Answer:
19.4 g of alum, will be its theoretical yield
Explanation:
The reaction is:
2 Al + 2 KOH + 4 H₂SO₄ + 22H₂O → 3H₂ + 2KAl(SO₄)₂•12H₂O
Let's determine the amount of acid.
M are the moles contained in 1 L of solution or it can be mmoles that are contained in 1 mL of solution
M = mmol /mL
M . mL = mmol
We replace: 8.3 mL . 9.9 M = 82.17 mmoles
We convert to moles: 82.17 mmol . 1 mol / 1000mmol = 0.082 moles
Ratio is 4:2
4 moles of sulfuric acid can make 2 moles of alum
By the way, 0.082 moles of acid may produce ( 0.082 . 2) /4 = 0.041085 moles.
We convert moles to mass:
Molar mass of alum is: 473.52 g/mol.
0.041085 moles . 473.52 g/mol = 19.4 g
Answer:
147.2g
Explanation:
The full solution can be found in the image attached. Graham's law was applied to the problem. The rate of diffusion of a gas is inversely proportional to its molar mass or vapour density. Molar mass= 2vapour density
