A. The maximum possible mass of sodium that can be produced is 47.18 Kg

B. The percentage yield of the reaction is 80.6%

<h3>Determination of the mass of NaCl and Na </h3>

We'll begin by calculating the mass of NaCl that reacted and the mass of Na obtained from the balanced equation.

2NaCl –> 2Na + Cl₂

Molar mass NaCl = 23 + 35.5 = 58.5 g/mol

Mass of NaCl from the balanced equation = 2 × 58.5 = 117 g = 117 / 1000 = 0.117 Kg

Molar mass of Na = 23 g/mol

Mass of Na from the balanced equation = 2 × 23 = 46 g = 46 / 1000 = 0.046 Kg

SUMMARY

From the balanced equation above,

0.117 Kg of NaCl reacted to produce 0.046 Kg of Na.

<h3>A. How to determine mass of Na produced </h3>

From the balanced equation above,

0.117 Kg of NaCl reacted to produce 0.046 Kg of Na.

Therefore,

120 Kg of NaCl will react to produce = (120 × 0.046) / 0.117 = 47.18 Kg of Na

Thus, the maximum mass of Na produced is 47.18 Kg.

<h3>B. How to determine the percentage yield </h3>

Actual yield = 38.05 Kg
Theoretical yield = 47.18 Kg

Percentage yield =?

Percentage yield = (Actual / Theoretical) × 100

Percentage yield = (38.05 / 47.18) × 100

Percentage yield = 80.6%

Question 21

Mumz [18]

There are 2 moles of O stones present in 88 grams of CO2. Why? Well, we can find the amount of moles present in 88 grams of CO2 by dividing the mass by the molar mass. The mass of CO2 comes out to be 88 grams. The molar mass of CO2 comes out to be 44 grams. Because 88 is the mass of CO2 and 44 is the molar mass of CO2, we can divide 88 by 44 to identify that there are 2.0 moles of O atoms present in 88 grams of CO2.

Your final answer: There are 2.0 moles of O atoms present in 88 grams of CO2. Your final answer to this question is D, or 2.0 moles. If you need to better understand, let me know and I will gladly assist you.

What volume of Co2 (carbon (iv) oxide)

hram777 [196]

Answer:

2.1056L or 2105.6mL

Explanation:

We'll begin by calculating the number of mole in 10g of Na2CO3. This can be obtained as follow:

Molar mass of Na2CO3 = (23x2) + 12 + (16x3) = 106g/mol

Mass of Na2CO3 = 10g

Mole of Na2CO3 =.?

Mole = mass /molar mass

Mole of Na2CO3 = 10/106

Mole of Na2CO3 = 0.094 mole

Next, we shall determine the number of mole CO2 produced by the reaction of 0.094 mole of Na2CO3. This is illustrated below:

Na2CO3 + 2HCl —> 2NaCl + H2O + CO2

From the balanced equation above,

1 mole of Na2CO3 reacted to produce 1 mole of CO2.

Therefore, 0.094 mole of Na2CO3 will also react to 0.094 mole of CO2.

Next, we shall determine the volume occupied by 0.094 mole of CO2 at STP. This is illustrated below:

1 mole of a gas occupy 22.4L at STP. This implies that 1 mole CO2 occupies 22.4L at STP.

Now, if 1 mole of CO2 occupy 22.4L at STP, then, 0.094 mole of CO2 will occupy = 0.094 x 22.4 = 2.1056L

Therefore, the volume of CO2 produced is 2.1056L or 2105.6mL
