An element that exist as a discreet atom has only one atom which can stand alone on its own. Example of this is Neon, which is a noble gas. The chemical symbol for neon is Ne.
Elements are able to exist as discreet atom because they are chemical stable and inert.
Answer:
The answer to your question is: 83.9 %
Explanation:
Data
Cu = 31.8 g
S = 50 g
CuS = 40 g
yield = ?
Equation
Cu + S ⇒ CuS
MW Cu = 64 g
MW S = 32 g
MW CuS = 96 g
Ratio (theoretical/experimental)
Experimental 50/31.8 = 1.57
Theoretical 32/64 = 0.5 limiting reactant Cu
64 g of Cu ------------------ 96 g of CuS
31.8 g ------------------- x
x = (31.8 x 96) / 64
x = 47.7 g of CuS
% yield = (40/47.7) x 100
= 83.9 %
Answer:
1. electrons
2. From "Y" to "X"
Explanation:
1. Electrons move between the rod since the electrons are the only charge carriers which are free to move.
2. The particles move from from "Y" to "X" since the electrons are the only charge carriers which are free to move. The positive charge on rod x is due to a deficit of electrons while the negative charge on rod Y is due to the excess of electrons. When the rods come together, the electrons move from "Y" to "X" since the electrons are the only charge carriers which are free to move.
