Answer:

Chemical equation: NH₃(g) + O₂(g) → NO(g) + H₂O(l).

Oxidation reaction: N⁻³ → N⁺² + 5e⁻ /×4.

Reduction reaction: O₂⁰ + 4e⁻ → 2O⁻² /×5.

Oxidation reaction: 4N⁻³ → 4N⁺² + 20e⁻.

Reduction reaction: 5O₂⁰ + 20e⁻ → 10O⁻² /×5.

Balanced chemical equation: 4NH₃(g) + 5O₂(g) → 4NO(g) + 6H₂O(l).

Ammonia (NH₃) reacts with oxygen (O₂) and form nitrogen(II) oxide (NO) and water (H₂O). Catalyst is this reaction is platinum (Pt).

This is combustion reaction.

Answer:

Ammonia gas reacts with oxygen gas.

Nitric oxide gas and liquid water are produced.

Platinum is used as a catalyst.

The equation is unbalanced because the number of hydrogen atoms is not the same on both sides of the equation.

Backpackers often use canisters of white gas to fuel a cooking stove’s burner. If one canister contains 1.45 L of white gas, and

rusak2 [61]

1 L ------- 1000 cm³
1.45 L ----- ???

1.45 * 1000 = 1450 cm³ ( volume )

Density = 0.710 g/cm³

mass = in Kg

m = D * V

m = 0.710 * 1450

m = 1029.5 g

1 Kg ------- 1000 g
kg -------- 1029.5 g

mass = 1029.5 / 1000

mass = 1.0295 Kg

hope this helps!

A gas containing 80% CH4 and 20% He is sent through a quart/ diffusion tube (see Figure P8.8) to recover the helium, Twenty perc

For a gas containing 80% CH4 and 20% He is sent through a quart diffusion tube, the composition is mathematically given as

%He=12.5%

%CH4=87.5%

<h3>What is the composition of the waste gas if 100 kg moles of gas are processed per minute?</h3>

Generally, the equation for the Material balance is mathematically given as

F=R+W

Therefore

100=0.20*1000+W

W=80kmol/min

In conclusion, waste gas compose

2.0/100*100=50/100*20+%*80

Hence

%He=12.5%

%CH4=87.5%
