A reaction produces 10.5 L if oxygen, but was supposed to produce 1 mol of oxygen. What is the percent yield ? (One mole of any
Rzqust [24]
To answer this item, we assume that oxygen behaves ideally such that it is able to fulfill the following equation,

 PV = nRT

If we are to retain constant the variable n and V. 

The percent yield can therefore be solved through the following calculation,

   n = (10.5 L)/(22.4 L)   x 100%

Simplifying,
    n = 46.875%

Answer: 48.87%

Suggest one reason why cans are not made entirely from tin
Butoxors [25]

Cans aren't entirely made of tin because of rusting. When scratched(which happens quite frequently to cans) the tin is in more danger of rusting. This is why the cans are coated in a layer of tin rather than the whole can is made of it.
