Percent Yield & Percent Purity

A: Percent Yield
-A percent yield in chemical equations is used because chemical reactions generally                        
  do not produce the predicted amount of a substance predicted by chemists. 
  The percent yield is generally determined by the masses that are used in a chemical reaction as  
   well as by determining the mole ratio

>Ratio of amount of product obtained to amount of product expected by calculation, expressed as %
                                            ________________________________
                           %Yield  = |grams of actual product recovered            |   X   100%
                                            |grams of product expected from stoichi    |
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Example: If you burn 12 grams of carbon to make CO2, then amount of carbon dioxide expected is one mol of CO2 or 44 grams of CO2Sadly the amount you will get will probably be less than 44 grams and more like 34 grams of CO2. The problem is a competing reaction that happens. Some carbon reacts to make CO.
2 C(s) + O2(g) --- > 2 CO(g)
The carbon participating in this "side" reaction will not be able to make CO2. The reaction will not yield 100% of the expected CO2.
The amount of carbon dioxide produced, 34 grams of CO2 is only 77% and not 100 % of the expected 44 grams.

B: Percent Purity
-Calculate how much reactant that actually is available to react        


                           %Purity  = Mass of Pure Substance    =x 100%
                                            Mass of Impure sample

Excess and Limiting

A: Excess Quantity
   -A balanced equation describes what should happen in a chemical reaction
    Sometimes necessary to add more of one reactant than the equation
   
    -One reactant is the Excess quantity and some of it will be left over,the second   of reactant is used up to -----limiting Quantity
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Example:
How many grams of OCl2 will be formed when 44.0g of O2 react with 97.0g of Fl2?
Step1: balance the equation
             2Cl2+O2--->2OCl2
Step2: convert both reactants to the desired product 
             44g  mol O2 x 2molOCl2      x    87g =       239g OCl2
             32g                 1mol O2        1mol OCl2


            97.0gmol Cl2 x 2mol OCl2 x       87g         =119gOCl2
            71g                    2Cl2           1mol OCl2


According to the answer, Cl2 is limiting reactant and O2 is excess reactant

Stoichiometry-Calculation involving Particle-moles-Mass

E.g
Zn+2HCl---->H2+ZnCl2
1how many grams of Zn are required to produce 6mole of hydrogen 
                   6molH2 x 1mol Zn    x  65.4g          =392g Zn
                                      1mol H2      1mole Zn




----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
C3H8+5O2---->3CO2+4H2O
a) What mass of CO2 is produced by reacting 3.00mole of O2?


3.00mol O2 x 3mol CO2   x  44.0g CO2    =79.2gCO2
                         5mol O2          1mol CO2
b)What mass of C3H8 is required to produce 100.0g of H2O?


100.0gH2O x 1mol H2O x 1mol C3H8 x 44.0gC3H8  =61.1g
                         18.0gH2O    4mol H2O     1mol C3H8


c) If a sample o propane is burned what mass of h2o is produced if the reaction also produces 50.0L of CO2 at STP? 

50.0L CO2 x 1mol CO2 x 4mol H2O x 18.0g H2O = 53.6g
                        22.4LCO2   3molCO2     1mol H2O

CH6:Stoichiometry-Calculation involving Reaction



-Stoichio: element
 Metry: measurement


-It's the study of calculating the amount of reactant used in a chemical reaction and how many product produced by the reaction
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
4NH3+5O2---->6H2O+4NO
4:5:6:4--the mole ratio
-Balanced chemical equation are required


*Coefficient in balanced equation tell us the number of moles reacted or produced and also be  used a conversion factors


-N2+3H2---->2NH3
N2:H2---1:3
NH3:H2---2:3
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Example:
CH4+2O2---CO2+2H2O


-0.15molCH4 x 1molCO2  =0.15molCO2
                           1molCH4
