Answer:

NH3 is the limiting reactant

The % yield is 36.1 %

Explanation:

<u>Step 1: </u>Data given

Mass of NH3 = 2.15 grams

Mass of O2 = 3.23 grams

Molar mass of NH3 = 17.03 g/mol

Molar mass of O2 = 32 g/mol

volume of N2 produced = 0.550 L

Temperature = 295 K

Pressure = 1.00 atm

<u>Step 2:</u> The balanced equation:

4NH3 (aq) + 3O2 (g) → 2 N2 (g) + 6H2O (l)

<u>Step 3:</u> Calculate moles of NH3

Moles NH3 = Mass NH3 / Molar Mass NH3

Moles NH3 = 2.15 grams / 17.03 g/mol

Moles NH3 = 0.126 moles

<u>Step 4:</u> Calculate moles of O2

Moles O2 = 3.23 grams / 32 g/mol

Moles O2 = 0.101 moles

<u>Step 5: </u>Calculate the limiting reactant

For 4 moles NH3 consumed, we need 3 moles of O2 to produce, 2 moles of N2 and 6 moles of H2O

NH3 is the limiting reactant. It will completely be consumed ( 0.126 moles).

O2 is in excess, there will be 3/4 * 0.126 = 0.0945 moles consumed

There will remain 0.101 - 0.945 = 0.0065 moles of O2

<u>Step 6:</u> Calculate moles of N2

For 4 moles NH3 consumed, we need 3 moles of O2 to produce, 2 moles of N2 and 6 moles of H2O

For 4 moles NH3 , we'll have 2 moles of N2 produced

For 0.126 moles NH3 consumed, we'll have 0.063 moles of N2 produced.

<u>Step 7</u>: Calculate volume of N2 produced

p*V = n*R*T

⇒ with p = the pressure of the gas = 1.00 atm

⇒ with V = the volume = TO BE DETERMINED

⇒ with n = the number of moles N2 = 0.063 moles

⇒ with R = the gasconstant = 0.08206 L*atm/K*mol

⇒ with T = the temperature = 295

V = (nRT)/p

V = (0.063*0.08206*295)/1

V = 1.525 L = theoretical yield

<u>Step 8:</u> Calculate the % yield

% yield = actual yield / theoretical yield

% yield = (0.550 L / 1.525 L)*100%

% yield = 36.1 %

neonofarm [45]

Answer:

1. CO₂ → C + O₂

2. Fe₂ + O₂ → 2FeO

3. 2Al + 3CuO→  Al₂O₃  +  3Cu

Explanation:

1. 1 mol of CO₂ decomposes to 1 mol of C and 1 mol of oxygem

2. 1 mol of Fe₂ reacts with 1 mol of oxygen to produce 2 moles of iron (II) oxide

3. 2 moles of Al, reacts with 3 moles of cupper(II) oxide to produce 1 mol of aluminum dioxide and 3 moles of cupper
