(40 points) complete, balance, compute the amounts of the products assuming 100% yield. 12g zinc solid + 24g silver nitrate

Zn + 2AgNO₃ → Zn(NO₃)₂ +2Ag

13.34g Zn(NO₃)₃ and 15.24g Ag are formed if reaction is 100% complete.

Explanation:

molar mass of Zn=65 g

molar mass of AgNO₃=170 g

molar mass of Zn(NO₃)₂ =189  g

molar mass of Silver = 108 g

Zn + 2  AgNO₃ → Zn(NO₃)₂ +2 Ag            eq(1)

1 mole Zn  reacts with 2 moles Silver nitrate to give 1 mole Zinc nitrate and 2 moles Silver

or

65 g Zn reacts with 2×170 g of AgNO₃  → 189 g Zn(NO₃)₂ and 2×108 g Ag    - eq(2)

First find limiting reagent of the reaction

65g Zn reacts with 2×170g of AgNO₃

12 g Zn reacts with (12÷65)×2×170 g AgNO₃

=62.7 g AgNO₃

For the reaction to go to 100% yield 12 g Zn will need 62.7 g AgNO₃

but amount of AgNO₃ is 24 g

So the reaction yields is limited by amount of AgNO₃.

AgNO₃ is the limiting reagent.

So calculate the yield of products with the amount of AgNO₃

by eq(2)

2× 170 gAgNO₃ gives 189 g Zn(NO₃)₃

=340 g AgNO₃ gives 189 g Zn(NO₃)₃

24 g AgNO₃ gives (24÷340) ×189 g Zn(NO₃)₃

=13.34g Zn(NO₃)₃

again by eq2

2×170 g AgNO₃ gives 2×108 g Ag

= 340 g AgNO₃ gives 216 g Ag

24 g AgNO₃ gives (24÷340)×216 g Ag

= 15.24g Ag

it can be observed without changing the identity of the object.

it depends on what substance you're talking about as well as many other factors. in quantum mechanics, the observation of particles affects the observers ability to measure certain properties. for example: you can know the velocity of a particle, but you can't know it's position; or you can know it's position, but not it's velocity. it's like trying to find out where a grain of sand is by throwing other grains of sand at it. once you find out where it is, it's been moved. it's also like trying to find an answer to the question of whether or not a tree falling in a forest makes a sound if nobody is there to hear it. paradoxically, the only way to find out is to be there and hear it.
