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%

Describe how hydrogen and oxygen form water.
bekas [8.4K]
Hydrogen and Oxygen by themselves have 1 and 6 valence electrons, respectively. 8 valence electrons is stable, so the atoms form bonds with each other to achieve 8 valence e-.

1 H atom + 1 H atom + 1 O atom = 8 valence e-

Calculate the boiling temperature of a 0.50 M solution of sucrose. Assume that the concentration is 0.50 m.
Ronch [10]
There is one missing point in the question.

The formula to find an increase in boiling Temperature is :

ΔT = kb x M

ΔT = is the increase in boiling Temperature
Kb = Boiling point constant of the Solvent
M = Molarity

You did not provide the Kb. If you have it, you just have to insert it to the formula to find the ΔT.


And assuming that the other solution is water, you just have to add it up with 100 Celcius
