We get 1700 Tonnes of Ammonia every day. How many tonnes of 63% Nitric acid we can get?

jeyben [28]

There are 3 equations involved in manufacturing Nitric Acid from Ammonia.

First the ammonia is oxidized:
4NH3 + 5O2 = 4NO + 6H2O

Then for the absorption of the nitrogen oxides.
2NO + O2 = N2O4

Lastly, the N2O4 is further oxidized into Nitric acid.
3N2O4 + 2H2O = 4HNO3 + 2NO

Then run stoichiometry through these equations.
The first equation produces roughly 271,722,938 grams of NO
The second equation produces roughly 416,606,944 grams of N2O4
The last equation produces roughly 380,412,294 grams of HNO3 (nitric acid)

Convert the exact number back into tons, and your answer is: <span>419.332775 tons.

Rounded, I'm going to say that's 419.33 tons.
Hope this helps! :)

Also, it seems that commercially, Nitric Acid is commonly made by bubbling NO2 into water, rather than using ammonia.

What is the oxidizing agent in the reaction 2MnO4-(aq) 10I-(aq) 16H (aq) ---> 2Mn2 (aq) 5I2(aq) 8H2O(l)

faltersainse [42]

Correct Question: what is the oxidizing agent in the reaction.

2MnO4–(aq) +10Cl–(aq) + 16H+(aq) --------> 5Cl2(g) + 2Mn2+(aq) +8H2O(l)

Answer: MnO4-is the oxidizing agent

Explanation:

In the reaction 2MnO4–(aq) +10Cl–(aq) + 16H+(aq) --------> 5Cl2(g) + 2Mn2+(aq) +8H2O(l)

Oxidizing agent oxidizes other molecules while the themselves get reduced.

oxidizing agents give away Oxygen to other compounds.

MnO4-is the oxidizing agent because

On the reactants side

Oxidation number of Mn in 2MnO4- is +7

Oxidation number of Cl- is -1

On the products side

Oxidation number of Mn is +2

While oxidation number of Cl is zero

Therefore the oxidizing agent is 2MnO4 because is oxidizes Chlorine from -1 to 0 while itself got reduced from oxidation state of +7 to +2

Muriatic acid, HCl, is often used to remove rust. A solution of muriatic acid, HCl, reacts with Fe2O3 deposits on industrial equ

Alina [70]

Answer:

3L

Explanation:

Step 1:

The balanced equation for the reaction.

Fe2O3(s) + 6HCl(aq) → 2FeCl3(aq) + 3H2O

Step 2 :

Determination of the masses of HCl and Fe2O3 that reacted from the balanced equation. This is illustrated below:

Molar mass of Fe2O3 = 159.70g/mol

Molar mass of HCl = 36.46 g/mol

Mass of HCl from the balanced equation = 6 x 36.46 = 218.76g

From the balanced equation above,

159.70g of Fe2O3 reacted with 218.76g of HCl

Step 3:

Determination of the mass of HCl needed to react with 439g of Fe2O3. This is illustrated below:

From the balanced equation above,

159.70g of Fe2O3 reacted with 218.76g of HCl.

Therefore, 439g of Fe2O3 will react with = (439 x 218.76) /159.70 = 601.35g of HCl.

Step 4:

Conversion of 601.35g of HCl to mole. This is illustrated below:

Molar mass of HCl = 36.46 g/mol

Mass of HCl = 601.35g

Number of mole = Mass/Molar Mass

Number of mole of HCl = 601.35/36.46

Number of mole of HCl = 16.49 moles

Step 5:

Determination of the volume of the HCl that reacted.

This is illustrated below:

Mole of HCl = 16.49 moles

Molarity of HCl = 5.50 M

Volume =?

Molarity = mole /Volume

Volume = mole /Molarity

Volume = 16.49/5.5

Volume of HCl = 3L

Therefore the volume of HCl needed for the reaction is 3L
