Answer:
Theoretical yield of C6H10 = 3.2 g.
Explanation:
Defining Theoretical yield as the quantity of product obtained from the complete conversion of the limiting reactant in a chemical reaction. It can be expressed as grams or moles.
Equation of the reaction
C6H11OH --> C6H10 + H2O
Moles of C6H11OH:
Molar mass of C6H110H = (12*6) + (1*12) + 16
= 100 g/mol
Mass of C6H10 = 3.8 g
number of moles = mass/molar mass
=3.8/100
= 0.038 mol.
Using stoichoimetry, 1 moles of C6H110H was dehydrated to form 1 mole of C6H10 and 1 mole of water.
Therefore, 0.038 moles of C6H10 was produced.
Mass of C6H10 = molar mass * number of moles
Molar mass of C6H10 = (12*6) + (1*10)
= 82 g/mol.
Mass = 82 * 0.038
= 3.116 g of C6H10.
Theoretical yield of C6H10 = 3.2 g
Answer:
15.89grams
Explanation:
The mass of a substance can be calculated from it's mole value by using the formula:
mole = mass/molar mass
According to this question, there are 0.250 moles of copper. Hence, the mass of copper can be calculated as follows:
Molar mass of Cu = 63.55g/mol
0.250 = mass/63.55
mass = 0.250 × 63.55
mass = 15.8875
Mass of Cu in 0.250mol is 15.89grams.
