For the following reaction, 6.98 grams of silver nitrate are mixed with excess sodium chloride. The reaction yields 5.48 grams of silver chloride. NaCl (aq) + AgNO3 (aq) = AgCl (s) + NaNO3 (aq) (1) What is the theoretical yield of silver chloride ? grams (2) What is the percent yield for this reaction ? %
the actual yield is 5.48
okay attempt a solution showing me all the work
yes 5.48 correct
okay now what is the theoritical yield
I get trouble on this part
dont guess look at the equation what is infront of NaCl 1 or 2
can you show me step by step with me
1
oh yes we ve started
good you saw 1 so that is it
what of Ag N03
1
excellent
you ve been given 6.98 grams of AgNO3 from the question right
yes
the trick is to find the theoritical value of AgCl you must find the moles of AgNO3
do you know how to find the moles of AgNO3
do IOOK AT THE PERIDIC TABLE
108 IS THE ATOMIC NUMBER FOR Ag (silver)
to find the moles of AgNO3 you need the molar mass and you can get them from the periodic table MM OF N=14 MM OF O = 16 MM OF AG=197 NB :YOU ARE NOT LOOKING FOR ATOMIC NUMBER
ok
NOW YOU NEED TO FIND THE MOLAR MASS OF AGNO3 MM OF AGNO3=197+14+16(3)= NB:SINCE THERE ARE 3 OXYGEN IN THE FORMULA YOU MULTIPLY 16 BY 3
GIVE ME THE VALUE PLEASE
259
wonderful now find the MOLES of AGNO3 MOLES = MASS/MOLAR MASS CAN YOU PLEASE FIT IN THE VALUES AND GIVE ME YOUR EQUATION
6.98/259
.0269
WONDERFUL THAT IS THE MOLES OF AGNO3
sorry the website shut down yesterday we ll continue some other time
