- A17.75g
- B36.5g
- C73g
11True or false? The formula to work out percentage yield is theoretical yield/actual yield * 100.
- ATrue
- BFalse
12Given 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)
- A50%
- B60%
- C70%

15Assuming that the reaction is reversible, what is the scientific notation for the reaction between ammonia and hydrogen chloride to form ammonium chloride?
- ANH3 + HCl --> NH4Cl
- BNH3 + HCl <--> NH4Cl
- CNH3 + HCl --> NH4Cl --> NH3 + HCl
