thanks guys i get the first part all now .. but about part ii the max moles , is it like always if there is one mole it will me 0.08 ?
and why we didnt use the 10.4 in anything ??
can some one just complete that part till the percentage yield thanks <3
its because you do not know the mass of NiSO4 that reacted, maybe half of it reacted , all u know i that the number of moles of NiSO4 is 0.08 mol
and since it is 1:1 ratio so, if all the NiSO4 reacted that means that maximun number of crystals would be fromed which has a mol of 0.08 (1:1 ratio)
and to find the maximum mass use the formula: mass = moles x m
r ----> 0.08 x 281 = 22.48
so that is the maxmun mass that could be produced
the percentage yeild is given by the formula : mass given/theoritical amount x 100
so in this case 10.4/22.48 x 100 = 46.3%
