2.3 grams of sodium reacts with water and 0.080 grams of hydrogen has been collected what are the theoretical and percent yields of hydrogen gas?

Theoretical yield = 0.1 g

Percent yield = 80%

Explanation:

Given data:

Mass of sodium = 2.3 g

Actual yield of hydrogen = 0.080 g

Theoretical yield = ?

Percent yield = ?

Solution:

Chemical equation:

2Na + 2H₂O    →  H₂ + 2NaOH

Number of moles of sodium:

Number of moles = mass/ molar mass

Number of moles = 2.3 g/ 23 g/mol

Number of moles = 0.1 mol

Now we will compare the moles of sodium with hydrogen to calculate the theoretical yield.

                       Na               :              H₂

                        2                :               1

                     0.1                 :             1/2×0.1 = 0.05 mol

Mass of hydrogen produced:

Mass = number of moles × molar mass

Mass = 0.05 mol × 2 g/mol

Mass = 0.1 g

Percent yield of hydrogen:

Percent yield = actual yield / theoretical yield ×100

Percent yield = 0.08 g/ 0.1 g×100

Percent yield = 0.8×100

Percent yield = 80%

answer

fusion: the energy source of stars. the energy released from the collapse of the gas into a protostar causes the center of the protostar to become extremely hot. when the core is hot enough, nuclear fusion commences. fusion is the process where two hydrogen atoms combine to form a helium atom, releasing energy.

hope it

the answer is a and have a great day
