1. The element arsenic can be commercially produced when arsenic (III) oxide is heated with carbon in this reaction:
2As2O3 + 3C → 3CO2 + 4As
a) If 8.87 g of As2O3 is used in the reaction and 5.33 g of As is produced, what is the percent yield?
b) In a separate reaction, if 67 g of carbon is used up and 425 g of As is produced, calculate the percent yield of this reaction.
2. Nitrogen dioxide, NO2, can react to form dinitrogen pentoxide, N2O5, by reacting with ozone, O3. The reaction occurs according to this equation:
2NO2 (g) + O3 (g) → N2O5 (s) + O2 (g)
a) Calculate the percent yield for a reaction where 0.38 g of NO2 reacts and 0.36 g N2O5 is produced.
b) What mass of N2O5 will result from the reaction of 6.0 mol of NO2 if there is a 61.1% yield in the reaction?
