Answer:

No percent yield is actual yields/ theoretical yields .x 100%.

Explanation:

The theoretical yield is the maximum amount of product that could be formed from given amounts of products. The actual yield must be less than or equal to the theoretical theory.

Is vapor pressure and atmospheric pressure the same thing? If not, how?

Marat540 [252]

The air pressure is a measure of the pressure of the air. The vapour pressure of a liquid, say, water, is a function of its temperature and does not depend on the air pressure. ... Its vapour pressure is higher than atmospheric pressure so its temperature is higher than the boiling point of water.

. Determine the standard free energy change, ɔ(G p for the formation of S2−(aq) given that the ɔ(G p for Ag+(aq) and Ag2S(s) are

olga nikolaevna [1]

<u>Answer:</u> The standard free energy change of formation of $S^{2-}(aq.)$ is 92.094 kJ/mol

<u>Explanation:</u>

We are given:

$K_{sp}\text{ of }Ag_2S=8\times 10^{-51}$

Relation between standard Gibbs free energy and equilibrium constant follows:

$\Delta G^o=-RT\ln K$

where,

$\Delta G^o$ = standard Gibbs free energy = ?

R = Gas constant = $8.314J/K mol$

T = temperature = $25^oC=[273+25]K=298K$

K = equilibrium constant or solubility product = $8\times 10^{-51}$

Putting values in above equation, we get:

$\Delta G^o=-(8.314J/K.mol)\times 298K\times \ln (8\times 10^{-51})\\\\\Delta G^o=285793.9J/mol=285.794kJ$

For the given chemical equation:

$Ag_2S(s)\rightleftharpoons 2Ag^+(aq.)+S^{2-}(aq.)$

The equation used to calculate Gibbs free change is of a reaction is:

$\Delta G^o_{rxn}=\sum [n\times \Delta G^o_f_{(product)}]-\sum [n\times \Delta G^o_f_{(reactant)}]$

The equation for the Gibbs free energy change of the above reaction is:

$\Delta G^o_{rxn}=[(2\times \Delta G^o_f_{(Ag^+(aq.))})+(1\times \Delta G^o_f_{(S^{2-}(aq.))})]-[(1\times \Delta G^o_f_{(Ag_2S(s))})]$

We are given:

$\Delta G^o_f_{(Ag_2S(s))}=-39.5kJ/mol\\\Delta G^o_f_{(Ag^+(aq.))}=77.1kJ/mol\\\Delta G^o=285.794kJ$

Putting values in above equation, we get:

$285.794=[(2\times 77.1)+(1\times \Delta G^o_f_{(S^{2-}(aq.))})]-[(1\times (-39.5))]\\\\\Delta G^o_f_{(S^{2-}(aq.))=92.094J/mol$

Hence, the standard free energy change of formation of $S^{2-}(aq.)$ is 92.094 kJ/mol
