A chemical process used to produce ethanol as a fuel additive was expected to produce 5,000 kilograms of ethanol based on the amounts of starting materials used, but only 4,760 kilograms were produced. What was the percent yield for ethanol in this process? A)1.09 percent B)4.80 percent C)95.2 percent D)105 percent

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

The percent yield for ethanol in this process is 95.2%

Explanation:

Yield is the ratio between the amount of product actually obtained in the reaction and the maximum amount of product that could have been obtained if the reagents had been completely consumed.

The theoretical yield is the yield is the maximum you can get in a reaction.

On the other hand, the actual performance shows what you really get in experimentation. It is generally less than the theoretical yield.

So, the percentage return is the actual return times the theoretical return multiplied by 100.

So, in this case the percentage yield will be calculated as:

[tex]percent yield=\frac{4,760 kg}{5,000 kg} *100[/tex]

percent yield=  95.2%

The percent yield for ethanol in this process is 95.2%

What volume (in L) of water vapor will be

produced from the reaction of 4.95 L of ethane

(C2He)?

2C2H6(g) + 702(9) — 4CO2(g) + 6H2O(g)

Answers

Answer:

14.85L of water are produced

Explanation:

Based on Avigadro's law, the volume is directly proportional to the moles of a gas.

Based on the equation:

2C₂H₆(g) + 7O₂(g) → 4CO₂(g) + 6H₂O(g)

2 moles of ethane produce 6 moles of H₂O.

Using Avogadro's law: 2L of ethane produce 6L of H₂O.

The addition of 4.95L of ethane are:

4.95L ethane * (6L H₂O / 2L C₂H₆) =

14.85L of water are produced

What volume of 9.0 M copper (II) sulfate stock solution is needed to prepare 3.0 L of a 5.0 M
solution?

Answers

Answer:

1. 35g NaCl.

2. 234g sugar.

3. 0.506L of concentrated nitric acid are needed.

4. 1.67L of 9.0M copper (II) sulfate are needed

Explanation:

Molarity is defined as the ratio between moles of solute and the volume of the solution.

1. 1.00L * (0.60mol / L) = 0.60 moles NaCl are dissolved

To convert moles to mass we must use its molar mass:

0.60mol NaCl * (58.44g/mol) =

35g NaCl

2. 2L * (0.342mol / L) = 0.684 moles Sugar = moles sucrose

0.684 mol * (342.30g / mol) = 234g sugar

3. 4L of a 2.0M are:

4L * (2.0mol/L) = 8moles

8mol * (1L / 15.8mol) = 0.506L of concentrated nitric acid are needed

4. 3.0L  * (5.0 mol / L) = 15.0 moles copper (II) sulfate.

15.0mol * (1L / 9.0mol) = 1.67L of 9.0M copper (II) sulfate are needed

b) [tex]C_2H_5OH\stackrel{conc H_2SO_4, 170^0C}\rightarrow C_2H_4+H_2O[/tex]

c) dehydrating agent

Explanation:

Ethanol is heated with an excess of concentrated sulfuric acid at a temperature of 170°C to produce ethene.

The balanced chemical reaction is:

[tex]C_2H_5OH\stackrel{conc H_2SO_4, 170^0C}\rightarrow C_2H_4+H_2O[/tex]

Here concentrated sulfuric acid removes a water molecule from ethanol and thus acts as a dehydrating agent.

How does an increase in temperature affect the equilibrium concentration of the underlined substance and K for each of the following reactions?


(c) SO2(g) S(s) + O2(g) DH° = 297 kJ

Answers

Explanation:

Due to the positive value of the change in temperature, this is an endothermic reaction.

Since the forward reaction is endothermic, increasing the temperature increases the equilibrium constant (k).

In an equilibrium system, the position of the equilibrium will move in a way to annul the change made to the system. An increase in temperature for an endothermic reaction would favour the reaction, leading to increase in amount of products and decrease in amount of reactants.

The products in the reaction HCI + NaOH → NaCl + H20, are C. NaCl and H20.

How are these the products ?

The reaction between hydrochloric acid (HCl) and sodium hydroxide (NaOH) is a neutralization reaction, which means that it produces a salt and water. In this case, the salt is sodium chloride (NaCl) and the water is H2O.

The other options are not correct because they do not include all of the products of the reaction. Option (A) includes HCl and NaOH, but it does not include H2O. Option (B) only includes HCl and NaOH. Option (D) only includes NaOH and H2O.

Answer the question using the equation: HCl(aq)+H2O(l)→H+(aq)+Cl-(aq)+H2O(l)→H3O+(aq)+Cl-(aq) Which product is a Lewis base?

Answers

Answer:

Cl-

Explanation:

The equation of the reaction is;

H+(aq)+Cl-(aq)+H2O(l)→H3O+(aq)+Cl-(aq)

Lewis base refers to substances that can donate a lone pair of electrons(e.g OH^-, Cl^- etc) or a pair of nonbonding electrons.(eg NH3, H20 etc). A Lewis base is therefore an electron-pair donor. They are easily recognized because they often have lone pairs or are negatively charged species.

If we look at the products, Cl- is a Lewis base because it is a lone pair donor. We see this more clearly because the specie is negatively charged.

Cl

how many moles are in 6.31x10^24 C atoms

Answers

Answer:

Explanation:

1 mol of any chemical is 6.02 * 10^23

x mol of any chemical is 6.31 * 10^24

You should look at this before you put it in  your calculator. You should think roughly 10.

Now you can set it up as a proportion

1/x = 6.02 * 10^23/6.31 * 10^24        Cross multiply

6.02 * 10^23 x = 1 * 6.31 * 10^24      Divide by 6.02 * 10^23

x = 6.31 * 10^24 / 6.02 * 10^23

x = 10.48 mols.

It should be 10.48 mols

Answers

Answer:

Explanation:

First Step - Iron Fillings

Use a magnet to separate the iron fillings from the mixture. Due to magnetic properties of the iron fillings, the magnets would attract the iron fillings and separate it from the mixture.

Second step - Sand

Place the sand and sugar mixture in water. The sugar would dissolve in water and the sand easily separated by filtration.

Third step - Sugar and Sugar water

Boil the sugar water to remove the water and place in the refrigerator for crystallization of the sugar.

Wine goes bad soon after opening because the ethanol ch3ch2oh in it reacts with oxygen gas o2 from the air to form water h2o and acetic acid ch3cooh , the main ingredient of vinegar. Calculate the moles of ethanol needed to produce 0.055mol of acetic acid. Be sure your answer has a unit symbol, if necessary, and round it to the correct number of significant digits.

Answers

Answer:

For producing 0.55 mole of acetic acid, 0.55 mole of ethanol is required.

Explanation:

The balanced equation for this reaction is

CH3CH2OH + O2 --> CH3COOH + H2O

As we can see in this equation, the ration of number of moles of acetic acid to the number of moles of ethanal is equal to [tex]1 : 1[/tex]

Hence, in order to produce one mole of acetic acid, 1 mole of ethanol is required.

Thus, for producing 0.55 mole of acetic acid, 0.55 mole of ethanol is required.

0
24

Answers

Answer:

24

Explanation:

In an uncharged atom, the number of protons is always equal to the number of electrons. For example, carbon atoms include six protons and six electrons, so carbon's atomic number is 6.

Similarly, since an atom of chromium contains 24 protons, it also contains the same amount of electrons, which is 24.
