<span>granite better than marble for a statue in a city, because marble reacts with acid, when Granite does not and it is one of the strongest minerals in the mohs scale therefore granite is a better solution for a city centre statue</span>

Granite is stronger, and it doesn't grow mold in the rain. It also looks better than marble and is easier to carve.

The electron configuration that belongs to the atom with the lowest first ionization energy is?
sasho [114]

The electron configuration that belongs to the atom with the lowest first ionization energy is francium.

<h3>What is ionization energy? </h3>

Ionization energy is defined as the minimum amount of energy required to remove the most loosely electron present in outermost shell.

<h3>Ionization energy across period</h3>

Ionization energy increase as we move from left to right in the period. This can be explained as when we move from left to right along period new electron is added to the same shell which increase the nuclear charge. Hence results int he decrease in size. Due to this decrease in size more energy is required to remove electron from outermost shell.

<h3>Ionization energy along group</h3>

Ionization energy decrease as we move from top to bottom along group. This can be explained as we move from top to bottom new electron is added to new shell. Due to addition of new shell the size of atom increases which results in the decrease in the nuclear charge. Due to this less amount of energy is needed to remove an electron.

Thus, we concluded that the electron configuration that belongs to the atom with the lowest first ionization energy is francium.

Debora [2.8K]

The complete balanced chemical equation is: 
4 NH3 (g) + 5 O2 (g) → 4 NO (g) + 6 H2O (g) 

In statement form: 4mol NH3 reacts with 5 mol O2 to produce 6 mol H2O 

First let us find for the limiting reactant: 
>molar mass NH3 = 17 g/mol 
moles NH3 = 54/17 = 3.18 mol NH3 
This will react with 3.18*5/4 = 3.97 mol O2 

>molar mass O2 = 32g/mol 
moles O2 = 54/32 = 1.69 mol O2 
We have insufficient O2 therefore this is the limiting reactant 

From the balanced equation: 
For every 5.0 mol O2, we get 6.0 mol H2O, therefore

moles H2O formed =  1.69 mol O2  * 6/5 = 2.025 mol
Molar mass H2O = 18g/mol 
<span>mass H2O formed = 2.025*18 = 36.45 grams H2O produced</span>

How many moles are in 297g of nh3?<br><br> Please show work, will give brainliest.
rusak2 [61]

Answer:

17.5moles

Explanation:

The number of moles in a substance can be calculated by using the formula;

Number of moles (n) = mass (m) ÷ molar mass (MM)

According to this question, mass of ammonia (NH3) = 297g

Molar Mass of NH3 = 14 + 1(3)

= 17g/mol

n = 297/17

n = 17.47

Number of moles of NH3 = 17.5moles
