Calcium Hydroxide (Ca(OH)2) can actually be formed by the
reaction of Calcium Oxide (CaO) with water (H2O). The complete balanced
chemical reaction is:
<span>CaO + H2O
--> Ca(OH)2</span>
<span>The subscript 2 in (OH) means that there are 2 O and 2 H
on the product side. Hence, the equation is balanced already.</span>
The correct answer for the question that is being presented above is this one: "<span>16.728 g."</span>
Given that
ΔHsolid = -5.66 kJ/mol.
This means that 5.66 kJ of heat is released when 1 mole of NH3 solidifies
When 5.57 kJ of heat is released
amount of NH3 solidifies = 5.57/5.66 = 0.984 moles
<span>molar mass of NH3 = 17 g/mole </span>
<span>1 mole of NH3 = 17 g </span>
So, 0.984 moles of NH3 = 17 X 0.984 = 16.728 g
