The reform reaction between steam and gaseous methane (CH4) produces "synthesis gas," a mixture of carbon monoxide gas and dihyd

rogen gas. Synthesis gas is one of the most widely used industrial chemicals, and is the major industrial source of hydrogen.
Suppose a chemical engineer studying a new catalyst for the reform reaction finds that 924. liters per second of methane are consumed when the reaction is run at 261.°C and 0.96atm. Calculate the rate at which dihydrogen is being produced. Give your answer in kilograms per second. Round your answer to 2 significant digits.

Answer:

The rate at which dihydrogen is being produced is 0.12 kg/sec.

Explanation:

CH_4+H_2O\rightarrow CO+3H_2 Haber reaction

Volume of methane consumed in a second = 924 L

Temperature at which reaction is carried out,T= 261°C = 538.15 K

Pressure at which reaction is carried out, P = 0.96 atm

Let the moles of methane be n.

Using an Ideal gas equation:

PV=nRT

n=\frac{PV}{RT}=\frac{0.96 atm\times 924 L}{0.0821 atm l/mol K\times 538.15 K}=20.0769 mol

According to reaction , 1 mol of methane gas produces 3 moles of dihydrogen gas.

Then 20.0769 mol of dihydrogen will produce :

\frac{3}{1}\times 20.0769 mol=60.2307 mol of dihydrogen

Mass of 24.3194 moles of ammonia =24.3194 mol × 2 g/mol

=120.46 g=0.12046 kg ≈ 0.12 kg

924 L of methane are consumed in 1 second to produce 0.12 kg of dihydrogen in 1 second. So the rate at which dihydrogen is being produced is 0.12 kg/sec.

Water-soluble vitamins: a. often result in toxicities b. are easily excreted in the urine c. are stored in body tissues to a lar
enyata [817]

Answer: Option (b) is the correct answer.

Explanation:

Vitamins which are soluble in water are known as water-soluble vitamins. And, vitamins which remain insoluble in water are known as water-insoluble vitamins.

Water-soluble vitamins are able to be easily excreted by the human body through urine. For example, vitamin C and vitamin B-complex are water soluble vitamins.

Thus, we can conclude that water-soluble vitamins are easily excreted in the urine.

Describe what happens to the molecules in the ice as temperature of the ice increases
german

Answer:

When you heat ice, the individual molecules gain kinetic energy, but until the temperature reaches the melting point, they don't have energy to break the bonds that hold them in a crystal structure. They vibrate more quickly within their confines as you add heat, and the temperature of the ice goes up.
