Answer:
28%
Explanation:
Basically, all o did was write the equations, balance it and solve for them. Also, at the place I stared, I used simultaneous equation to solve it. Multiplying by 8 and also 3.
It's a pretty straightforward question.
At the final step that's missing, I Did
(y)C3H8 = 2.8 / ( 2.8 + 7.1)
(y)C3H8 = 0.28
Answer: Theoretical Yield = 0.2952 g
Percentage Yield = 75.3%
Explanation:
Calculation of limiting reactant:
n-trans-cinnamic acid moles = (142mg/1000) / 148.16 = 9.584*10⁻⁴ mol
pyridium tribromide moles = (412mg/1000) / 319.82= 1.288*10⁻³ mol
The molar ratio according to the equation mentioned is equals to 1:1
The brominated product moles is also = 9.584*10⁻⁴ mol
Theoretical yield = (9.584*10⁻⁴ mol) * (Mr of brominated product)
= (9.584*10⁻⁴ mol) * (307.97) = 0.2952 g
Percentage Yield is : Actual Yield / Theoretical Yield = 0.2223/0.2952
= 75.3%
