Diethyl ether is produced from ethanol according to the following equation: 2ch3ch2oh(l) → ch3ch2och2ch3(l) + h2o(l) calculate the percent yield if 65.2 g of ethanol reacts to produce 17.2 g of ether.

Answer : The percent yield is, 32.79 %

Explanation :  

First we have to calculate the moles of .

Now we have to calculate the moles of

The balanced chemical reaction will be,

From the balanced reaction, we conclude that

As, 2 moles of react to give 1 mole of

So, 1.415 moles of react to give mole of

Now we have to calculate the mass of

The theoretical yield of ether,  = 52.44 g

Now we have to calculate the percent yield of

Therefore, the percent yield is, 32.79 %

precipitation

explanation:

when it goes from cloud to rain/back to earth in the form of rain
