The simplest molar ratio in which lithium reacts with nitrogen is 6 moles of lithium to 1 mol of nitrogen.

What is molar ratio?

A molar ratio examines the ratio that exist between two chemical compounds showing the amounts in moles of the compounds involved in a chemical reaction.

Molar ratio = amount of a constituent in moles ÷ total amount of all constituents in a mixture in moles

Given:

Mass of lithium (Li) = 4.2 g

Mass of  nitrogen (N2) = 2.8 g

Total amount of mass = 7g

Moles = molecular weight  ÷  mass of water

Moles of lithium (Li) = 4.2 ÷ 7 = 0.60 mol

Moles of nitrogen (N₂) = 2.8 ÷ 7 =  0.10 mol

Therefore, ratio Li : N₂ = 0.60 : 0.10 = 6 : 1

6 Li + N₂

The balanced equation between lithium and nitrogen, to form lithium nitride = 6 Li + N₂ → 2 Li₃N₆L i + N₂ → 2Li₃N

In summary, the simplest molar ratio in which lithium reacts with nitrogen is 6:1

sammy [17]

Answer:

B

Explanation:

If the student needs one gram but so far only has 0.37 grams, then the amount they need is the difference between what they need and how much they already have. 1-0.37=0.63 grams.

...which isn't actually an option because none of them have decimal points but I would say it is B anyway because it is the equivalent ratio and maybe there was a typo.

Hope this helped!

How can you prove copper is a catalyst?
jolli1 [7]
There is no way to know which reaction requires which catalyst. However, if you apply copper to a reaction where it does act as a catalyst, the rate of reaction will be much faster as it lowers the activation energy for successful collisions.
