The percentage yield obtained from the given reaction above is 74.8%

<h3>Balanced equation </h3>

P₄ + 6Cl₂ → 4PCl₃

Molar mass of P₄ = 31 × 4 = 124 g/mol

Mass of P₄ from the balanced equation = 1 × 124 = 124 g

Molar mass of PCl₃ = 31 + (35.5×3) = 137.5 g/mol

Mass of PCl₃ from the balanced equation = 4 × 137.5 = 550 g

<h3>SUMMARY</h3>

From the balanced equation above,

124 g of P₄ reacted to produce 550 g of PCl₃

<h3>How to determine the theoretical yield </h3>

From the balanced equation above,

124 g of P₄ reacted to produce 550 g of PCl₃

Therefore,

79.12 g of P₄ will react to produce = (79.12 × 550) / 124 = 350.9 g of PCl₃

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

Actual yield of PCl₃ = 262.6 g
Theoretical yield of PCl₃ = 350.9 g

Percentage yield =?

Percentage yield = (Actual /Theoretical) × 100

Percentage yield = (262.6 / 350.9) × 100

Percentage yield = 74.8%

Describe happens when you move any atom toward the positive nuclear charge.

bekas [8.4K]

Answer:

Across a period, effective nuclear charge increases as electron shielding remains constant. A higher effective nuclear charge causes greater attractions to the electrons, pulling the electron cloud closer to the nucleus which results in a smaller atomic radius. ... This results in a larger atomic radius.

Answer: <u><em>Option B; It traps light energy and converts it into chemical energy.</em></u>

<h2>Explanation: This substance is chlorophyll. It is a pigment present in leaves of all plants. It absorbs light energy and provides it to carry out the process of photosynthesis. Light energy is converted into chemical energy, in form of NADPH and ATP, which can be used by plants for photosynthesis.</h2><h2></h2><h2>This pigment is present only in plants, so option A is incorrect.</h2><h2></h2><h2>This pigment only absorbs and transfers energy to other molecules, and is not associated with carbon dioxide directly, so option C and D are also incorrect.</h2>

How far apart must two point charges of 75.0 nC (typical of static electricity) be to have a force of 1.00 N between them? (answ

Jet001 [13]

Answer:

7.12 mm

Explanation:

From coulomb's law,

F = kqq'/r².................... Equation 1

Where F = force, k = proportionality constant, q and q' = The two point charges, r = distance between the two charges.

Make r the subject of the equation,

r = √(kqq'/F).......................... Equation 2

Given: q = q' = 75.0 nC = 75×10⁻⁹ C, F = 1.00 N

Constant: k = 9.0×10⁹ Nm²/C².

Substitute into equation 2

r = √[ (75×10⁻⁹ )²9.0×10⁹/1]

r = 75×10⁻⁹.√(9.0×10⁹)

r = (75×10⁻⁹)(9.49×10⁴)

r = 711.75×10⁻⁵

r = 7.12×10⁻³ m

r = 7.12 mm

Hence the distance between the point charge = 7.12 mm

1. The answer is option E, that is None of the above is correct.

As a polymer becomes more crystalline,

its melting point doesn't decreases, its density doesn't decreases, its stiffness doesn't decreases and its yield stress doesn't decreases.

2. The answer is option B, that is the molecules are arranged in sheets, with their long axes parallel and their ends aligned as well.

In the smectic A liquid-crystalline phase, molecules are arranged in sheets, with their long axes parallel and their ends aligned as well.
