Answer from: aydenmasonc

Theoretical yield = 31.8 g

Explanation:

The formula for the calculation of moles is shown below:

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

For Al_2O_3

Mass of Al_2O_3 = 60.0 g

Molar mass of Al_2O_3 = 101.96128 g/mol

The formula for the calculation of moles is shown below:

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

Thus,

$Moles= \frac{60.0\ g}{101.96128\ g/mol}$

$Moles_{Al_2O_3}= 0.5885\ mol$

Given: For

Given mass = 30.0 g

Molar mass of = 12.0107 g/mol

The formula for the calculation of moles is shown below:

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

Thus,

$Moles= \frac{30.0\ g}{12.0107\ g/mol}$

$Moles_{C}= 2.4978\ mol$

According to the given reaction:

$Al_2O_3+3C\rightarrow 2Al+3CO$

1 mole of aluminium oxide react with 3 moles of carbon

0.5885 mole of aluminium oxide react with $3\times 0.5885$ moles of carbon

Moles of carbon = 1.7655 moles

Available moles of carbon = 2.4978 moles

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

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

1 mole of aluminium oxide on reaction forms 2 moles of aluminium.

0.5885 mole of aluminium oxide on reaction forms $2\times 0.5885$ moles of aluminium.

Moles of aluminium = 1.177 moles

Molar mass of aluminium = 26.981539 g/mol

Mass of sodium sulfate = Moles × Molar mass = 1.177 × 26.981539 g = 31.8 g

Theoretical yield = 31.8 g

Answer from: Quest

"among the transition metal elements, manganese and zinc have a slight lowering of electronegativities. the reason behind this is that the nuclear charges of these elements are slightly weaker than the other transition metal elements due to the way their valence electrons are filled up. both manganese and zinc have their valence electrons filled up to the 4th shell with 1 pair of electrons (4s2) completely occupying it. although the electrons in the 3rd shell (3d) are yet to be paired since the outer most shell is filled up, the ability of the nucleus to attract electrons is lessened. hence, the electronegativity (or the ability to attract electrons) is lessened."
