The percent yield of CO₂ is 93.3%.
The percent yield of a substance is given as follows:
The equation of the reaction is used to determine the theoretical yield.
Moe ratio of sodium bicarbonate and CO₂ is 1 : 1.
Given that sodium bicarbonate is the limiting reactant, the theoretical yield of CO₂ will be:
Moles of NaHCO₃ reacting = 2.01/84 = 0.0239 moles
Theoretical yield of CO₂ = 0.0239 moles * 22.4L/mol = 0.536 L
Actual yield = 0.50 L
Percent yield = 0.50/0.536 * 100%
Percent yield = 93.3%
In conclusion, the percent yield is the ratio of the actual yield and theoretical yield.
Note that the complete question is given below:
Calculate your % yield of co2 in the reaction based on the grams of nahco3 being the limiting reagent in the reaction between 2.01 g of sodium bicarbonate and 24.6 mL of 1.5 M acetic acid? They produce 0.50 L of at s.t.p.
