Answer:

Approximately 81.84\%.

Explanation:

Balanced equation for this reaction:

{\rm Na_{2}CO_{3}}\, (aq) + {\rm CaCl_{2}} \, (aq) \to 2\; {\rm  NaCl}\, (aq) + {\rm CaCO_{3}}\, (s).

Look up the relative atomic mass of elements in the limiting reactant, \rm CaCl_{2}, as well as those in the product of interest, \rm CaCO_{3}:

  • \rm Ca: 40.078.
  • \rm Cl: 35.45.
  • \rm C: 12.011.
  • \rm O: 15.999.

Calculate the formula mass for both the limiting reactant and the product of interest:

\begin{aligned}& M({\rm CaCl_{2}}) \\ &= (40.078 + 2 \times 35.45)\; {\rm g \cdot mol^{-1}} \\ &= 110.978\; \rm g \cdot mol^{-1}\end{aligned}.

\begin{aligned}& M({\rm CaCO_{3}}) \\ &= (40.078 + 12.011 + 3 \times 15.999)\; {\rm g \cdot mol^{-1}} \\ &= 100.086\; \rm g \cdot mol^{-1}\end{aligned}.

Calculate the quantity of the limiting reactant (\rm CaCl_{2}) available to this reaction:

\begin{aligned}n({\rm CaCl_{2}) &= \frac{m({\rm {CaCl_{2}})}}{M({\rm CaCl_{2}})} \\ &= \frac{17.87\; \rm g}{110.978\; \rm g \cdot mol^{-1}} \\ &\approx 0.161023\; \rm mol \end{aligned}.

Refer to the balanced equation for this reaction. The coefficients of the limiting reactant (\rm CaCl_{2}) and the product ({\rm CaCO_{3}}) are both 1. Thus:

\displaystyle \frac{n({\rm CaCO_{3}})}{n({\rm CaCl_{2}})} = 1.

In other words, for every 1\; \rm mol of \rm CaCl_{2} formula units that are consumed, 1\; \rm mol\! of \rm CaCO_{3} formula units would (in theory) be produced. Thus, calculate the theoretical yield of \rm CaCO_{3}\! in this experiment:

\begin{aligned} & n(\text{${\rm CaCO_{3}}$, theoretical}) \\ =\; & n({\rm CaCl_{2}}) \cdot \frac{n({\rm CaCO_{3}})}{n({\rm CaCl_{2}})} \\ \approx \; & 0.161023\; {\rm mol} \times 1 \\ =\; & 0.161023\; \rm mol\end{aligned}.

Calculate the theoretical yield of this experiment in terms of the mass of \rm CaCO_{3} expected to be produced:

\begin{aligned} & m(\text{${\rm CaCO_{3}}$, theoretical}) \\ = \; & n(\text{${\rm CaCO_{3}}$, theoretical}) \cdot M(({\rm CaCO_{3}}) \\ \approx \; & 0.161023\; {\rm mol} \times 100.086\; {\rm g \cdot mol^{-1}} \\ \approx \; & 16.1161\; \rm g \end{aligned}.

Given that the actual yield in this question (in terms of the mass of \rm CaCO_{3}) is 13.19\; \rm g, calculate the percentage yield of this experiment:

\begin{aligned} & \text{percentage yield} \\ =\; & \frac{\text{actual yield}}{\text{theoretical yield}} \times 100\% \\ \approx \; & \frac{13.19\; {\rm g}}{16.1161\; {\rm g}} \times 100\% \\ \approx \; & 81.84\%\end{aligned}.

The electronegativity is 2.1 for h and 1.9 for pb. based on these electronegativities pbh4 would be expected to
Sedbober [7]
PbH4 will be formed as a result of a polar covalent bond between the H and the Pb.

Since H is more electronegative than the Pb, it is, thus, expected that the H would be able to pull the electron charge towards itself. This will result in the H being negative.

Based on this:
PbH4 would be expected to <span>have polar covalent bonds with a partial negative charges on the H atoms. </span>

Calculate the molarity and normality of 5.7 g of Ca(OH)2 in 450 mL of solution.
Kisachek [45]
  The  molarity   and  normality  of  5.7 g  of  Ca(OH)2   in  450ml  0f    solution  is  calculated  as  follows

molarity  =  moles/volume in  liters
moles  =mass/molar  mass
=  5.7g/74g/mol  =  0.077moles
molarity =  0.077/450  x1000= 0.17M

Normality =  equivalent  point  x molarity
equivalent  point  of Ca(OH)2  is  2   since  it has  two  Hydrogen  atom

normality  is therefore =  0.17  x2 = 0.34 N

Displacement Reactions involving Acids Reaction Observations (Before mixing) Both clear Classify Reaction (Select all that apply
Soloha48 [4]

A reaction in which heat is evolved is an exothermic reaction while a reaction in which heat is absorbed is an endothermic reaction.

In the first case; Na2CO3 + H2SO4, we can see that this is an acid - base reaction therefore it is a neutralization reaction. Since the tube was hot after reaction, heat is given off so it is exothermic.

In the second case; NaOH + H2SO4, we can see that this is an acid - base reaction therefore it is a neutralization reaction. We are told that the tube is not hot but we don't know the initial temperature of the tube or if it was colder than it's initial temperature so we can not make any inference regarding whether the reaction is endothermic or exothermic.

Lastly, the reaction, NaCl + HC2H5OH does not occur so we mark "no reaction". We are told that the tube is not hot but we don't know the initial temperature of the tube or if it was colder than it's initial temperature so we can not make any inference regarding whether the reaction is endothermic or exothermic.
