Question
12.00 g of a potassium hydroxide, KOH solution is mixed with 40.00 g of lead (II) nitrate, Pb(NO3)2 solution. A clear solution of potassium nitrate, KNO3 and a white precipitate of lead (II) hydroxide, Pb(OH)2 are formed as products.
If the actual reaction yields only 21.5 g of solid precipitate, determine the percentage yield.

A competing reaction is the combustion of methane to form CO2. CH4(g) + O2 --> HCHO (g) + H2O (g) CH4(g) + 2 O2 --> CO2 (g) + 2 H2O (g) Air is supplied 35% excess based on the first reaction. The product gas contains 24 moles of formaldehyde and 11 moles carbon dioxide. (Hint: the product gas contains methane, formaldehyde, oxygen, nitrogen, carbon dioxide, water) Methane enters the reactor at 25C while air is preheated at 373K. The product gas leaves at 500K. Per 100 moles of methane entering the reactor, how much heat is removed from the reactor?

- I don’t understand thisarrow_forwardAluminum sulfate can be made by reacting crushed bauxite ore with sulfuric acid, according to the following equation: Al2O3 + H2SO4 = Al2(SO4)3 + H2O The bauxite ore contains 55.4% by weight of aluminium oxide, the remainder being impurities. The sulfuric acid solution contains 77.7% pure sulfuric acid, the remainder being water. To produce crude aluminium sulfate containing 1798 lb of pure aluminium sulfate, 1080 lb of bauxite ore and 2510 lb of sulfuric acid solution are needed. a) Identify the excess reactant and limiting reactant.b) What percentage of the excess reactant was consumed?c) What was the degree of completion of the reaction?d) Illustrate the Law of Conservation of Mass.arrow_forwardAlumina from bauxite separation stage calculations A crucial step in the production of aluminum from bauxite ore is the separation of alumina from the remaining mineral impurities in the ore. In the Bayer process this is accomplished by treating bauxite with aqueous NaOH to produce NaAIO2 (alumina). NaOH(aq) + Al(OH)3(s) → NaAIO2(aq) + 2H2O(1) Since NaAIO2 is water soluble while the residual mineral constituents of bauxite are not, a separation can be achieved by allowing the minerals to settle out and decanting the aqueous solution of NAAIO2 and unreacted NaOH. In order to further recover any NAAIO2 entrained in the settled mineral solids, this "mud" is repeatedly washed with water and allowed to settle, and the wash water is decanted. The figure below shows one stage of this washing-settling process. Wash water Slurry - Open to air Mixer/Wash tank Setling tank Decanted solution System boundary Washed mud In this stage, a feed slurry consisting of 10 wt% solids, 11 wt% NaOH, 16 wt%…arrow_forward
