Answer:

mass of C₂H₄N₂ = 3.472 g

Explanation:

We have the following chemical reaction:

3 CH₄ + 5 CO₂ + 8 NH₃ → 4 C₂H₄N₂ + 10 H₂O

Using the masses given by the problem we calculate the number of moles for each reactant:

number of moles = mass / molecular weight

number of moles of CO₂ = 13.2 / 44 = 0.3 moles

number of moles of NH₃ = 2.18 / 17 = 0.13 moles

number of moles of CH₄ = 17 / 16 = 1.06 moles

We can see that the limiting reactant is ammonia NH₃. Now we can devise the following reasoning:

if         8 moles of NH₃ produces 4 moles of C₂H₄N₂

then    0.13 moles of NH₃ produces X moles of C₂H₄N₂

X = (0.13 × 4) / 8 = 0.062 moles of C₂H₄N₂

mass of C₂H₄N₂ = number of moles × molecular weight

mass of C₂H₄N₂ = 0.062 × 56 = 3.472 g

Describe the composition of humus and why it is an effective organic fertilizer.
asambeis [7]

Answer:

Humus, which ranges in colour from brown to black, consists of about 60 percent carbon, 6 percent nitrogen, and smaller amounts of phosphorus and sulfur. As humus decomposes, its components are changed into forms usable by plants.
