If excess H_2O is used as stated in the illustration the amount of Mg_3N_2 that would be required would be 7.57 grams

<h3>Stoichiometric calculation</h3>

From the equation of the reaction:

Mg_3N_2(s) + 6H_2O(l) --- > 3Mg(OH)_2(s) + 2NH_3(g)

Since the yield is 80% of the theoretical value, in order to make 10g, the theoretical yield would be 12.5 g.

Mole ratio of Mg_3N_2 and Mg(OH)_2 = 3:1

Mole of 12.5 g  Mg(OH)_2 = 12.5/53.32 = 0.225moles

Equivalent mole of Mg_3N_2  = 0.124/3 = 0.075 moles

Mass of 0.0041 moles  Mg_3N_2 = 0.075 x 100.95 = 7.57 grams

Suppose you want to separate a mixture of the following compounds: salicylic acid, 4-ethylphenol, p-aminoacetophenone, and napth
Elodia [21]

Answer:

The procedure you will use in this exercise exploits the difference in acidity and solubility just described.

(a) you will dissolve your unknown in ethyl acetate (an organic solvent). All of the possible compounds are soluble in ethyl acetate.

(b) you will extract with sodium bicarbonate to remove any carboxylic acid that is present.

(c) you will extract with sodium hydroxide to remove any phenol that is present.

(d) you will acidify both of the resulting aqueous solutions to cause any compounds that were extracted to precipitate.

Ammonia (NH3) clouds are present around some planets. Calculate the number of grams of ammonia produced by the reaction of 5.4 g
Komok [63]

Answer:

30.4 g. NH3

Explanation:

This problem tells us that the hydrogen (H2) is the limiting reactant, as there is "an excess of nitrogen." Using stoichiometry (the relationship between the various species of the equation), we can see that for every 3 moles of H2 consumed, 2 moles of NH3 are produced.

But before we can use that relationship to find the number of grams of ammonia produced, we need to convert the given grams of hydrogen into moles:

5.4 g x [1 mol H2/(1.008x2 g.)] = 2.67857 mol H2 (not using significant figures yet; want to be as accurate as possible)

Now, we can use the relationship between H2 and NH3.

2.67857 mol H2 x (2 mol NH3/3 mol H2) = 1.7857 mol NH3

Now, we have the number of moles of ammonia produced, but the answer asks us for grams. Use the molar mass of ammonia to convert.

1.7857 mol NH3 x 17.034 g. NH3/mol NH3 = 30.4 g. NH3 (used a default # of 3 sig figs)
