How many molecules of F2 react with 66.6 g NH3 ? (stoichiometry)
stiks02 [169]
<h3>Answer:</h3>

5.89 × 10^23 molecules of F₂

<h3>Explanation:</h3>

The equation for the reaction between fluorine (F₂) and ammonia (NH₃) is given by;

5F₂ + 2NH₃ → N₂F₄ + 6 HF

We are given 66.6 g NH₃

We are required to determine the number of fluorine molecules

<h3>Step 1: Moles of Ammonia </h3>

Moles = Mass ÷ Molar mass

Molar mass of ammonia = 17.031 g/mol

Moles of NH₃ = 66.6 g ÷ 17.031 g/mol

                      = 3.911 moles

<h3>Step 2: Moles of Fluorine </h3>

From the equation 5 moles of Fluorine reacts with 2 moles of ammonia

Therefore,

Moles of fluorine = Moles of Ammonia × 5/2

                            = 3.911 moles × 5/2

                           = 9.778 moles

<h3>Step 3: Number of molecules of fluorine </h3>

We know that 1 mole of a compound contains number of molecules equivalent to the Avogadro's number, 6.022 × 10^23 molecules

Therefore;

1 mole of F₂ = 6.022 × 10^23 molecules

Thus,

9.778 moles of F₂ = 9.778 moles × 6.022 × 10^23 molecules/mole

                              = 5.89 × 10^23 molecules

Therefore, the number of fluorine molecules needed is 5.89 × 10^23 molecules

What are the two rules for deciding the number of significant digits in the answer to a calculation?
8090 [49]
<span>(1) For multiplication and division, you determine the number of significant digits in each number in your problem. The significant digits of your answer is determined by the number with fewer digits. (2) For addition and subtraction, you determine the place value of each number in your problem. The significant digits of the answer is determined by the number that is least precise.</span>
