Answer: C. 151 g

Solution: The balanced equation given is:

LiOH+HBr\rightarrow LiBr+H_2O

From this equation, the ratio of moles between all substances is 1:1. We have 117 grams of LIOH and 141 grams of HBr available and need to calculate the theoretical yield of LiBr.

We should convert each reactant’s grams into moles to identify the limiting reagent since the theoretical yield relies on it.

Molar mass for LiOH = 6.94 + 15.999 + 1.008 = 23.947 grams per mole

Molar mass for HBr = 1.008 + 79.904 = 80.912 grams per mole

To find the moles of each reactant, we divide their grams by their respective molar masses.

Moles of LiOH = 117gLiOH(\frac{1mol}{23.947}) = 4.89 mol

Moles of HBr = 141gHBr(\frac{1mol}{80.912g}) = 1.74 mol

As there are fewer moles of HBr, it is the limiting reactant. With a 1:1 mol ratio between HBr and LiBr, 1.74 moles of LiBr can be produced.

Molar mass of LiBr = 6.94 + 79.904 = 86.844 grams per mole

The mass of LiBr formed = 1.74molLiBr(\frac{86.844g}{1mol}) = 151 g LiBr

Based on calculations, the theoretical yield of LiBr is 151 g, hence the correct answer is C.

Moving on to the second issue

Let's tackle the second question first. Once you grasp that, the first question will be simpler. By the way, this is an excellent question to clarify. The concepts of less than and more than can be quite tricky in the sciences. Every question you encounter that utilizes less or more should be approached with caution.

As altitude increases, air pressure decreases (essential term: less highlight this sentence in color. Take a moment to reflect on it.)

As the pressure declines, less energy (again, key term) is required for water molecules to escape the surface. Thus, the boiling temperature is lower than it would be at sea level.

Answer to problem two: Lower

Problem One

Water reaches its boiling point when the greatest number of molecules can leave the water's surface. Equal to is the right answer.  Although pinpointing the exact answer can be challenging, equal to is indeed the correct response.

Anarel [2989]
Hello!

According to Arrhenius, bases are defined as substances that produce OH⁻ ions when they dissolve in water. The anion NO₂⁻ fits this definition as illustrated in the following reaction:

 NO₂⁻(aq) + H₂O (l) HNO₂ (aq) + OH⁻(aq)

Given the following equation and heat of reaction: 2 moles of A combine with 2 moles of B to produce 6 moles of C and 26 kJ What
KiRa [2933]

Answer: The change in enthalpy will be -13.

Explanation:-

Endothermic reactions absorb heat, while exothermic reactions release heat. In the case of an endothermic reaction, the change in enthalpy is represented as positive, whereas for an exothermic reaction, it is negative.

\Delta H  \Delta H

2A+2B\rightarrow 6C+26kJWhen one mole of A combines with one mole of B to form three moles of C

2A+2B\rightarrow 6CSo the stoichiometric ratio being halved also results in the enthalpy for the reaction being halved.\DeltaH=-26kJ

Thus, for this reaction:

 

     

A+B\rightarrow 3C+\frac{26}{2}kJ

The resulting change in enthalpy is -13.

A+B\rightarrow 3C\DeltaH=-13kJ

If the following elements were to form ions, they would attain the same number of electrons as which noble gas? As , Be , O , S
Alekssandra [3086]

Answer;

As and Sr ------- [Kr]

Be ------------- [He]

O and Mg ------- [Ne]

S and Ca ------- [Ar]

Explanation

  • The Be+ ion has 2 electrons, matching He. The Mg2+ and O2− ions possess 10 electrons each, like Ne.
  • S2− and Ca2+ ions each have 18 electrons, the same as Ar. The As3− and Sr+ ions hold 36 electrons, paralleling Kr.
  • Elements gain or lose electrons to reach a stable electron configuration akin to that of noble gases.
  • When atoms lose electrons, they form positive ions (cations), and when they gain electrons, they form negative ions (anions).

An experiment in chm 2045 requires students to prepare a 1.0 M aqueous solution of potassium phosphate.Jennifer fills a 1.0 lite
alisha [2963]

Answer:

Joe correctly mixed the solution.

Explanation:

When evaluating both procedures, it's evident that both Jennifer and Joe weighed the same amount of potassium phosphate, which isn’t the variable here.

The difference is that Jennifer added the solid to 1.0 liters of water, resulting in a final volume greater than 1.0 L, thus her concentration will be lower than 1.0 M.

Joe's solution has a final volume of 1.0 L, which is why his preparation is accurate.
