Percentage yield of sodium peroxide if 5 g of sodium oxide produces 5.5 g of sodium peroxide

87.40 %

Concept being tested: Percent yield of a product

We are given;

Mass of Sodium oxide 5 g

Experimental or Actual yield of sodium peroxide IS 5.5 g

We are required to calculate the percent yield of sodium peroxide;

The equation for the reaction that forms sodium peroxide is

2Na₂O + O₂ → 2Na₂O₂

Moles = mass ÷ molar mass

Molar mass of sodium oxide is 61.98 g/mol

Therefore;

Moles = 5 g ÷ 61.98 g/mol

          = 0.0807 moles

From the equation, 2 moles of sodium oxide produces 1 mole of sodium peroxide.

Thus, moles of sodium peroxide used is 0.0807 moles

Mass = Number of moles × Molar mass

Molar mass of sodium peroxide = 77.98 g/mol

Therefore;

Theoretical mass = 0.0807 moles × 77.98 g/mol

                            = 6.293 g

Theoretical mass of Na₂O₂ is 6.293 g

                       = 87.40 %

Therefore, the percentage yield of sodium peroxide is 87.4%

because u need two or more forms of the same element that contain equal numbers of protons but different numbers of neutrons in their nuclei to form isotopes.

so since they all have the same shape? i mean maybe because m& m and reeses are both chocolates
