Sample Problem 2: Yield of Na₂CO₃·10H₂O Crystals

This page focuses on a problem involving the crystallization of sodium carbonate decahydrate Na2CO310H2ONa₂CO₃·10H₂O from a cooling process. The problem demonstrates how to calculate theoretical yield and actual yield of crystals when a solution of Na₂CO₃ is cooled and partially evaporated.

The solution method follows a systematic approach, starting with the given information about the initial solution composition and conditions. It then applies mass balance principles to determine the masses of liquid, vapor, and crystal phases. The problem introduces the concept of partial evaporation during cooling, which adds complexity to the calculation.

Definition: Theoretical yield - The maximum amount of product that can be produced based on the limiting reagent in a chemical reaction or process.

Example: The problem calculates the yield of Na₂CO₃·10H₂O crystals when 5000 kg of a 12.5% Na₂CO₃ solution is cooled and 5% of the water evaporates.

The solution demonstrates how to calculate yield percentage in production by comparing the amount of Na₂CO₃ in the crystals to the initial amount in the feed solution. This approach is essential for understanding the efficiency of industrial crystallization processes.

Highlight: The problem illustrates the importance of considering both anhydrous and hydrated forms of the compound when calculating yields in crystallization processes.

It then applies mass balance equations to calculate the masses of the liquid, vapor, and crystal phases. The crystallization process steps are clearly outlined, demonstrating how to use solubility data and mass balances to determine the yield.

Vocabulary: Solubility - The amount of a substance that can dissolve in a given amount of solvent at a specific temperature.

Example: The problem uses a specific case where 1000 kg of a saturated MgSO₄ solution is cooled, resulting in crystal formation.

Highlight: The solution emphasizes the importance of considering both the overall mass balance OMBOMB and the component mass balance CMBCMB in crystallization calculations.

The final step involves calculating the percentage yield of MgSO₄·7H₂O crystals, which is a crucial aspect of how to calculate percentage yield from mass in crystallization processes.

I think it’s very much worth it and you’ll end up using it a lot once you get the hang of it and even after looking at others notes you can still ask your Artificial intelligence buddy the question and ask to simplify it if you still don’t get it!!! In the end I think it’s worth it 😊👍 ⚠️Also DID I MENTION ITS FREEE YOU DON’T HAVE TO PAY FOR ANYTHING AND STILL GET YOUR GRADES IN PERFECTLY❗️❗️⚠️

Knowunity is the BEST app I’ve used in a minute. This is not an ai review or anything this is genuinely coming from a 7th grade student (I know 2011 im young) but dude this app is a 10/10 i have maintained a 3.8 gpa and have plenty of time for gaming. I love it and my mom is just happy I got good grades

I found this app a couple years ago and it has only gotten better since then. I really love it because it can help with written questions and photo questions. Also, it can find study guides that other people have made as well as flashcard sets and practice tests. The free version is also amazing for students who might not be able to afford it. Would 100% recommend
