Answer:- 3.83 g of hydrogen gas are formed.

Solution:- It is a stoichiometry problem and could easily be solved using dimensional analysis. The balanced equation for the decomposition of ammonia gas to give nitrogen and hydrogen gases is:

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

From balanced equation, there is 2:3 mol ratio between ammonia and hydrogen. We start with given grams of ammonia and convert them to moles on dividing the grams by molar mass.

In next step the moles of ammonia are multiplied by mol ratio to get the moles of hydrogen which are finally multiplied by it's molar mass to get the grams of hydrogen gas formed.

The set is shown below:

21.7gNH_3(\frac{1mol NH_3}{17g NH_3})(\frac{3mol H_2}{2mol NH_3})(\frac{2g H_2}{1mol H_2})

= 3.83g H_2

So, from the calculations 3.83 g of hydrogen gas are formed by the decomposition of 21.7 g of ammonia gas.

Which best describes nuclear fission
Firlakuza [10]
<span>Nuclear fission is either a nuclear reaction or radio active decay process in which nucleus (the center) of an atom splits into smaller parts called nuclei. This is an extremely exothermic reaction (i.e a reaction which produces heat) resulting into release of massive amount of energy in the form of heat and sometimes light. The reaction produces much more energy as compared to a similar mass of a conventional fuel, such as Petrol/Kerosene/Petroleum Gas etc. This makes Nuclear fission an extremely dense and at times very destructive source of energy. Some common elements capable of Nuclear fission are Uranium, Plutonium etc. Though in modern days Nuclear Fission are finding application in being a source of energy (such as a Nuclear power plant), but they are also used in destructive format as Nuclear Bombs and it's one of the top most imminent threats to the existence of humanity in future (in the event of a Nuclear war).</span>

What amount if force need to be applied to a 20 kg bowling ball to give it an acceleration of 5m/s
balandron [24]

Answer:

100N

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Mass of the bowling ball  = 20kg

Acceleration  = 5m/s²

Unknown:

Amount of force applied  = ?

Solution:

To solve this problem, we apply newton's second law of motion.

    Force  = mass x acceleration

Now insert the parameters and solve;

   Force  = 20 x 5  = 100N

Why is it suggested you use weighing paper or a watch glass instead of filter paper on which to allow a sample to dry? please gi
snow_lady [41]
The suggestion is to prevent a puddle of the liquid present in the sample from forming or from it leaking on to the surface on which it is placed. For example, if precipitates of a solid are removed from water and then placed on filter paper to dry, the water will soak into the filter paper and then leak on to the counter on which it is placed. If this precipitate were placed in a watch glass or weighing paper, the water would only evaporate and would not contaminate the sample.

What is the oxidation number of HCLO4?
ki77a [65]
E.g. in H3PO4 (O, -2).
8. The sum of the oxidation states of all the atoms in a species must be equal to net charge on the species. e.g. Net Charge of HClO4 = 0, i.e. [+1(H)+7(Cl)-2<span>*4(O)] = 0.</span>
