How many grams of NH3 can be produced from 2.30 mol of N2 and excess H2.
MrRa [10]
<h3>Answer:</h3>

78.34 g

<h3>Explanation:</h3>

From the question we are given;

Moles of Nitrogen gas as 2.3 moles

we are required to calculate the mass of NH₃ that may be reproduced.

<h3>Step 1: Writing the balanced equation for the reaction </h3>

The Balanced equation for the reaction is;

   N₂(g) + 3H₂(g) → 2NH₃(g)

<h3>Step 2: Calculating the number of moles of NH₃</h3>

From the equation 1 mole of nitrogen gas reacts to produce 2 moles of NH₃

Therefore, the mole ratio of N₂ to NH₃ is 1 : 2

Thus, Moles of NH₃ = Moles of N₂ × 2

                                  = 2.3 moles × 2

                                  = 4.6 moles

<h3>Step 3: Calculating the mass of ammonia produced </h3>

Mass = Moles × molar mass

Molar mass of ammonia gas = 17.031 g/mol

Therefore;

Mass = 4.6 moles × 17.031 g/mol

         = 78.3426 g

         = 78.34 g

Thus, the mass of NH₃ produced is 78.34 g

Magnesium has three common isotopes.
sladkih [1.3K]

Answer:

Explanation:

percentage abundance of third isotope = 100 - ( 78.900 + 10.009)

= 11.091 %

Atomic mass

24.1687 x .789 + 25.4830 x .10009 + 24.305 x .11091  

19.069 + 2.5506 + 2.69566

= 24.3153 amu

Lab report Motion: 3. What methods are you using to test this (or each) hypothesis?
nadya68 [22]

Answer: You can increase the weight, then test the speed, and make the weight normal and test the speed, and mark which one travels faster.

Explanation: This would test your hypothesis by comparing the speeds of the cars when more mass is added. Calculating the difference of the speed with more mass, and the speed with normal mass would give you your answer. A positive number would prove your hypothesis and a negative number would disprove it.

What kinds of information does a structural formula reveal about the compound it represents
stiv31 [10]

Answer:

In organic chemistry, the structural formula shows the bonding and general layout of the molecule.

Explanation:

It can also help in naming the molecule, as many compounds with the same molecular formula have different structural formulas, for example cycloalkanes and alkenes, or aldehydes and ketones.

It tells us about the constituents of the compound, or in other words, the functional groups present. This enables us to predict what kind of properties the compound has and what kind of reactions it can undergo.

It can also help us determine the stereochemistry (shape and spatial orientation) of the compound. This is especially important in organic chemistry and organic chemstry, since certain important reactions will proceed if and only if a molecule with the right shape is employed.
