In any reaction, the percent yield is affected by many factors, such as having less than 100% the purity of reagents, the possibility of side reactions and loss of materials during transfer between containers. In a process involving a series of reactions such as those carried out in the Chemistry of Copper lab, each reaction has specific factors affecting its percent yield. In the hypothetical 4-step process below, the typical percent yield is given for each step. If you started the process with 25.00 g of A, what mass of hE would you expect to have at e end of the process? 1. A B Typical yield: 93.5% 2. B C Typical yield: 95.8% 3. C D Typical yield: 88.6% 4. D E Typical yield: 91.4% Select one: 18.1 g 72.5% 23.1 g O 22.2 17.3 g

Alkali metal hydroxides are sometimes used to “scrub” excess carbon dioxide from the air in closed spaces (such as submarines and spacecraft). For example, lithium hydroxide reacts with carbon dioxide according to the unbalanced chemical equation :math>LiOH(s)+CO2(g)Li2CO3(s)+H2O(g) ppose a lithium hydroxide canister contains 155 g of LiOH(s). What mass of CO2(g)will the canister be able to absorb? If it is found that after 24 hours of use the canister has absorbed 102 g of carbon dioxide, what percentage of its capacity has been reached?
Classify each of the following statements as true or false: a Coefficients in a chemical equation express the molar proportions among both reactants and products. b A stoichiometry problem can be solved with an unbalanced equation. c In solving a stoichiometry problem, the change from quantity of given substance to quantity of wanted substance is based on masses. d Percentage yield is actual yield expressed as a percentage of ideal yield. e The quantity of product of any reaction can be calculated only through the moles of the limiting reactant. f rH is positive for an endothermic reaction and negative for an exothermic reaction.
Explain how one determines which reactant in a process is the limiting reactant. Does this depend only on the masses of the reactant present? Give an example of how to determine the limiting reactant by using a Before-Change-After (RCA) table with a balanced chemical equation and reactant starling amounts.
The gaseous hydrocarbon acetylene, C2H2, is used in welders’ torches because of the large amount of heat released when acetylene burns with oxygen. :math>2C2H2(g)+5O2(g)4CO2(g)+2H2O(g) w many grams of oxygen gas are needed for the complete combustion of 150 g of acetylene?
An experiment is conducted in which varying amounts of solid iron are added to a fixed volume of liquid bromine. The product of the reaction is a single compound, which can be separated from the product mixture and weighed. The graph shows the relationship between the mass of iron in each trail versus the mass of the product compound. Explain why the group has a positive slope for low masses of iron and a zero slope when the mass of iron added becomes larger.
What is the theoretical yield for a reaction, and how does this quantity depend on the limiting reactant?
For the chemical reaction C3H8O2+4O23CO2+4H2O how many product molecules are formed when nine C3H8O2 molecules react?
Freon-12, CCl2F2, is prepared from CCl4 by reaction with HF. The other product of this reaction is HCl. Outline the steps needed to determine the percent yield of a reaction that produces 12.5 g of CCl2F2 from 32.9 g of Cd4. Freon-12 has been banned and is no longer used as a refrigerant because it catalyzes the decomposition of ozone and has a very long lifetime in the atmosphere. Determine the percent yield.
You have seven closed containers, each with equal masses of chlorine gas (Cl2) . You add 10.0 g of sodium to the first sample, 20.0 g of sodium to the second sample, and so on (adding 70.0 g of sodium to the seventh sample). Sodium and chlorine react to form sodium chloride according to the equation 2Na(s)+Cl22NaCl(s) After each reaction is complete, you collect and measure the amount of sodium chloride formed. A graph of your results is shown below. Answer the following questions: a. Explain the shape of the graph. b. Calculate the mass of NaCl formed when 20.0 g of sodium is used. c. Calculate the mass of Cl2 in each container. d. Calculate the mass of NaCl formed when 50.0 g of sodium is used. e. Identify the leftover reactant, and determine its mass for parts b and d above.
3.75 The following pictures show a molecular-scale view of a chemical reaction between the compounds AB2 and B2. (A atoms are shown in blue and B atoms in white). The box on the left represents the reactants at the instant of mixing, and the box on the right shows what is left once the reac- tion has gone to completion. Write a balanced chemical equation for this reaction. As usual, your equation should use the smallest possible whole number coefficients for all substances.
A possible practical way to eliminate oxides of nitrogen(such as NO2 ) from automobile exhaust gases uses cyanuricacid, C3N3(OH)3 . When heated to the relatively lowtemperature of 625°F, cyanuric acid converts to gaseousisocyanic acid (HNCO). Isocyanic acid reacts with NO2 inthe exhaust to form nitrogen, carbon dioxide, and water,all of which are normal constituents of the air. (a) Write balanced equations for these two reactions. (b) If the process described earlier became practical, howmuch cyanuric acid (in kilograms) would be requiredto absorb the 1.71010kgNO2 generated annuallyin auto exhaust in the United States?
