Select true or false: substitute natural gas can be synthesized by passing carbon monoxide and hydrogen over ni or co at 400°c.

1 answer:

3 0

This statement is "False".
Synthetic natural gas is usually created from coal. This gas acts as a substitute to natural gas. It must contain at least 95% methane. The intermediate step of creating synthetic gas is known as the synthesis gas production which is done through steps of gasification (using carbon and oxygen) followed by reactions of water gas shift and methanation (using carbon monoxide and steam)

Moles of Zn(NO3)2 in 131.50g of this substance.

Degger [83]

number of moles= mass / molecular mass
mass=131.50g
molecular mass of Zn(NO3)2 =189.39 g/mol
number of moles = 131.50 g/189.39 g/mol =0.69433 mol

Below are the reduction half reactions for chemolithoautotrophic nitrification, where ammonia is a source of electrons and energ

SSSSS [86.1K]

Answer: The molecules of oxygen gas that will be reduced to water are 42 molecules

Explanation:

We are given:

$E^o_{(NO_2^-/NH_4)}=-0.41V\\E^o_{(O_2/H_2O)}=0.82V$

The substance having highest positive $E^o$ potential will always get reduced and will undergo reduction reaction. Here, oxygen will undergo reduction reaction will get reduced.

$NH_4$ will undergo oxidation reaction and will get oxidized.

Substance getting oxidized always act as anode and the one getting reduced always act as cathode.

The half reactions follows:

Oxidation half reaction: $NH_4\rightarrow NO_2^-+6e^-$ ( × 4)

Reduction half reaction: $O_2+4e^-\rightarrow 2H_2O$ ( × 6)

Overall reaction: $4NH_4+6O_2\rightarrow 4NO_2^-+12H_2O$

We are given:

Molecules of $NH_4$ = 28

By Stoichiometry of the reaction:

4 molecules of $NH_4$ reacts with 6 molecules of oxygen gas

So, 28 molecules of $NH_4$ will react with = $\frac{6}{4}\times 28=42$ molecules of oxygen gas

Hence, the molecules of oxygen gas that will be reduced to water are 42 molecules

How does mechanical energy depend on other forms of energy??

Ksenya-84 [330]

Answer:

Other forms of energy can convert to mechanical energy

Explanation:

For example the electric or magnetic energy in a motor can convert to mechanical energy, or another example is when you put two magnets together they will clip together due to the magnetic energy that they have.
