Hello!

The initial mass of Magnesium Sulfate Heptahydrate (MgSO₄·7H₂O) is 23,08 g

The chemical reaction for the dehydrating of Magnesium Sulfate Heptahydrate (MgSO₄·7H₂O) is the following:

MgSO₄·7H₂O(s) + Δ → MgSO₄(s) + 7H₂O(g)

We know that the sample loses 11,80 g upon heating. That mass is the mass of Water that is released as vapor. Knowing that piece of information, we can apply the following conversion factor to go from the mass of water to the moles of water and back to the mass of the original compound (mi).

mi=11,80gH_2O* \frac{1 mol H_2O}{18gH_2O}* \frac{1molMgSO_4.7H_2O}{7molH_2O}* \frac{246,47 g MgSO_4.7H_2O}{1 mol MgSO_4.7H_2O}  \\  \\ mi=23,08gMgSO_4.7H_2O

Have a nice day!

In the important industrial process for producing ammonia (the Haber Process), the overall reaction is:
Kisachek [45]

Answer:

Explanation:

Here we have to use stoichiometry.

First of all, we have to calculate the mass of 100% of yield:

1.7 g ------- 98%

X -------- 100%

X = 1.73 g (approximately)

Second, we have to calculate the mass of N2 that is necessary to react to produce the mass of 1.73g of NH3. To do that, we have to use the Molar mass of N2 and NH3 and don't forget the stoichiometric relationship between them.

Molar Mass N2 : 14x2 = 28 g/mol

Molar Mass NH3: 14 + 3 = 17 g/mol

28g (N2) ------- 17x2 (NH3)

X ------------ 1.73 g

X = 1.42 g (approximately)
