Question 1
The moles of PCl5 is 3 moles
calculation
PCl3 +Cl2 →PCl5
from equation above the mole ratio of cl2 :PCl5 is 1:1 therefore the moles of PCl5 is also= 3.00 moles ( answer C)
question 2
The moles of Co that are made is 12 moles
calculation
Fe2O3 +3Co →2Fe + 3CO2
from equation above the mole ratio of CO:CO2 is 3:3 therefore the moles of CO = 12.0 moles x 3/3 = 12 moles
question 3
The moles of SO3 is 4 moles
calculation
2SO2 +O2→ 2SO3
from equation above the mole ratio of SO2:SO3 is 2:2 therefore the moles of SO3
= 4 x2/2 = 4 moles
question 4
The moles of iron (iii) oxide is 4 moles
calculation
4Fe +3O2 → 2Fe2O3
from equation above the moles of O2 :Fe2O3 is 3:2 therefore the moles of Fe2O3 is
= 6 moles x 2/3 = 4 moles
Question 5
The volume 2.00 moles of gas take up is 44.8 L
calculation
At STP 1 mole= 22.4 L
2 moles =?
by cross multiplication =( 2 moles x 22.4 L) /1 mole =44.8 L
Question 6
3.0 liters of unknown gas at STP can calculate moles of representative particles
Explanation
At STP 1 mole = 22.4 l
? moles = 3 L
by cross multiplication = ( 3L x 1 mole) / 22.4 L=0.134 moles
Therefore 3.0 L of unknown gas can be used to calculate the moles of representative particles
Question 7
The limiting reagent is Mg
Step-by-step explanation
Mg +2HCl → MgCl2 +H2
calculate the moles of each reactant
moles=mass/molar mass
moles of Mg= 48.6 g/24.3 =2 moles
moles of HCl = 150.0/36.5 = 4.11 moles
The moles ratio of Mg:MgCl2 is 1:1 therefore Mg reacted to produce 2 moles of MgCl2
The mole ratio of HCl :MgCl2 is 2:1 therefore the HCl reacted to produce 4.11 x1/2 =2.055 moles of MgCl2
since Mg is total consumed Mg is the limiting reagent
Question 8
The mass of H2 produced is 2.00 g
calculation
Mg +2 HCl → MgCl2 +H2
calculate the moles of each reactant
moles of mg = 24.3 g/24.3 g/mol= 1 mole
for H2 = 75.0 g/ 2 g/mol =37.5 moles
Mg is the limiting reagent
The mole ratio of Mg:H2 is 1:1 therefore the moles of H2 = 1 mole
mass= moles x molar mass
= 1 mole x 2 g/mol = 2.00 g
Question 9
it is true that the limiting reagent is the reactant that is completely consumed in a chemical reaction and limits the amount of product.
question 10
The % yield is 83.3%
calculation
% yield =actual yield /theoretical yield x 100
actual yield = 85.0 g
calculate the theoretical yield as below
N2(g) +3 H2 → 2NH3
find the moles of N2 = mass/molar mass
moles of N2 = 84.0g /28g/mol= 3 moles
from equation above the mole ratio of N2: NH3 is 1:2 therefore the moles of NH3
=3 mole x2 = 6 moles
Theoretical mass = moles x molar mass
= 6 moles x 17 g/mol = 102 g
% yield is therefore = 85 g 102 g x 100 =83.3%
Question 11
The % yield is 86.6%
calculation
% yield = actual moles/theoretical moles x 100
theoretical moles = 3.55 moles
calculate the actual moles as below
moles= mass/molar mass
= 618 g /201 g/mol =3.075 moles
% yield = 3.075 /3.55 x 100 = 86.6%
Question 12
The % yield of this reaction is 88.2%
calculation
% yield = actual mass/theoretical mass x 100
actual mass = 120 g
calculate the theoretical mass as below
N2 +3 H2 → 2NH3
find the moles of N2 = mass/molar mass
=112 g /28 = 4 moles
from the equation above the mole ratio of N2:NH3 is 1:2 rherefore the moles of NH3
= 4 moles x2 = 8 moles
the theoretical mass of NH3 is = moles x molar mass
= 8 moles x 1 7 g /mol = 136 g
% yield = 120 g/136 g x100 =88.2%
question 13
False that once the percent yield has been determined for reaction, that percent yield will never vary.
Step-by-step explanation
The percent yield may vary due to other external factors such as temperature which affect chemical equation
question 14
false The theoretical yield for a chemical reaction can be calculated before the reaction is complete .
The theoretical yield can be calculated by determining the expected ratio of number of moles of limiting reactant.
