According to an article dated back in February 8, 1992 which is entitled, “Science: Stardust is made of diamonds” on a website called newscientist (https://www.newscientist.com/article/mg13318073-000-science-stardust-is-made-of-diamonds/), American astronomers believed that diamonds are made in supernova explosions. It was said that the diamonds were the foundation of uncommon combinations of isotopes found in some meteorites. Donald Clayton of Clemson University in South Carolina suggested that the weightiest isotopes were more common in meteorites for the reason that the rare gases shaped in the neutron-rich outcome of a supernova explosion. Clayton also said, “the observed mixture of isotopes could have been produced only during the collapse of a massive star to form a neutron star”. This happens in a Type II explosion, for example the Supernova 1987A in the Large Magellanic Cloud. And rare gases like xenon become stuck in both weighty and light isotopes after the ejected gas from such a supernova cools down enough to create dust. The existence of the diamonds with these unusual gases in meteorites infers an alike source. Some of the carbon in the supernova fragments produces ordinary graphite dust, whereas some produces diamond dust. Considerable amount of stardust may be made of diamonds, if Clayton was not mistaken.
When it changes phases energy is needednto break down the bonds so that is can change state from one phase to another.
The CaCO3 produced if 47.5 moles of NH3 produced is calculated as follows
CaCN2 +3H2O = CaCO3 + 2NH3
by use of mole ratio between CaCO3 to NH3 which is 1:2 the moles of CaCO3 is therefore = 47.5 /2= 23.75 moles
mass of CaCO3 is therefore = moles x molar mass
= 23.75 moles x 100g/mol= 2375 grams which is approximate 2380 grams(answer 6)
