Answer: 4 moles

Explanation:

$6Li+N_2\rightarrow 2Li_3N$

From the balanced chemical equation, it can be seen that 6 moles of lithium react with 1 mole of nitrogen to give 2 moles of lithium nitride.

Now as nitrogen is in excess, lithium is the limiting reagent as it limits the formation of products.

As 6 moles of lithium produce 2 moles of lithium nitride.

12 moles of lithium will produce= $\frac{2}{6}\times 12=4moles$ of lithium nitride.

The balanced reaction that describes the reaction between lithium and nitrogen to produce lithium nitride is expressed N2 + 6Li = 2Li3N. Hence for 12 moles of lithium given, there are 4 moles of lithium nitride produced. Answer to this problem is 4 moles.

32,500 joules are used to boil a sample of water at its melting point what is the mass of the water?

Ivenika [448]

Answer:

43.18 gm

Explanation:

Heat of fusion of water at 0° C is 334 j/gm

then you have to heat the water to boiling point (100 C)

specific heat of water is 4.186 j/g-c

x = grams of water

x ( 334 + 4.186 (100) ) = 32500

x = 43.18 gm

Consider the following reaction: 2CH3OH(g)  2CH4(g) + O2(g) ΔH = +252.8 kJ a) Calculate the amount of heat transferred when 24.

denpristay [2]

Answer:

For a: The amount of heat transferred for the given amount of methanol is 94.6736 kJ.

For b: The mass of methane gas produced will be 10.384 g.

Explanation:

For the given chemical reaction:

$2CH_3OH(g)\rightarrow 2CH_4(g)+O_2(g);\Delta H=+252.8kJ$

For a:

To calculate the number of moles, we use the equation:

$\text{Number of moles}=\frac{\text{Given mass}}{\text{Molar mass}}$ ......(1)

Given mass of methanol = 24.0 g

Molar mass of methanol = 32.04 g/mol

Putting values in above equation, we get:

$\text{Moles of methanol}=\frac{24.0g}{32.04g/mol}=0.749mol$

By Stoichiometry of the reaction:

For every 2 moles of methanol, the amount of heat transferred is +252.8 kJ.

So, for every 0.749 moles of methanol, the amount of heat transferred will be = $\frac{252.8}{2}\times 0.749=94.6736kJ$

Hence, the amount of heat transferred for the given amount of methanol is 94.6736 kJ.

For b:

By Stoichiometry of the reaction:

252.8 kJ of energy is absorbed when 2 moles of methane gas is produced.

So, 82.1 kJ of energy will be absorbed when = $\frac{2}{252.8}\times 82.1=0.649mol$ of methane gas is produced.

Now, calculating the mass of methane gas from equation 1, we get:

Molar mass of methane gas = 16 g/mol

Moles of methane gas = 0.649 moles

Putting values in equation 1, we get:

$0.649mol=\frac{\text{Mass of methane gas}}{16g/mol}\\\\\text{Mass of methane}=10.384g$

Hence, the mass of methane gas produced will be 10.384 g.

7. A cyclist starting from rest accelerates at a rate of 6 m/s until she reaches 30 m/s. How long

Hunter-Best [27]

Answer:

Explanation:

The given values are:

a= 6m/s²

u= 0 m/s

v = 30 m/s

t= ?

The formula is :

$a=\frac{v-u}{t}$

thus,

$t=\frac{v-u}{a}\\t=\frac{30-0}{6}\\t= 5 seconds$
