3Si + 2N2 --> Si3N4 (as given)
n(Si) = m/MM = 38.25/28.085 = 1.3619 mol
n(N2) = 14.33/2*14.007 = 0.5115 mol
Therefore, N2 is limiting and Si is in excess
The molar ratio of 2N2:Si3N4 is 2:1
So, 0.0575 mol of silicon nitride is formed (dividing 0.5115 by 2)
m of silicon nitride= n*mm = 0.0575*140.283 = 8.06627... g
= 8.066g (4 significant figures)
(hopefully it is right, but double check in case i did something wrong) :)
Answer: Potassium Chloride
Explanation:
1. Make an observation
: My toaster doesn't toast my bread
2. Ask a question
: Why doesn't my toaster work?
3. Form a hypothesis
: My coffeemaker works when plugged into the outlet
4. Make a prediction
: If something is wrong with the outlet, then my coffeemaker also won't work when plugged into it
5. Conduct an experiment
: I plug my coffeemaker into the outlet
6. Analyze the results
: There is something wrong with the electrical outlet
Explanation:
The solution to the problem is as shown above.
- A scientific method follow a methodical way of critically carrying out an inquiry into an observation.
- Firstly, an observation is usually made with our senses. Here the researcher observes that the toaster does not toast his bread probably after a long wait.
- He then proceeds to ask why the toaster does not work.
- To investigate this, the forms a hypothesis. A hypothesis is a scientific guess. It is a tentative proposition about an investigation.
- The researcher then makes a prediction about the outlet that might be faulty.
- With this background, he goes on to carry out an experiment to substantiate his findings. This is seen when he plugs the coffeemaker into the outlet.
- From the analysis of result, he sees that that something is wrong with the outlet.
