Black smokers are found in the depths of the oceans. Thinking that the conditions in these smokers might be conducive to the formation of organic compounds, two chemists in Germany found the following reaction could occur in similar conditions. 2 CH3 SH + CO CH3 COSCH3 + H2S If you begin with 37.8 g of CH3 SH and excess CO, what is the theoretical yield of CH3 COSCH3 ? g CH3 COSCH3 If you isolate 23.3 g of CH3 COSCH3, what is the percent yield of CH3COSCH3 ?

Phosphoric acid, a mild acid used among other things as a rust inhibitor, food additive, and etching agent for cavity repair by dentists, can be made from elemental phosphorus in a two step process. In the first step, phosphorus and oxygen react to form diphosphorus pentoxide: P4(s) + 5O2(g) -> 2P2O5(g) In the second step, diphosphorus pentoxide and water react to form phosphoric acid H3PO4: P2O5(g) + 3H2O(l) -> 2H3PO4(l) Suppose the yield of the first step is 69.% and the yield of the second step is 82.%. Calculate the mass of phosphorus required to make 1.0kg of phosphoric acid. Be sure your answer has a unit symbol, if needed, and is rounded to the correct number of significant digits.
