Urea Formaldehyde Foam Insulation is the thermal insulation material that is no longer used because of formaldehyde gas emission

Urea Formaldehyde Foam Insulation is mixture of urea formaldehyde resin, foaming acid agent, and a propellant used in the 1970s for insulating purposes.

It was specifically designed to insulate the areas of the building that were hard to access. Unlike regular process, it was sprayed into the walls by using holes.

It is no longer used because it caused a raise in the formaldehyde gas in the residence. This gas caused irritations to the people living in the building. Residents started to report health issues like respiratory problems, and eyes, nose, throat irritation.

what is the limiting reactant when 1.50g of lithium and 1.50 g of nitrogen combine to form lithium nitride, a component of advan

PSYCHO15rus [73]

<h3>Answer:</h3>

Limiting reactant is Lithium

<h3>Explanation:</h3>

<u>We are given;</u>

Mass of Lithium as 1.50 g
Mass of nitrogen is 1.50 g

We are required to determine the rate limiting reagent.

First, we write the balanced equation for the reaction

6Li(s) + N₂(g) → 2Li₃N

From the equation, 6 moles of Lithium reacts with 1 mole of nitrogen.

Second, we determine moles of Lithium and nitrogen given.

Moles = Mass ÷ Molar mass

Moles of Lithium

Molar mass of Li = 6.941 g/mol

Moles of Li = 1.50 g ÷ 6.941 g/mol

= 0.216 moles

Moles of nitrogen gas

Molar mass of Nitrogen gas is 28.0 g/mol

Moles of nitrogen gas = 1.50 g ÷ 28.0 g/mol

= 0.054 moles

According to the equation, 6 moles of Lithium reacts with 1 mole of nitrogen.
Therefore, 0.216 moles of lithium will require 0.036 moles (0.216 moles ÷6) of nitrogen gas.
On the other hand, 0.054 moles of nitrogen, would require 0.324 moles of Lithium.

Thus, Lithium is the limiting reagent while nitrogen is in excess.

Determine the percent yield of a reaction that produces 28.65 g of Fe when 50.00 g of Fe2O3 react with excess Al according to th

Luba_88 [7]

Answer:

The percent yield of the reaction is 82%

Explanation:

First step: make the chemist equation.

2 Al (s) + Fe2O3 (s) → 2 Fe (s) + Al2O3 (s)

As the statement says that aluminun is in excess, the limiting reactant is the Fe2O3

Second step: Find out the moles in the reactant.

Molar weight Fe2O3: 159.7 g/m

Mass / Molar weight = moles

50 g /159.7 g/m = 0.313 moles

Third step: Analyse the reaction. 1 mol of Fe2O3 makes 2 moles of Fe.

1 mol Fe2O3 ____ 2Fe

0.313 mol Fe2O3 ____ 0.626 moles

Molar weight Fe = 55.85 g/m

Moles . molar weight = mass

55.85g/m . 0.626m = 34.9 grams

This will be the 100% yield of the reaction but we only made 28.65 g

34.9 g ____ 100%

28.65 g ____ 82.09 %

What is meant by atomic radius

Kaylis [27]

Answer:

The atomic radius of a chemical element is a measure of the size of its atoms, usually the mean or typical distance from the center of the nucleus to the boundary of the surrounding shells of electrons. ... The value of the radius may depend on the atom's state and context.
