The percent yield of the reaction between ammonia gas with oxygen gas is 90.52%.

A chemical reaction between ammonia gas (NH3) with oxygen gas (O2)

NH₃ + O₂ → NO₂ + H₂O

The balanced reaction 4NH₃ + 7O₂ → 4NO₂ + 6H₂O

Calculate the number of moles from the reactant

  • Ammonia gas
    Molar mass N = 14 gr/mol
    Molar mass H = 1 gr/mol
    Molar mass NH₃ = 14 + (3 × 1) = 14 + 3 = 17 gr/mol
    mass = 28.5 grams
    n = m ÷ molar mass = 28.5 ÷ 17 = 1.68 mol
  • Oxygen gas
    Molar mass O = 16 gr/mol
    Molar mass O₂ = 16 × 2 = 32 gr/mol
    mass = 83.4 grams
    n = m ÷ molar mass = 83.4 ÷ 32 = 2.61 mol
  • n O₂ ÷ coefficient O₂ = 2.61 ÷ 7 = 0.37
    n NH₃ ÷ coefficient NH₃ = 1.68 ÷ 4 = 0.42
    0.42 > 0.37 it means that the ammonia gas is in excess and the O₂ is limiting.

According to stoichiometry, the number of moles NO₂ with the number of moles O₂ has the ratio with the coefficient in reaction.

  • Theoretically the number moles of NO₂
    n O₂ : n NO₂ = 7 : 4
    2.61 : n NO₂ = 7 : 4
    n NO₂ = 4 x 2.61 : 7 = 1.49 mol
  • The actual number of moles NO₂
    Molar mas NO₂ = 14 + (16 × 2) = 14 + 32 = 46 gr/mol
    n NO₂ = m ÷ molar mass = 61.9 ÷ 46 = 1.35 mol

The percent yield NO₂ is the ratio of the actual number of moles NO₂ with the theoretical number of moles NO₂ times 100%.

P = (1.35 ÷ 1.49) × 100%

P = 0.9052 × 100%

P = 90.52%

What is the minimum mass of hubnerite (MnWO4), a tungsten ore, from which 95.0 g of pure tungsten could be extracted?
Gnoma [55]

From one mole of MnWO4, we get one mole of tungsten. Therefore 10.88 mol of tungsten will be obtained from 10.88 mol of MnWO4.

Molar mass MnWO4 = 54.94 + 183.84 + 4(16.0) = 302.78 g.mol-1

Therefore mass of MnWO4 required = mole x molar mass = 10.88 mol x 302.78 g.mol-1 = 3294.24 grams

And, 3294.24 grams = > 3.29424 kg

On rounding off to two significant digits, we get 3.3 kg.

Rounds a number to 3 significant digits the same way it rounds to 3 decimal places. Count up to 3 digits from the first non-zero digit. Then round off the last digit. Pad the remaining digits to the right of the decimal point with zeros. 0.0560 has 3 significant digits. In accordance with scientific conventions, leading zeros in decimal numbers are not treated as significant. So exclude 0.0 from 0.0560.
