81.3 %

Explanation:

The formula for the calculation of moles is shown below:

$moles = \frac{Mass\ taken}{Molar\ mass}$

For ferrocene:-

Mass of ferrocene = 100 mg = 0.1 g

Molar mass of ferrocene = 186.04 g/mol

The formula for the calculation of moles is shown below:

$moles = \frac{Mass\ taken}{Molar\ mass}$

Thus,

$Moles= \frac{0.1\ g}{186.04\ g/mol}$

$Moles\ of\ ferrocene= 0.0005375\ mol$

For acetyl chloride:-

Volume = 40 microliters = 0.04 mL

Density = 1.1 g / mL

Density is defined as:-

$\rho=\frac{Mass}{Volume}$

or,

$Mass={\rho}\times Volume=1.1\times 0.04\ g=0.044 g$

Mass of acetyl chloride = 0.044 g

Molar mass of acetyl chloride = 78.49 g/mol

The formula for the calculation of moles is shown below:

$moles = \frac{Mass\ taken}{Molar\ mass}$

Thus,

$Moles= \frac{0.044\ g}{78.49\ g/mol}$

$Moles\ of\ acetyl\ chloride= 0.0005606\ mol$

As per the reaction stoichiometry, one mole of ferrocene reacts with one mole of acetyl chloride to give one mole of monoacetylferrocene

Limiting reagent is the one which is present in small amount. Thus, ferrocene is limiting reagent.

The formation of the product is governed by the limiting reagent. So,

one mole of ferrocene on reaction forms one mole of monoacetylferrocene

0.0005375 mole of ferrocene on reaction forms 0.0005375 mole of monoacetylferrocene

Moles of product formed = 0.0005375 moles

Molar mass of monoacetylferrocene = 228.07 g/mole

Mass of monoacetylferrocene produced = Moles*molecular weight = 0.0005375*228.07 g = 0.123 grams = 123 mg

Given experimental yield = 100 mg

% yield = (Experimental yield / Theoretical yield) × 100 = (100/ 123) × 100 = 81.3 %

Answer from: Quest

answer: option (b) is the correct answer.

explanation:

a covalent bond is formed by sharing of electrons. whereas polarity arises due to difference in electronegativity of two atoms.

therefore, more is the electronegativity of an atom which combines with the titanium, more readily it will induce a partial positive and negative charge.

thus, out of the given options fluorine is most electronegative and has an incomplete octet. therefore, it will readily combine with titanium to share the electrons and complete its octet.

aquifers are bounded above and below by impermeable rock. the driving force of groundwater movement in confined aquifers is pressure, rather than gravity.

You exhale co2 which is produced during cellular respiration. co2 combines with the water in your blood's plasma to make up one half of the body's most important buffer pair, carbonic acid. the more physical activity you engage in, the more co2 your body is producing. you can see this by putting some of the cabbage indicator in a glass and then blowing bubbles into it through a straw. can you see a change in the color of the indicator?
