Which statement correctly describes the relationship between reactant and yield? The actual yield is calculated from the amount of the excess reactant present.The actual yield is calculated from the amount of the limiting reactant present.

The theoretical yield is calculated from the amount of the excess reactant present.

The theoretical yield is calculated from the amount of the limiting reactant present.

Answers

Answer 1
Answer:

Answer: the fourth stament, The theoretical yield is calculated from the amount of the limiting reactant present.


Justification:


1) Limiting reactant is the one that is in less proportion than the theoretical mole ratio.


2) Excess reactant is the one that is in greater proportion than the theoretical ratio.


3) For example, if you have the equation A + 2B → C, means that 1 mol of A react with 2 moles of B to yield 1 mol of C.


As per that equation, the theoretical mole ratio is 1 mol of A : 2 moles of B : 1 moles of C.


If the actual amounts of A and B were 2 and 4, respectively, they were in the same ratio as the theoretical ratio, and all of the both reactants could react.


But if you had, for example, 2 moles of reactant A and 2 moles of reactant B, only one of the moles of A could react with the 2 moles of B, so B would be the limiting reactant: the whole 2 moles of B would react, while only 1 mole of A would reactant, and 1 mole of A would be left over (A is in excess).


Therefore, you cannot use the 2 moles of A to calculate the theoretical yield (since only 1 mole reacted), instead you must use the limiting reactant (B), which is the one that reacts completely.

Okay! So if 50g of Lithium Bromide is mixed with 100g of water at 20 degrees Celsius a solution forms. If the water was heated to 70 degrees Celsius would the solution form faster, slower, or at the same rate and why?

Answers

Answer:

The lithium bromide salt is a neutral salt that when reacted with water, it can dissolve and form a supersaturated, balanced or slightly saturated solution.

If we increase the temperature of said reaction, we promote the dissociation of the molecules, thus helping to dissolve, in this way the solution would form much faster than at 60 degrees Celsius.

Explanation:

As this chemical compound is a neutral salt, we mean that its pH is neutral.

Binary salts are combinations of 2 elements other than hydrogen and oxygen. The union of a metallic element with a non-metallic element forms a neutral salt, while the union of a non-metallic element with another non-metallic element forms a volatile salt.

The types of neutral salts that exist are: fluorides, chlorides, bromides, iodides, astatides, sulfides, tellurides, selenides, nitrides, phosphides, arsenides, antimonides, borides, carbides and silicides.

If a solution is made by mixing 50.0 moles of KOH to 3.4 kilograms of water then what is the solutions molality?

Answers

The molality of a solution is calculated by taking the moles of solute and dividing by the kilograms of solvent.

Elements are composed ofA) many type of atoms.

B) the same type of atom.

C) many different compounds.

D) the same type of compound.

Answers

The correct answer is B, 'the same type of atom'. By definition, an element is a single type of atom. They are the most basic forms of matter, and so they cannot be more than one kind of atom, and they also cannot be a compound, since compounds are made up of multiple atoms.
