Two successive reaction a to b and b to c have yields of 86 and 47 respectively what is the overall percent yield for conversion of A to C?

As a general rule, the overall percent yield is the product of individual yields of the successive reactions under consideration. In this case, the overall percent yield for conversion of A to C can be calculated as (0.86 X 0.47 = 0.4042) i.e. 40.42% or about 40% after rounding up. Hope this answers the question.

How is the molecularity of the rate-controlling step related to the overall reaction order?
the molecularity must be equal to the overall reaction order.
Alignment of molecules needed for a reaction to occur?
Is their [overall general] conformation. Please note that there are always two chemical configurations to regard: [in short] - pre-reaction and post-reaction.
Is the dissolving of sodium chloride in water endothermic or exothermic reaction?
It is small, but overall endothermic.
What is the overall voltage for the nonspontaneous redox reaction involving mg and cu and their ions?
-2.37 - 0.34
What is the overall voltage for a redox reaction with the half-reaction Mg s Mg2 2e- and Cu2 2e- Cu s?
0.34 - (-2.37) you're welcome.
How is the molecularity of the rate-controlling step related to the overall reaction order?
the molecularity must be equal to the overall reaction order.
Does the overall enthalpy change of a chemical reaction depend on the reaction pathway?
Absolutely not.
What type of reaction is exothermic reaction?
The reaction in which energy is being released, and the overall energy change (enthalpy) is negative.
Which of the part of the overall reaction for photosynthesis?
carbon dioxide
Do enzymes affect the thermodynamics of a reaction true or false?
Enzymes have no effect on the overall thermodynamics of a reaction.
How is rate of a chemical reaction usually expressed?
Rates of reaction can be expressed depending upon their order.For example say you have a reaction between two chemicals and the initial rate for that reaction is known :-when:-The concentration of one of the reactants is doubled and the other reactants concentration remains the same and the overall rate of reaction does not change - reaction is zero orderwith respect to chemical which was doubled.The concentration of one of the reactants is doubled and other reactants concentration remains the same and the overall rate of reaction doubles - reaction is first order with respect to chemical which was doubled.The concentration of one of the reactants is doubled and other reactants concentration remains the same and the overall rate of reaction quadruples - reaction is second order with respect to chemical which was doubled.Zero Orderrate = kFirst Orderrate = k [A] (reaction is 1st order with respect to [A] and 1st order overall)Second Orderrate = k [A][B] (reaction is first order with respect to [A] and first order with respect to[B], reaction is second order overall)rate = k [A]2 (reaction is second order with respect to [A] and second order overall)Orders are simply added together in order to determine the overall order of reaction :-rate = k [A][B][C] would be third order overall and first order with respect to each of the reactantsThere are other orders of reaction, for example 2 and 3 quarter orders and third order reactions, but these are a little more complex.
What is it called when someone tries to change your beliefs?
It depends on the method used but overall it is called conversion.
The reaction in photosynthesis can be endergonic or exergonic?
The energy balance for the overall reaction does not determine if the reaction needs energy input to occur, or not. The requirement, or not, for energy input, depends on the activation energy and that is independent of the overall enthalpy change. There is no answer to your question - it could be any, all or none.
What is the chemical reaction fro cellular repiration?
The overall chemical reaction for aerobic cellular respiration is C6H12O6 + 6O2 --> 6H2O + 6CO2.
