Answer:

a) <em>Theoretical Yield of HF = 5.64 grams</em>

b) <em>Percentage Yield = 39%</em>

Explanation:

Reaction Given:

CaF2 + H2SO4 -> CaSO4 + 2HF

CaF2 = 11g

H2SO4 = Used in excess

HF = 2.2 g production = Actual Yield

So, Let's write down the molar masses:

Molar Mass of CaF2 = 78 g /mol

Molar Mass of HF = 20 g/mol

From the reaction, we can see the 1 mole of CaF2 gives the 2 moles of HF

i.e

a) Theoretical Yield of HF:

1 mole CaF2 = 2 moles HF

78 g CaF2 = 2 x 20 g of HF

78 g CaF2 = 40 g of HF

1 g CaF2 = 40g/78g of HF

And in the question it is given that chemist used 11 g of CaF2 so,

1 x 11 g of CaF2 = 11 x 40/78 g of HF

11 g of CaF2 = 440/78 g of HF

11 g of CaF2 = 5.64 g of HF

And this is the theoretical yield

<em>Theoretical Yield of HF = 5.64 grams</em>

b) Now, calculate the Percentage Yield of HF

<em>Percentage Yield = Actual Yield /Theoretical Yield x 100</em>

Percentage Yield = 2.2 g /5.64 g x 100

Percentage Yield = 39%

Which unit conversion allows you to convert 21.0 gallons into milliliters?
Ulleksa [173]

Answer:

Explanation:

we are given

there are in 0.073 gallons

we can see that there are two non-zero places after decimals

so, there are two siginificant figures

step-1: Change gallons to quarts

we know that

1 gallon = 4 quarts

so, we can write as

step-2: Change into liter

we know that

1 liter = 1.057 quarts

or

step-3: Change into millilitre

we know that

Since, it is asking for only two significant figures

so, we can also write as

pav-90 [236]

Answer:

As a substance changes from a solid to a liquid to a gas, its molecules first the molecules are moving fast enough, they are able to "escape." They leave the surface of the liquid as gas molecules. Evaporation is not the only process that can change a substance from a liquid to a gas. The same change can occur through boiling.

What vocabulary term refers to the offspring when it possesses the same trait for both genes?​
shusha [124]

Given what we know, we can confirm that the term used to describe an offspring that possesses the same trait for both genes is homzygous.

<h3>What does it mean to be homzygous?</h3>

This is as indicated in the question, it refers to organisms that have inherited the same allele for a gene from both parents. Meaning that both variations of said gene in this individual are the same and therefore, there is no possibility of a distinct expression.

Therefore, we can confirm that the term used to describe an offspring when it possesses the same trait for both genes is homzygous.
