Why can't the subscripts be changed?

Subscripts cannot be changed because they are the ratio of the amount. And as we know, in a chemical equation/reaction, mass cannot be created nor destroyed. Therefore, we cannot change subscripts, however, we could change coefficients. <span />

Because it messes the whole problem up! Change the coefficants unstead of subscripts

When 100 mL of 1.0 M Na3PO4 is mixed with 100 mL of 1.0 M AgNO3, a yellow precipitate forms and [Ag ] becomes negligibly small.
lana [24]

Answer:

Na3PO4 + 3AgNO3 -------> Ag3PO4 + 3NaNO3

In which [Ag+] in negligibly small and the concentration of each reactant is 1.0 M

The answer is A)  PO43- < NO3- < Na+

Explanation:

Ag+ is removed from the solution just like PO43-, so there are just 2 possible answers at this point: a or b. Then we can notice that Na3PO4 releases 3 moles of Na+ and just 1 mole of NO3-

We have 100mL of each reactant with the same concentration for both (1.0 M) so:

(0.1)(1)(3)= 0.3 mol Na+

(0.1)(1)= 0.1 mol NO3-

so PO43- < NO3- < Na+

labwork [276]

Answer : 51.8 g of nitrogen are needed to produce 100 grams of ammonia gas.

Solution : Given,

Mass of NH_3 = 100 g

Molar mass of NH_3 = 27 g/mole

Molar mass of N_2 = 28 g/mole

First we have to calculate moles of NH_3.

\text{ Moles of }NH_3=\frac{\text{ Mass of }NH_3}{\text{ Molar mass of }NH_3}= \frac{100g}{27g/mole}=3.7moles

The given balanced chemical reaction is,

N_2(g)+3H_2(g)\rightarrow 2NH_3(g)

From the given reaction, we conclude that

2 moles of NH_3 produced from 1 mole of N_2

3.7 moles of NH_3 produced from \frac{1mole}{2mole}\times 3.7mole=1.85moles of N_2

Now we have to calculate the mass of N_2.

Mass of N_2 = Moles of N_2 × Molar mass of N_2

Mass of N_2 = 1.85 mole × 28 g/mole = 51.8 g

Therefore, 51.8 g of nitrogen are needed to produce 100 grams of ammonia gas.
