Determine the theoretical yield and the percent yield if 21.8 g of K2CO3 is produced from reacting 27.9 g KO2 with 57.0 g CO2. The molar mass of KO2

26.9 g

81%

Explanation:

The equation of the reaction is;

4 KO2(s) + 2 CO2(g) → 3 O2(g) + 2 K2CO3(s)

Number of moles of KO2= 27.9g/71.1 g/mol = 0.39 moles

4 moles of KO2 yields 2 moles of K2CO3

0.39 moles of KO2 yields 0.39 × 2/4 = 0.195 moles of K2CO3

Number of moles of CO2 = 57g/ 44.01 g/mol = 1.295 moles

2 moles of CO2 yields 2 moles of K2CO3

1.295 moles of CO2 yields 1.295 × 2/2 = 1.295 moles of K2CO3

Hence the limiting reactant is KO2

Theoretical yield = 0.195 moles of K2CO3 × 138.205 g/mol = 26.9 g

Percent yield = actual yield/theoretical yield × 100

Percent yield = 21.8/26.9 × 100

Percent yield = 81%

under a microscope, cancer cells may look very different from normal cells. they often have different sizes and some may be larger than normal while others are smaller. cancer cells are often abnormally shaped and the control centre of the cell (the nucleus) may have an abnormal appearance.
