Chemistry

Answer:

H₂O is the limiting reactant

Theoretical yield of 240 g Al₂O₃ and 14 g H₂

Explanation:

Find how many moles of one reactant is needed to completely react with the other.

6.5 mol Al × (3 mol H₂O / 2 mol Al) = 9.75 mol H₂O

We need 9.75 mol of H₂O to completely react with 6.5 mol of Al.  But we only have 7.2 mol of H₂O.  Therefore, H₂O is the limiting reactant.

Now find the theoretical yield:

7.2 mol H₂O × (1 mol Al₂O₃ / 3 mol H₂O) × (102 g Al₂O₃ / mol Al₂O₃) ≈ 240 g Al₂O₃

7.2 mol H₂O × (3 mol H₂ / 3 mol H₂O) × (2 g H₂ / mol H₂) ≈ 14 g H₂

Since the data was given to two significant figures, we must round our answer to two significant figures as well.

A student ran the following reaction in the laboratory at 671 K: 2NH3(g) N2(g) + 3H2(g) When she introduced 7.33×10-2 moles of N
vaieri [72.5K]

Answer:

Kc = 8.05x10⁻³

Explanation:

This is the equilibrium:

                 2NH₃(g)   ⇄     N₂(g)     +     3H₂(g)

Initially       0.0733

React         0.0733α          α/2                3/2α

Eq     0.0733 - 0.0733α    α/2                0.103

We introduced 0.0733 moles of ammonia, initially. So in the reaction "α" amount react, as the ratio is 2:1, and 2:3, we can know the moles that formed products.

Now we were told that in equilibrum we have a [H₂] of 0.103, so this data can help us to calculate α.

3/2α = 0.103

α = 0.103 . 2/3 ⇒ 0.0686

So, concentration in equilibrium are

NH₃ = 0.0733 - 0.0733 . 0.0686 = 0.0682

N₂ = 0.0686/2 = 0.0343

So this moles, are in a volume of 1L, so they are molar concentrations.

Let's make Kc expression:

Kc= [N₂] . [H₂]³ / [NH₃]²

Kc = 0.0343 . 0.103³ / 0.0682² = 8.05x10⁻³
