a chunk of zinc metal reacts with an excess of hydrochloric acid solution. what is the percentage yield if a 7.23g piece of zinc produces 2.16l of hydrogen gas at stp?
begin with a balances equation

87.02%

Explanation:

Percent yield of a product in a chemical equation is the ratio of actual or experimental yield to theoretical yield expressed as percentage.

In this case we are given;

Mass of Zinc as 7.23 g

Actual volume of Hydrogen gas produced as 2.16 L

We are required to calculate the percentage yield of Hydrogen gas;

Step 1: Write a balanced equation for the reaction

The balanced equation for the reaction between Zinc metal and Hydrochloric acid is given by;

Zn(s) + 2HCl(aq) → ZnCl₂(aq) + H₂(g)

Step 2: Moles of Zinc metal that reacted

Moles are given by dividing mass with molar mass

Moles = Mass ÷ Molar mass

Molar mass of Zinc = 65.38 g/mol

Therefore;

Number of moles = 7.23 g ÷ 65.38 g/mol

                             = 0.1106 moles

Step 3: Calculate the number of moles of Hydrogen gas produced

From the equation 1 mole of Zinc results in the formation of 1 mole of Hydrogen gas.

Therefore, Moles of hydrogen gas = Moles of Zinc × 1

                                                         = 0.1106 moles × 1

                                                         = 0.1106 moles

Step 4: Calculate the theoretical volume of Hydrogen gas produced.

At STP, 1 mole of a gas occupies 22.4 Liters

Therefore;

Volume of Hydrogen = Number of moles × 22.4 L

                                   = 0.1106 mole × 22.4 L

                                  = 2.477 L

Step 5: Calculate the percent yield

Percent yield = (Actual yield ÷ Theoretical Yield) × 100%

                      = (2.16 L ÷ 2.477 L)× 100%

                     = 87.20%

Thus, the percent yield of hydrogen gas produced is 87.02%

1. and 2. question: in which equation? or i don't understand you, 3. a), 4. c), 5. c), 6. b), 7. d), 8. d) if small number is underlined(behind symbol) , b) if big number is underlined(in front of symbol)9. what is underlined there? 10. c)

The correct answer is weight.
