The oxidation of ammonia produces nitrogen and water via the following reaction: 4NH3(g) + 3O2(g) → 2N2(g) + 6H2O(l) Suppose the
Sonbull [250]

Answer:

The rate of consumption of NH_{3} is 2.0 mol/L.s

Explanation:

Applying law of mass action to this reaction-

-\frac{1}{4}\frac{\Delta [NH_{3}]}{\Delta t}=-\frac{1}{3}\frac{\Delta [O_{2}]}{\Delta t}=\frac{1}{2}\frac{\Delta [N_{2}]}{\Delta t}=\frac{1}{6}\frac{\Delta [H_{2}O]}{\Delta t}

where -\frac{\Delta [NH_{3}]}{\Delta t} represents rate of consumption of NH_{3}, -\frac{\Delta [O_{2}]}{\Delta t} represents rate of consumption of O_{2}, \frac{\Delta [N_{2}]}{\Delta t} represents rate of formation of N_{2} and \frac{\Delta [H_{2}O]}{\Delta t} represents rate of formation of H_{2}O.

Here rate of formation of H_{2}O is 3.0 mol/(L.s)

From the above equation we can write-

-\frac{1}{4}\frac{\Delta [NH_{3}]}{\Delta t}=\frac{1}{6}\frac{\Delta [H_{2}O]}{\Delta t}

Here \frac{\Delta [H_{2}O]}{\Delta t}=3.0 mol/(L.s))

So, -\frac{\Delta [NH_{3}]}{\Delta t}=\frac{4}{6}\frac{\Delta [H_{2}O]}{\Delta t}

Hence, -\frac{\Delta [NH_{3}]}{\Delta t}=\frac{4}{6}\times 3.0 mol/(L.s)=2.0 mol/(L.s)

const2013 [10]

Answer: 4KO_2+2CO_2\rightarrow 2K_2CO_3+3O_2

Explanation:

According to the law of conservation of mass, mass can neither be created nor be destroyed. Thus the mass of products has to be equal to the mass of reactants. The number of atoms of each element has to be same on reactant and product side. Thus chemical equations are balanced.

The balanced chemical equation for reaction of potassium superoxide  with carbon dioxide to produce oxygen and potassium carbonate will be:

4KO_2+2CO_2\rightarrow 2K_2CO_3+3O_2

4.One rubber tire can generate about250,000 BTUS (1BTU=.0003KW ) when it is burned. The average American home consumes about 10,
jekas [21]

Answer:

The number of tires required to power ten homes for one year is approximately 2,730 tires

Explanation:

The given information are;

The energy generated by burning one rubber tire = 250,000 BTUs

1 BTU = 0.0003 kW

The amount of energy consumed by the average American home = 10,000 kWh

Therefore, the amount of energy generated by burning one tire in kW can be found as follows;

The energy generated by burning one rubber tire = 250,000 BTUs

1 BTU = 0.0003 kW

∴ 1 BTU × 250,000 = 250,000 BTUs = 0.0003 kW × 250,000 = 75 kW

We note that 250,000 BTUs is equivalent to 263764 kJ

1 kWh is equivalent to 3600 kJ

10,000 kWh = 10,000 × 3600 = 36,000,000 kJ

The energy requirement for ten homes  for one year = 10 × 36,000,000 kJ = 360,000,000 kJ

At 50% efficiency, the energy produced per tire = 0.5 × 263764 kJ = 131,882 kJ

The electrical energy produced per tire = 131,882 kJ/tire

The number of tires required to power ten homes for one year = 360,000,000 kJ/  131,882 kJ/tire = 2,729.71293  ≈2,730 tires

The number of tires required to power ten homes  ≈2,730 tires.

Martha ran 420 m, and Cole ran 60 m less than Martha. The distance Kate ran is right in the middle of Martha and Cole's distance
prohojiy [21]

Answer:

390 m

Explanation:

Martha ran 420 m

Cole ran 60 m less than Martha = 420 m - 60 m = 360 m

The distance Kate ran is right in the middle of Martha and Cole's distances

Kate distance = (420 + 360) / 2 = 780 / 2 = 390 m
