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.

To make 340mL of a 0.4 M solution of Lici, how many mL of a 8 M solution should be used?
ioda

Answer:

Volume is the quantity of three-dimensional space enclosed by a closed surface, for example, the space that a substance (solid, liquid, gas, or plasma) or shape occupies or contains. Volume is often quantified numerically using the SI derived unit, the cubic metre.

please hurry! If 3.87g of powdered aluminum oxide is placed in a container containing 5.67g of water, what is the limiting react
VikaD [51]

Answer:

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Mass of aluminium oxide = 3.87g

Mass of water = 5.67g

Unknown:

Limiting reactant = ?

Solution:

The limiting reactant is the reactant in short supply in a chemical reaction. We need to first write the chemical equation and convert the masses given to the number of moles.

Using the number of moles, we can ascertain the limiting reactants;

         Al₂O₃  + 3H₂O  →  2Al(OH)₃  

Number of moles;

            Number of moles = \frac{mass}{molar mass}

molar mass of Al₂O₃  = (2x27) + 3(16) = 102g/mole

    number of moles = \frac{3.87}{102}  = 0.04mole

   

molar mass of  H₂O = 2(1) + 16 = 18g/mole

    number of moles = \frac{5.67}{18}  = 0.32mole

From the reaction equation;

        1 mole of  Al₂O₃  reacted with 3 moles of H₂O

   0.04 mole of Al₂O₃ will react with 3 x 0.04 mole = 0.12 mole of H₂O

But we were given 0.32 mole of H₂O and this is in excess of amount required.

This shows that Al₂O₃ is the limiting reactant

Why do we not know yet if we live in multiverse
kherson [118]

The people of he world believe and they don't believe.

I,myself, think we do land don't live in multiverse.

Why: Because in science I hear that there are many universes out there that need to b explored.

Not: Because if we did, don't you think that Astronauts and the U.S. would try and find different universes.

I hope I helped you!:)

Describe how you would obtain a beaker of pure water from salty water
Maslowich

Answer:

You can boil or evaporate the water and the salt will be left behind as a solid. If you want to collect the water, you can use distillation. This works because salt has a much higher boiling point than water. One way to separate salt and water at home is to boil the salt water in a pot with a lid.
