4)3 + 3Ni(s)

Since Al is in excess then NiSO4 is the limiting reactant.

Number of moles in 464 g of NiSO4 = mass/ molar mass

Molar mass of NiSO4 = 155 g/mol

Number of moles = 464g/155g/mol = 2.99 moles

Number of moles of Al2(SO4)3 = mass/molar mass

molar mass = 342 g/mol

Number of moles = 274g/342g/mol = 0.8 moles

From the reaction equation;

3 moles of NiSO4 yields 1 mole of Al2(SO4)3

2.99 moles of NiSO4 yields 2.99 * 1/3 = 1 mole of Al2(SO4)3

% yield = actual yield/ theoretical yield * 100/1

actual yield =  0.8 moles of Al2(SO4)3

Theoretical yield = 1 mole of Al2(SO4)3

% yield = 0.8/1 * 100 = 80%

Answer:

electrical

Explanation:

With electrical energy, it's helpful to think of an on/off switch. When the switch is off, the electrical energy is stored as potential energy. When the switch is on, electrical energy is being used as kinetic energy.

1. Calculate the average reaction rate expressed in moles H2 consumed per liter per second.
valentina_108 [34]

Answer:

1) 0.0025 mol/L.s.

2) 0.0025 mol/L.s.

Explanation:

  • For the reaction:

<em>H₂ + Cl₂ → 2HCl.</em>

<em></em>

<em>The average reaction rate = - Δ[H₂]/Δt = - Δ[Cl₂]/Δt = 1/2 Δ[HCl]/Δt</em>

<em></em>

<em>1. Calculate the average reaction rate expressed in moles H₂ consumed per liter per second.</em>

<em></em>

The average reaction rate expressed in moles H₂ consumed per liter per second = - Δ[H₂]/Δt = - (0.02 M - 0.03 M)/(4.0 s) = 0.0025 mol/L.s.

<em>2. Calculate the average reaction rate expressed in moles CI₂ consumed per liter per second.</em>

<em></em>

The average reaction rate expressed in moles Cl₂ consumed per liter per second = - Δ[Cl₂]/Δt = - (0.04 M - 0.05 M)/(4.0 s) = 0.0025 mol/L.s.

Minerals are very useful to us. Which of the following is a false statement? Question options: Pyrite is an ore of gold and is u
lilavasa [31]

Answer:

The false statement is :

  • Pyrite is an ore of gold and is used in jewelry making.
  • Cobalt is not used in medicine.

Explanation:

Pyrite is an ore of iron sulfide found on the Earth and in coal, limestone and in many deposits of metallic ores. Due to its luster and pale yellowish color it appears as gold due to which it is also termed as Fool's gold.

It is used in firearms , in production of sulfur dioxide gas, etc.

Cobalt is used as medicine to treat cancer patient. Co-60 is used in treatment of cancer in which gamma rays produced by Co-60 are used  to kill tumor cells in a cancer patient.

Where as talc is used in industries like : paper making, food, paints, plastics etc. Quartz is primary material used to prepare glass and cobalt is used as
