GeF₃H is formed from GeH₄ and GeF₄ in the combination reaction: GeH₄ + 3GeF₄ → 4GeF₃H
If the reaction yield is 92.6%, how many moles of GeF₄ are needed to produce 8.00 mol of GeF₃H?

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

From the balanced chemical equation, we know that 3 moles of GeF₄ react to produce 4 moles of GeF₃H. So, the unknown amount of moles of GeF₄ needed to produce 8.00 mol of GeF₃H can be calculated as follows: 4 mol GeF₃H × (3 mol GeF₄ / 4 mol GeF₃H) × (0.926 yield) = 2.78 mol GeF₄ Therefore, the best answer is C, 6.48.
