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.

Arturiano [62]

The question is incomplete, the complete question is;

One tank of goldfish is feed the normal amount which is once a day, a second tank is fed twice a day, and a third tank is fed four times a day during a 6 week study. The fishes' body fat is recorded daily.

Independent Variable-

Dependent Variable-

Constants

Control Group-

Answer:

A) The amount of food the gold fish receives

B) Body fat of the gold fish

C) -Type of fish used in the study (gold fish)

Time period within which the fishes were fed (Six week period)

Shape and size of tank

D) group of gold fish fed the normal amount

Explanation:

The purpose of the study is to determined the impact of amount of feed on the body fat of gold fish. Hence, the amount of feed is the independent variable while the body fat of the feed is the dependent variable.

The control group receives the normal amount of feed (once a day). The fishes are all gold fish, fed within a six week period. All the tanks were of the same shape and size. These are the constants in the study.
