In one experiment, 12.0 g of PCl5 was slowly added to 15.0 g of H2O according to the following balanced chemical equation:
Pcl5(s)+4H2O(l) ---> H3PO4 (aq) + 5HCl (g)
The molar masses for each compounds in the equation are as follows;
PCl5: 208.224 g/mol
H2O: 18.015 g/mol
H3PO4: 97.994 g/mol
HCl; 36.45 g/mol

- The fizz produced when an Alka-Seltzer tablet is dissolvedin water is due to the reaction between sodium bicarbonate(NaHCO3) and citric acid (H3C6H5O72)3 NaHCO3(aq) + H3C6H5O7(aq)-------->3 CO2(g) + 3H2O(l) + Na3C6H5O7(aq) In a certain experiment 1.00 g of sodium bicarbonate and1.00 g of citric acid are allowed to react. The actual yield of CO2 was 0.436 g. a.) What is the theoretical yield of CO2? b.) What is the % yield?arrow_forwardIf 50.0 g of water is combined with 155.3 g of PCl3, PCl3(l) + 3H2O (l) --> H3PO4 (aq) + 3HCl (aq) what is the limiting reagent?arrow_forwardBalance the following reaction. If a reactant or product is not present, put a zero (0) in the blank. H+(aq) + H2O(l) + ClO-13(aq) + e-1 <--> Cl-1(g) + H+(aq) + H2O(l)arrow_forward
- 2+ Natural waters often contain relatively high levels of calcium ion, Ca²+, and hydrogen carbonate ion (bicarbonate), HCO3¯, from the leaching of minerals into the water. When such water is used commercially or in the home, heating of the water leads to the formation of solid calcium carbonate, CaCO3, which forms a deposit ("scale") on the interior of boilers, pipes, and other plumbing fixtures. Ca(HCO3)2 (aq) → CaCO3 (s) + CO2(g) + H₂O(1) If a sample of well water contains 0.0016 mg of Ca(HCO3)2 per milliliter, what mass of CaCO3 scale would 1.0 mL of this water be capable of depositing? Mass= garrow_forwardArsine, AsH3, was once a product of a test used in forensic analysis. Tissues from a possible poisoning victim were treated with zinc and sulfuric acid. If arsenic was present (usually as diarsenic trioxide, As203), arsine would form: As₂03 (s) + 6 Zn(s) + 6 H₂SO4(aq) ----> 2 AsH3(g) + 6 ZnSO4(aq) + 3 H₂O(1) a) In a lab exercise, a forensic technician reacts 19.8 g of AS₂O3 with 32.7 g of Zinc in the presence of excess sulfuric acid. What mass of AsH3 will be produced? b) Use the same chemical reaction, create a question which needs to be solved by percentage yield.arrow_forward???arrow_forward
