The correct answer is the second option. Particulate matter is the air pollutant known to affect people with asthma. It also can cause other illnesses like cough, chest discomfort and a burning sensation in the lungs.
Galactic recycling is a natural phenomenon in which the stars expel some gas into the space so that it would mix with the interstellar medium. As a result, this would produce new younger stars. So, basically, the concept done here is the mass and energy conservation. In order to create new species, the energy must come from another source.
86 percent is the percent yield for this experiment if he expected to produce 5g of product.
Explanation:
Given that:
mass of test tube = 5 grams
mass of test tube + reactant is 12.5 grams
mass of reactant = ( mass of test tube + reactant ) - (mass of test tube)
mass of reactant = 12.5 -5
= 7.5 grams
when 7.5 grams of reactant is heated mass of test tube was found to be 9.3 grams.
so mass of product formed = 9.3 - 5
= 4. 3 grams of product is formed (actual yield)
However, he expected the product to be 5 grams (theoretical yield)
Percent yield =
x 100
putting the values in the formula:
percent yield =
x 100
= 86 %
86 percent is the percent yield.
