Taking into account the reaction stoichiometry, the theorical yield for the reaction is 8.0467 grams of NH₃.

<h3>Reaction stoichiometry</h3>

In first place, the balanced reaction is:

3 H₂ + N₂ → 2 NH₃

By reaction stoichiometry (that is, the relationship between the amount of reagents and products in a chemical reaction), the following amounts of moles of each compound participate in the reaction:

  • H₂: 3 moles
  • N₂: 1 mole
  • NH₃: 2 moles

The molar mass of the compounds is:

  • H₂: 2 g/mole
  • N₂: 28 g/mole
  • NH₃: 17 g/mole

Then, by reaction stoichiometry, the following mass quantities of each compound participate in the reaction:

  • H₂: 3 moles ×2 g/mole= 6 grams
  • N₂: 1 mole ×28 g/mole= 28 grams
  • NH₃: 2 moles ×17 g/mole= 34 grams

<h3>Limiting reagent</h3>

The limiting reagent is one that is consumed first in its entirety, determining the amount of product in the reaction. When the limiting reagent is finished, the chemical reaction will stop.

<h3>Limiting reagent in this case</h3>

To determine the limiting reagent, it is possible to use a simple rule of three as follows: if by stoichiometry 28 grams of N₂ reacts with 6 grams of H₂, 10.4 grams of N₂ reacts with how much mass of H₂?

mass of H_{2} =\frac{10.4 grams of N_{2}x 6 grams of H_{2} }{28 grams of N_{2}}

<u><em>mass of H₂= 2.2286 grams</em></u>

But 2.2286 grams of H₂ are not available, 1.42 grams are available. Since you have less mass than you need to react with 10.4 grams of N₂, H₂ will be the limiting reagent.

<h3>Definition of theorical yield</h3>

The theoretical yield is the amount of product acquired through the complete conversion of all reagents in the final product, that is, it is the maximum amount of product that could be formed from the given amounts of reagents.

<h3>Theoretical yield in this case</h3>

Considering the limiting reagent, the following rule of three can be applied: if by reaction stoichiometry 6 grams of H₂ form 34 grams of NH₃, 1.42 grams of H₂ form how much mass of NH₃?

mass of NH_{3} =\frac{1.42 grams of H_{2} x 34 grams of NH_{3}}{6grams of H_{2} }

<u><em>mass of NH₃= 8.0467 grams</em></u>

Then, the theorical yield for the reaction is 8.0467 grams of NH₃.

Please help ASAP! What mass of hydrogen is needed to produce 10 moles of ammonia (NH3)?
stiks02 [169]

Answer:

Mass = 30 g

Explanation:

Given data:

Mass of hydrogen needed = ?

Number of moles of ammonia produced = 10 mol

Solution:

Chemical equation:

N₂ + 3H₂        →      2NH₃

Now we will compare the moles of ammonia and hydrogen.

                  NH₃            :                H₂

                    2               :                3

                   10               :               3/2×10 = 15 mol

Mass of hydrogen needed:

Mass = number of moles × molar mass

Mass = 15 mol × 2 g/mol

Mass = 30 g

Consider a 0.10 M aqueous benzoic acid, CeHeCOOH. The K benzoic acid. 6.5 x 10 for A) Write a balanced equation that shows the r
7nadin3 [17]

Answer:

a) C6H5COOH + H2O ↔ H3O+  +  C6H5COO-

b) [ H3O+ ] = 2.517 E-3 M

c) pH = 2.599

Explanation:

a) balanced equation:

C6H5COOH + H2O ↔ H3O+  +  C6H5COO-

⇒ Ka = ( [ H3O+ ] * [ C6H5COO- ] ) / [ C6H5COOH ] = 6.5 E-5

mass balance:

0.10 m = [ C6H5COO- ] + [ C6H5COOH ].....(1)

charge balance:

[ H3O+ ] = [ C6H5COO- ] + [ OH- ] .......[ OH- ] : comes from water, it's not significant

⇒ [ H3O+ ] = [ C6H5COO- ] .........(2)

b) (2) in (1):

⇒ 0.10 M = [ H3O+ ] + [ C6H5COOH ]

⇒ [ C6H5COOH ] = 0.10 - [ H3O+ ]

⇒ Ka = [ H3O+ ]² / ( 0.1 - [ H3O+ ] ) = 6.5 E-5

⇒ [ H3O+ ]² + 6.5 E-5 [ H3O+ ] - 6.5 E-6 = 0

⇒ [ H3O+ ] = 2.517 E-3 M

c) pH = - log [ H3O+ ]

⇒ pH = - Log ( 2.517 E-3 )

⇒ pH = 2.599

Use the molar heat capacity for aluminum from table 1 to calculate the amount of energy needed to raise the temperature of 260.5
Nimfa-mama [501]
Unfortunately, you failed to include the table 1 from which the molar heat capacity of aluminum could have been obtained. However, as a general rule, the heat needed to raise the temperature of a certain substance by certain degrees is calculated through the equation,
                            H = mcpdT
where H is heat, m is mass, cp is specific heat capacity, and dT is change in temperature. From a reliable source, cp for aluminum is equal to 0.215 cal/g°C. Substituting this to the equation,
                               H = (260.5 g)(0.215 cal/g°C)(125°C - 0)
                                        H = 7000.94 cal
