Concept explainers
(a)
Interpretation : The theoretical yield of oxygen gas should be calculated.
Concept Introduction : The actual yield of the product is the amount of product which is formed at the end of reaction experimentally whereas theoretical yield represents the amount of product calculated by expecting that 100 % of reactant changes to product. The percent yield can be shown as:

- (2 pts) Estradiol is a potent female hormone. In 1934, Edward A. Doisy of Washington University extracted 3000 lb of hog ovaries to isolate a few milligrams of pure estradiol. Doisy burned 5.00 mg of this precious sample in oxygen and found that 14.54 mg of CO2 and 3.97 mg of H20 were generated. 3. (a) Determine the empirical formula of estradiol. (b) The molecular weight of estradiol was later determined to be 272. Determine the molecular formula of estradiol.arrow_forwardKk24.arrow_forward6 8 and 9arrow_forward
- (References] Nitrobenzene, C6 H5 NO2, an important raw material for the dye industry, is prepared from benzene, C6 H6 (molar weight 78.1 g/mol), and nitric acid, HNO3 according to the following chemical equation: C6 H6 (1) + HNO3 (1) → C,H5NO2 (1) + H2 O(1) a. When 22.8 g of benzene and an excess of nitric acid are used, what is the theoretical yield of nitrobenzene (molar weight 123.1 g/mol)? Theoretical yield = b. If 32.3 g of nitrobenzene is recovered, what is the percentage yield? Percentage yield = %arrow_forwardhelp with both of the same equationsarrow_forwardConsider the reaction between NiS2NiS2 and O2O2:2NiS2(s)+5O2(g)→2NiO(s)+4SO2(g)2NiS2(s)+5O2(g)→2NiO(s)+4SO2(g) When 11.2 gg of NiS2NiS2 are allowed to react with 5.43 gg of O2O2, 4.06 gg of NiONiO are obtained. A) Determine the limiting reactant for the reaction. Express your answer as a chemical formula B)Determine the theoretical yield of NiONiO for the reaction. C)Determine the percent yield for the reaction.arrow_forward
