4p + 5O2 -> P4O10 ; the percent yield of PO4O10 when 6.20 g of phosphorus burns into excess oxygen is 67.0%. What is the yiel

Answer:    36.9 g

Explanation:

P4 + 5O2 = P4O10  Balanced equation

moles P4 present = 23.9 g x 1 mole/123.88 g = 0.193 moles

moles O2 present = 20.8 g x 1 mol/32 g = 0.65 moles O2

From balanced equation, mole ratio O2 : P4 is 5:1.  Is 0.65 moles O2 5x 0.193 moles?  NO.  You don't have enough O2.

O2 is limiting in this reaction.

 

theoretical moles of P4O10 = 0.65 moles O2 x 1 mole P4O10/5 moles O2 = 0.13 moles P4O10

mass of P4O10 produced = 0.13 moles x 283.9 g = 36.9 g

Why are the trends and exceptions to the trends in ionization energy observed? Check all that apply. Ionization energy tends to
NNADVOKAT [17]
The trends and exceptions to the trends in ionization energy observed includes;
B, ionization energy tends to increase across a period because the nuclear charge increases.
C, ionization energy tends to increase across a period because electrons are added to the same main energy level.
E, The ionization energies of elements in Group 13 tend to be lower than the elements in Group 2 because the full s orbital shields the electron, in the p orbital from the nucleus. 
Ionization energies measure the tendency of a neutral atom to resist the loss of electrons. It takes a considerable amount of energy, for example to remove an electron from a neutral fluorine atom to form a positively charged ion. <span />

In the manufacture of paper, logs are cut into small chips, which are stirred into an alkaline solution that dissolves several o
Kitty [74]

Answer:

The estimated feed rate of logs is 14.3 logs/min.

Explanation:

The product of the process is 2000 tons/day of dry wood pulp, of 85 wt% of cellulose. That represents (2000*0.85)=1700 tons/day of cellulose.

That cellulose has to be feed by the wood chips, which had 47 wt% of cellulose in its composition. That means you need (1700/0.47)=3617 tons/day of wood chips to provide all that cellulose.

Th entering flow is wood chips with 45 wt% of water. This solution has an specific gravity of 0.640.

To know the specific gravity of the wood chips we have to write a volume balance. We also know that Mw=0.45*M and Mc=0.55*M.

V=V_c+V_w\\\\M/\rho=M_c/\rho_c+Mw/\rho_w\\\\M/\rho=0.55*M/\rho_c+0.45*M/\rho_w\\\\1/\rho=0.55/\rho_c +0.45/\rho_w\\\\0.55/\rho_c=1/\rho-0.45/\rho_w\\\\0.55/\rho_c=1/(0.64*\rho_w)-0.45/\rho_w=(1/\rho_w)*(\frac{1}{0.64}-\frac{0.45}{1}  )\\\\0.55/\rho_c=1.1125/\rho_w\\\\\rho_c=\frac{0.55}{1.1125}*\rho_w= 0.494*\rho_w

The specific gravity of the wood chips is 0.494.

The average volume of a log is

V_l=(\pi*D^{2} /4)*L=(3.1416*\frac{8^{2}  \, in^{2} }{4} )*9ft*(\frac{12 in}{1ft})= 21714 in^{3}=12.57 ft^{3}

The weight of one log is

M=\rho*V=0.494*\rho_w*12.57  ft^{3}\\\\M=0.494*62.4\frac{lbm}{ft^{3} }*12.57ft^{3}\\\\M=387.5lbm

To provide 3617 ton/day of wood chips, we need

n=\frac{supply}{M_{log}}=\frac{3617 tons/day}{387.5 lbm}*\frac{2204lbm}{1ton}\\\\n=20573 logs/day=14.3 logs/min

The feed rate of logs is 14.3 logs/min.
