Mass of potassium nitrate is needed to generate 215.0 L of gas, composed of 111.0 L of N₂ and 104.0 L of O₂ at 0.920 atm and 291 K, using these two reactions is 1186.75 g.

The reactions are :

2KNO₃ --->  2KNO₂  +  O₂

4KNO₂  ---->  2K₂O  + 3O₂  +  2N₂

Therefore,

4KNO₃  ---->  2K₂O  +   5O₂  +  2N₂

using the formula:

PV = nRT

moles of N₂ = PV / RT

P = 0.920 atm

T =291 K

R = 0.082 Latm/mol/k

moles of N₂ = 4.279 mol

moles of O₂ = (0.92 × 104) / 0.082 × 291

                   = 4.00 mol

from the equation .

moles of potassium nitrate to produce nitrogen = 2 × 4.279

                                                                                 = 8.55 mol

moles of nitrate tp produce oxygen = (4 / 5) × 4

                                                            = 3.2 mol

total moles of nitrate = 8.55 mol + 3.2 mol

                                   = 11.75 mol

mass of potassium nitrate = number of moles × molar mass

                                           = 11.75 × 101

                                           = 1186.75 g

Thus, Mass of potassium nitrate is needed to generate 215.0 L of gas, composed of 111.0 L of N₂ and 104.0 L of O₂ at 0.920 atm and 291 K, using these two reactions is 1186.75 g.

How many moles are in a 111.5 gram sample of sodium chloride, NaCl?
Katarina [22]

Answer: 1.91 moles

Explanation:

First you want to find the molar mass of NaCL

Na = 22.99g  Cl = 35.45g

22.99g + 35.45g = 54.44g

Then divide 111.5g by 54.44g and this will give you moles.

The coordination sphere of a complex consists of ________. The coordination sphere of a complex consists of ________. the ligand
sammy [17]

Answer:

The coordination sphere of a complex consists of <u><em>the central metal ion and the ligands bonded to it.</em></u>

Explanation:

The Coordination Compounds are sets of a central metal ion attached to a group of molecules or ions that surround it. They are also called metal complexes or simply complexes. Then they are compounds that have a central atom surrounded by a group of molecules or ions, the latter called ligands.

The central atom must have empty orbitals capable of accepting pairs of electrons, with the transition metals being the ones with the greatest tendency. Because of this, they can act as Lewis acids (electron pair acceptors). The ligands have unshared electron pairs, then acting as Lewis bases (electron pair donors).

When forming a complex, it is said that the ligands coordinate to the metal and the central metal and the ligands attached to it constitute the coordination sphere of the complex.

Finally, <u><em>the coordination sphere of a complex consists of the central metal ion and the ligands bonded to it.</em></u>

part of the SO2 that is introduced into the atmosphere by combustion of sulfur containing compounds ends up being converted to s
alisha [4.7K]

Answer:

5 mol.

Explanation:

Equation of the reaction

2SO2 + 2H2O + O2 --> 2H2SO4

By stoichiometry, 2 moles of SO2 reacted with 2 moles of water and 1 mole of O2 to give 2 mole of sulphuric acid.

Number of moles:

5.0 mol SO2

4.0 mol O2

20.0 mol H2O

Calculating the limiting reagent,

5 mol of SO2 * 1 mol of O2/2 mol of SO2

= 2.5 mol of O2(4 mol of O2 is present)

5 mol of SO2 * 2 mol of H2O/2 mol of SO2

= 5 mol of H2O(20 mol of H2O)

SO2 is the limiting reagent.

Therefore, number of moles of H2SO4 = 5 mol of SO2 * 2 mol of H2SO4/2 mol of SO2

= 5 mol of H2SO4.
