On a trip to the natural history museum you find two minerals that are similar in color. You can see from their chemical formula

s that one mineral contains the elements zinc, carbon, and oxygen. The other mineral contains the elements zinc, silicon, oxygen, and hydrogen. Your friend tells you that the minerals are in the same mineral group. Do you agree? Explain your reasoning.

The percent composition by mass of nitrogen in NH4OH(gram formula mass= 35 grams/mole) is equal to which of the following? A.4/3
Tems11 [2777]
Hello! The mass percent composition of nitrogen in NH₄OH is 14/35×100. To find the percent composition by mass of an element within a chemical compound, divide the atomic mass of that element (AM), which is 14 for Nitrogen, by the entire compound's molar mass (MM) and multiply that by 100. The formula for determining percent composition is as follows: Have a nice day!

Determine the percent yield for the reaction
Alekssandra [3086]

Answer:

The percent yield of Br₂ in this reaction amounts to 96.15%

Explanation:

The reaction's balanced stoichiometric equation is:

2 NaBr + 1 Cl₂ → 2 NaCl + 1 Br₂

To calculate the percent yield:

Percent yield = 100% × (Actual yield)/(Theoretical yield)

To determine the theoretical yield:

5.29 g of NaBr reacts with an excess of chlorine; therefore, NaBr is the limiting reagent, controlling the possible yield of products.

We convert 5.29 g of NaBr to moles.

Number of moles = (Mass)/(Molar mass)

Molar Mass of NaBr = 102.894 g/mol

Number of moles = (5.29/102.894) = 0.0514121329 = 0.05141 mole

According to the stoichiometry of the reaction:

2 moles of NaBr yield 1 mole of Br₂

Thus, 0.05141 mole of NaBr will produce (0.05141×1/2) mole of Br₂, which is 0.0257 mole of Br₂

Theoretical yield = Expected mass of Br₂ from the reaction

= (Number of moles) × (Molar mass)

Molar mass of Br₂ = 159.808 g/mol

Theoretical yield of Br₂ = 0.0257 × 159.808 = 4.108 g

Calculating the percent yield:

Percent yield = 100% × (Actual yield)/(Theoretical yield)

Actual yield = 3.95 g

Theoretical yield = 4.108 g

Percent yield = 100% × (3.95/4.108) = 96.15%

Hope this is helpful!!!

Give an example of a rule of the natural world that a scientist can assume is always true.
Alekssandra [3086]
Laws of Nature should be differentiated from Scientific and Natural Laws. The Necessitarian Theory suggests that Laws of Nature are those principles which influence the natural phenomena in the universe, meaning the natural world adheres to them.
