We are provided with
4.35 g of phosphoric acid
5.25 g of KOH
3.15 g of K3PO4 produced

The reaction formula is
H3PO4 + 3KOH => K3PO4 + 3H2O

Initially, convert the given masses into moles.
Then, identify the limiting reactant. Afterward, calculate the maximum K3PO4 that can be generated from the limiting reactant.
Finally, compute the percent yield by dividing the actual yield by the theoretical yield.

If 32.0 g of MgSO4⋅7H2O is thoroughly heated, what mass of anhydrous magnesium sulfate will remain?
alisha [2963]
To calculate the moles of MgSO4.7H2O, we find the molar mass equals 246, thus moles = 32 / 246 = 0.13 moles. Upon heating, all 7 H2O from one molecule will evaporate. The total moles of H2O present amount to 7 x 0.13 = 0.91, and the mass of that H2O is 0.91 x 18 = 16.38g. Therefore, the mass of the anhydrous MgSO4 that remains is 32 - 16.38 = 15.62 g.

32.7 grams of water vapor takes up how many liters at standard temperature and pressure (273 K and 100 kPa)?
alisha [2963]
At standard temperature and pressure, it is established that 1 mole of gas has a volume of 22.4 liters.

According to the periodic table:
the molar mass of oxygen is 16 g
and the molar mass of hydrogen is 1 g
Hence, the molar mass of water vapor is calculated as 2(1) + 16 = 18 g

Thus, 18 g of water occupies 22.4 liters, therefore:
the volume for 32.7 g is (32.7 x 22.4) / 18 = 40.6933 liters

The value of delta G at 141.0 degrees celsius for the formation of phosphorous trichloride from its constituent elements,
VMariaS [2998]
The appropriate answer is option E. Gibbs free energy can be expressed using the equation: ΔG = ΔH - TΔS, where ΔH denotes the change in enthalpy of the reaction, T is the reaction temperature, and ΔS signifies entropy change. For our calculations, we have ΔH = -720.5 kJ/mol which converts to -720500 J/mol (given that 1 kJ = 1000 J), ΔS = -263.7 J/K, and T = 141.0°C, which equals 414.15 K. Consequently, the Gibbs free energy for the specified reaction at 141.0°C is calculated as -611.3 kJ/mol.

Find the age t of a sample, if the total mass of carbon in the sample is mc, the activity of the sample is a, the current ratio
Alekssandra [3086]
N₀ signifies the quantity of C-14 atoms per kg of carbon in the original sample at time = 0 seconds, when the carbon composition matched that in today’s atmosphere. As time progresses to ts, the number of C-14 atoms per kg declines to N, due to radioactive decay. λ indicates the decay constant.
Hence, we have N = N₀e - λt, which is the equation for radioactive decay. Rearranging gives us N₀/N = e λt, or In(N₀/N) = - λt, which becomes equation 1.
The sample contains mc kg of carbon, leading to an activity measured as A/mc decay per kg. The variable r represents the initial mass of C-14 in the sample at t=0 relative to the total mass of carbon which is calculated as [(total number of C-14 atoms at t = 0) × ma] / total mass of carbon. Thus, N₀ equates to r/ma, which becomes equation 2.
The activity of the radioactive element is directly related to the atom count at the moment. The activity equation A = dN/dt = λ(N) indicates that: A = λ₁(N × mc). Rearranging provides N = A / (λmc), represented in equation 3.
By integrating equations 2 and 3, we can solve for t yielding
t = (1/λ) In(rλmc/m₀A).

which intensive physical property is observed when droppings of a person seated inside a closed room has able to reach a person
lions [2927]

Answer:

The correct answer is "Speed".

Explanation:

  • An intensive or individualized physical property is identified when "speed" is observed as the excretion of an individual in a confined area, capable of reaching someone one meter away after sneezing or coughing.
  • This measure is represented in the unit of "meter per second", indicating its intensive nature.
