Answer
  • True
  • False

Question 12

Question
Given that CaCO3 --> CaO + CO2, what is the percentage yield of CaO if 100g of CaCO3 were used and 39g of CaO were collected? (RAM of Ca = 40, RAM of C = 12, RAM of O = 16)
Answer
  • 50%
  • 60%
  • 70%
  • 80%

Question 13

Question
Why is the percentage yield of a reaction rarely 100%?
Answer
  • The reaction may be reversible
  • Some of the product may not be collected
  • The reaction may be incomplete
  • The product may have been hidden

Question 14

Question
What is a reversible reaction?
Answer
  • One in which the reaction is always incomplete
  • One in which the products may react to produce reactants
  • One in which the products disintegrate upon production

Question 15
