Citric acid, c6h8o7, a component of jams, jells and fruity soft drinks, is prepared industrially via a fermentation of sucrose by the moid aspergillus niger. the equation representing this raction id :
c12h22o11 + h2o + 3o2 ? 2c6h8o7 +h2o
what mass of nitric acid is produced from exactly 1 metric on(1000 x 103 kg) of sucrose if the yield is 92.30%?

1.04 tonnes

Explanation:

As we have the equation balanced, we need to know, form the percent yield and the theoretical yield, the actual yield:

With this, we need to convert the mass of sucrose into moles:

Now, with the yield, we apply the rule of three, with the actual yield, to know the moles of citric acid produced:

Therefore, 5392.93 moles of citric acid are produced, now we need to know the mass:

- aluminum and copper chloride.

- the chloride ion to separate the aluminum from the oxygen so that the aluminum can react with the copper ions (and the water molecules).

c is having 4 valence electrons and is bonded to three hydrogens and one sulphur atom, therefore, the number of bond pair is equal to four. as all the valence electrons are used in forming the bonds so, there is no lone pair left on carbon.

s is having 6 valence electrons and is bonded to one other sulfur atom and one carbon atom, therefore, the number of bond pair is equal to 2. as only two valence electrons are used in forming the bonds so, four electrons are left. therefore, two lone pairs are present on s.
