Answer:
Limiting reagent is the potassium carbonate.
Percent yield of calcium carbonate is: 39.3 %
Explanation:
The reaction is:
CaCl₂ + K₂CO₃ → CaCO₃ + 2KCl
Formula for percent yield is:
(Produced yield / Thoeretical yield) . 100
Firstly we determine the moles of each reactant, in order to say what is the limiting reagent: ratio is 1:1.
1 mol of chloride need 1 mol of carbonate.
14.570 g . 1 mol /110.98 g = 0.131 moles of CaCl₂
12.285 g . 1 mol / 138.2g = 0.0889 moles of carbonate.
Limiting reagent is carbonate. For 0.131 moles of CaCl₂ we need the same amount of carbonate and we have less moles.
Ratio is also 1:1, with calcium carbonate.
1 mol of potassium carbonate produces 1 mol of calcium carbonate
then, 0.0889 moles will produce the same amount of CaCO₃
We convert moles to mass: 0.0889 mol . 100.08g /mol = 8.89 g
That's the theoretical yield; to find the percent yield:
(3.494 g / 8.89g) . 100 = 39.3%
What is the observation of heating of iodine crystals
Answer:
On heating, the van der Waals dispersion forces existing then will easily break as it has a low boiling point and sublimates into gas. On heating iodine in the test tube, iodine evolves as violet fuming gas.
