There are 3 equations involved in manufacturing Nitric Acid from Ammonia.

First the ammonia is oxidized:
4NH3 + 5O2 = 4NO + 6H2O

Then for the absorption of the nitrogen oxides.
2NO + O2 = N2O4

Lastly, the N2O4 is further oxidized into Nitric acid.
3N2O4 + 2H2O = 4HNO3 + 2NO

Then run stoichiometry through these equations.
The first equation produces roughly 271,722,938 grams of NO
The second equation produces roughly 416,606,944 grams of N2O4
The last equation produces roughly 380,412,294 grams of HNO3 (nitric acid)

Convert the exact number back into tons, and your answer is: 419.332775 tons.

Rounded, I'm going to say that's 419.33 tons.
Hope this helps! :)

Also, it seems that commercially, Nitric Acid is commonly made by bubbling NO2 into water, rather than using ammonia.

explain using diagrams how potassium forms the compound potassium flouride when it reacts with flourine

Katarina [22]

Answer:

The answer to your question is given below.

Explanation:

Potassium (K) has 19 electrons with electronic configuration of 2, 8, 8, 1.

Fluorine (F) has 9 electrons with electronic configuration of 2, 7.

Fluorine needs 1 electron to complete it's octet configuration.

Hence, potassium (K), will lose 1 electron to fluorine (F) to form potassium ion (K+) with electronic configuration of 2, 8, 8. The fluorine atom (F) will receive the 1 electron from potassium to form the fluoride ion (F-) with electronic configuration of 2, 8.

Elemental exonium (not a real element) consists of two major isotopes abundance mass 18% 98 amu 82% 112 amu what is the atomic w

pishuonlain [190]

In general chemistry, isotopes are a group of substances that belong to the same element. An element is characterized in the periodic table by their atomic number, which is the number of protons in an atom. Therefore, these substances have the same atomic numbers, but differ in mass numbers. Mass number is the sum of the number of protons and neutrons in the nucleus of an atom.

To determine the atomic weight of an element, you take the average weight of all the existent isotopes of that said element. The calculation would require to multiply the exact mass of the isotope to its abundance. Then, sum them all up.

Atomic weight = 98(0.18) + 112(0.82)
Atomic weight = 109.48 amu

What is the formula of this<br> inorganic salt hydrate?

barxatty [35]

Salt hydrates are an important class of PCMs. An inorganic salt hydrate (hydrated salt or hydrate) is an ionic compound in which the ions attract a number of water molecules, which are then trapped inside the crystal lattice. A hydrated salt has the generic formula MxNy. nH2O.
