Answer:
5.42g, 71.77%
Explanation:
First, we have to write out the balanced chemical equation. The unbalanced equation can be written as “SO2+O2 -> SO3” and to balance it, we can see that having two mols of SO2 and two mols of SO3 will make each side have the same amount of mols per element on each side. So the balanced chemical equation is “2SO2 + O2 -> 2SO3”
Now, we want to solve for the theoretical yield in grams of SO3. To do this, we have to use dimensional analysis. We convert g SO2 into mols SO2 using the molar mass of the elements. Then we convert mols of SO2 into mols of SO3 using the balanced equation. Once we’ve done that, we can convert mols of SO3 into grams of SO3.
You should know how to look up the molar mass of elements on the periodic table by now. Find the masses and set up the terms so they cancel like so:
Doing the math, we get 5.42g so3 as the theoretical yield. This is the most amount that you could ever get if the world was a perfect place. But alas, it isn’t and mistakes are gonna happen, so the number is going to be less than that. So the best we can do, is to figure out the percent yield that we got.
In a lab scenario, this was calculated to be 3.89 g as stated by the problem. The percent composition formula is
and plugging the numbers into it, we get:
make sure to follow the decimal/significant figure rules of your instructor, but only round at the end. My professor didn't care too much thankfully, but some professors do
Explanation:
The reaction is CaCO

.
Thus, 2 moles of HCl reacts with one mole of calcium carbonate to produce one mole each of calcium chloride, water and carbon dioxide respectively.
Hence, 3 moles of HCl will react with excess of calcium carbonate to produce 3×

=1.5 mol of carbon dioxide
In the equation given above, there is conservation of MASS, CHARGE AND ENERGY.
These three parameters are usually conserved during the course of chemical reactions. When any of these parameter experience a reduction during the course of chemical reaction, such loss is always gained by other elements involved in the same reaction, so that at the end of the day, they are not considered as lost.

Hello there!
In this case, according to the given information, it turns out possible for us to calculate the required new volume by using the Charles' law as a directly proportional relationship between temperature and volume:
In such a way, we solve for V2 and plug in V1, T1 and T2 to obtain:
