Answer:
Explanation:
a) The mass of the reactants is 2.36 grams, and the mass of the products is 1.57 grams plus the mass of the carbonic acid. Thus, using the law of conservation of mass, we get the mass of the carbonic acid is 2.36 - 1.57 = 0.79 grams.
b) The gram-formula mass of sodium bicarbonate is 84.006 g/mol, meaning that 2.36/84.006 = 0.028 moles were consumed. Thus, this means that in theory, 0.014 moles of carbonic acid should have been produced, which would have a mass of (0.014)(62.024)=0.868 grams. Thus, the percentage yield is (0.79)/(0.868) * 100 = 91%
Answer:
Cracking.
Explanation:
A chemical reaction can be defined as a reaction in which two or more atoms of a chemical element react to form a chemical compound. An example of a chemical reaction involving hydrocarbons is cracking.
Hydrocarbon can be defined as an organic compound that comprises of hydrogen and carbon only.
In Organic chemistry, cracking refers to the process of lowering the boiling point of a heavy, complex or long-chain hydrocarbon such as kerogens by exposing it to different environmental treatments such as hydrogen enriched catalysts, pressure or high temperatures, in order to produce smaller, lighter and more useful molecules (alkanes and alkenes) such as gasoline, diesel fuel, etc.
