If you were looking for a non-metal on the periodic table the best place to look would be a) on the top b) on the bottom c) on the left side d) on the right side

If you were looking for a non-metal on the periodic table, the best place to look would be on the right side.

             14.15 g of Ethyl Butyrate

Solution:

The Balance Chemical Equation is as follow;

           Butanoic Acid  +  Ethanol    →    Ethyl Butyrate  +  Water

Molar Mass of Butanoic Acid  =  88.11 g.mol⁻¹

Molar Mass of Ethanol  =  46.07 g.mol⁻¹

Molar Mass of Ethyl Butyrate  =  116.16 g.mol⁻¹

Molar Mass of Water  =  18.01 g.mol⁻¹

Step 1: Calculating Theoretical Yield:

According to Equation,

           88.11 g (1 mol) Butanoic Acid forms  =  116.16 g (1 mol) Ethyl Butyrate

So,

                 13.58 g Butanoic Acid will form  =  X g of Ethyl Butyrate

Solving for X,

                     X  =  (13.58 g × 116.16 g) ÷ 88.11 g

                     X  =  17.90 g

                     Theoretical Yield  =  17.90 g

Step 2: Calculating Actual Yield:

As,

                     %age Yield  =  Actual Yield ÷ Theoretical Yield × 100

Solving for Actual Yield,

                      Actual Yield  =  %age Yield × Theoretical Yield ÷ 100

Putting Values,

                      Actual Yield  =  79.1 × 17.90 ÷ 100

                      Actual Yield =  14.15 g of Ethyl Butyrate
