Question

determine the percent yield for the reaction. assume a constant temp and vol. and that no other reactions occur other than the one indicated. Co(g) + 2H2(g) -> CH3OH(g) initially contains 108 torr of CO and 292 torr of H2. the reaction is allowed to proceed until the pressure stops changing, at which point the total pressure is 219 torr.

Answer 1

What's torr a unit of?

Answer 2

atmosphere...?

Answer 3

That's pressure right? P?

Answer 4

What's that formula we use here? nPRVT=nPRVT or something?

Answer 5

PV=NRT yes?

Answer 6

i think that applies here right

Answer 7

And percent yield applies to N(moles) right?

Answer 8

you find moles to get the percent yield am i correct?

Answer 9

that's what i thought.

Answer 10

constant temp and volume is STP right?

Answer 11

are those conversions correct?

Answer 12

i honestly wouldn't know.

Answer 13

Answer 14

:)

Answer 15

Well, if anyone else comes, I have no idea how to solve this at this point. Tired....
