Concept explainers

Stoichiometry

Stoichiometry is a chemical division that evaluates the quantitative content of the chemical process with the help of the reacting molecules or products taking part in the reaction. The term “stoicheion” in “Stoichiometry”, is an old Greek term for "element" whereas “metron” means "measure".

Question

### Title: Silver Recovery via Reduction Reaction

In this example, silver metal is recovered during the reduction of silver nitrate:
\[ \text{Cu}(s) + 2 \text{AgNO}_3(aq) \rightarrow 2 \text{Ag}(s) + \text{Cu(NO}_3)_2(aq) \]

**Problem Statement:**
During an experiment, 125 grams of copper (Cu) were placed into a solution containing 275 grams of silver nitrate (AgNO₃). As a result, 135 grams of silver (Ag) were recovered. The task is to determine the percent yield of the silver (Ag) obtained.

**Details:**
- **Cu (Copper):** 125 grams
- **AgNO₃ (silver nitrate):** 275 grams
- **Recovered Ag (Silver):** 135 grams

**Objective:**
Calculate the percent yield of silver (Ag) obtained from the reaction.

**Percent Yield Calculation:**
Percent yield is calculated as follows:
\[ \text{Percent Yield} = \left( \frac{\text{Actual Yield}}{\text{Theoretical Yield}} \right) \times 100 \]

For this reaction:
- Find the theoretical yield of silver (Ag) using stoichiometry.
- Use the given actual yield (135 grams) to compute the percent yield.
