At the beginning of the school year, a chalk company receives an order for 2000 boxes which is the largest order ever placed. Ea

ch box contains 175 grams of chalk. With the efficiency of their product production at 74%, they produce just enough to match the order. What was the theoretical yield?

Answer:

  • <u>259,000 g of chalk.</u>

Explanation:

<u>1) Data:</u>

a) 2000 boxes

b) 175 g / box

c) % yield = 74%

<u>2) Formula: </u>

  • % yield = (theoretical yield / actual yield) × 100

<u>3) Solution:</u>

a) Calcualte the actual yield:

  • mass of product = 2000 box × 175 g/ box = 350,000 g

b) Solve for the theoretical yield from the % yield formula:

  • % yield = (theoretical yield / actual yield) × 100

        ⇒ theoretical yield = % yield × actual yield / 100

             theoretical yield = 74% × 350,000g / 100 = 259,000 g

Nh4i(aq)+koh(aq)→ express your answer as a chemical equation. identify all of the phases in your answer.
tester [92]
NH4I (aq)  +  KOH  (aq)  in   chemical   equation  gives

   NH4I (aq)  +  KOH (aq)   =  KI  (aq)  +  H2O(l)  +  NH3  (l)

Ki  is  in  aqueous  state  H2o   is  in   liquid  state  while  NH3  is  in  liquid  state

from  the  equation  above  1 mole of  NH4I (aq) react  with  1 mole of KOH(aq) to  form  1mole of KI(aq) ,  1mole of H2O(l)  and 1  Mole  of NH3(l)

An old sample of concentrated sulfuric acid to be used in the laboratory is approximately 98.1 percent h2so4 by mass. calculate
Airida [17]
Basis: 100 mL solution

From the given density, we calculate for the mass of the solution.

                        density  = mass / volume
                        mass = density x volume

                       mass = (1.83 g/mL) x (100 mL) = 183 grams

Then, we calculate for the mass H2SO4 given the percentage.
                   
                      mass of H2SO4 = (183 grams) x (0.981) = 179.523 grams

Calculate for the number of moles of H2SO4,
                  moles H2SO4 = (179.523 grams) / (98.079 g/mol)
                        moles H2SO4 = 1.83 moles

Molarity:
                     M = moles H2SO4 / volume solution (in L)
                         = 1.83 moles / (0.1L ) = 18.3 M

Molality:
                     m = moles of H2SO4 / kg of solvent
                        = 1.83 moles / (183 g)(1-0.983)(1 kg/ 1000 g) = 588.24 m

If 32.0 g of MgSO4⋅7H2O is thoroughly heated, what mass of anhydrous magnesium sulfate will remain?
Arada [10]
Find moles of MgSO4.7H2O

molar mass = 246
so moles  = 32 / 246  = 0.13 moles.

When heated, all 7 H2O from 1 molecule will be gone. 
total moles of H2O present = 7 x 0.13 = 0.91
mass of those H2O = 0.91 x 18  = 16.38g

so mass of anyhydrous MgSO4 remain = 32 - 16.38 = 15.62 g

Use enthalpies of formation given in appendix c to calculate δh for the reaction br2(g)→2br(g), and use this value to estimate t
Contact [7]

Given reaction represents dissociation of bromine gas to form bromine atoms

Br2(g) ↔ 2Br(g)

The enthalpy of the above reaction is given as:

ΔH = ∑n(products)ΔH^{0}f(products) - ∑n(reactants)ΔH^{0}f(reactants)

where n = number of moles

ΔH^{0}f= enthalpy of formation

ΔH = [2*ΔH(Br(g)) - ΔH(Br2(g))] = 2*111.9 - 30.9 = 192.9 kJ/mol

Thus, enthalpy of dissociation is the bond energy of Br-Br = 192.9 kJ/mol

How many grams of NO are required to produce 145 g of N2 in the following reaction?
V125BC [204]

Answer:

b. 186 g

Explanation:

Step 1: Write the balanced equation.

4 NH₃(g) + 6 NO(g) → 5 N₂(g) + 6 H₂O(l)

Step 2: Calculate the moles corresponding to 145 g of N₂

The molar mass of nitrogen is 28.01 g/mol.

145g \times \frac{1mol}{28.01 g} =5.18 mol

Step 3: Calculate the moles of NO required to produce 5.18 moles of N₂

The molar ratio of NO to N₂ is 6:5.

5.18molN_2 \times \frac{6molNO}{5molN_2} = 6.22molNO

Step 4: Calculate the mass corresponding to 6.22 moles of NO

The molar mass of NO is 30.01 g/mol.

6.22mol \times \frac{30.01g}{mol} =186 g
