What is the formula for gunpowder

Chemistry
1 answer:
mrs_skeptik [129]3 years ago
3 0

Here is the chemical equation for gun powder, in it’s simple form:

<span>2 KNO3 + S + 3 C → K2S + N2 + 3 CO2.</span>

This is the same simplified formula, only balanced:

<span>10 KNO3 + 3 S + 8 C → 2 K2CO3 + 3 K2SO4 + 6 CO2 + 5 N2.</span>

How do I do molarity equations?
ipn [44]
To calculate the molarity of a solution, you divide the moles of solute by the volume of the solution expressed in liters. Note that the volume is in liters of solution and not liters of solvent. When a molarity is reported, the unit is the symbol M and is read as “molar”.
I hope this helped :)

Would Li CO2 and LiOH produce the same colors? Explain your thinking.
saul85 [17]

Answer:

Lithium hydroxide is a base.

Carbon dioxide is the anhydride of the carbonic acid, H₂CO₃.

Therefore, the reaction awaited is a typical neutralization reaction with the formation of a salt and water.

2LiOH + CO₂ → Li₂CO₃ + H₂O

So, 2*20 = 40 moles of LiOH react with 20 moles of CO₂.

Molar Mass of LiOH = 23.95 g/mol

So, 40 * 23.95 = 958 g

Which is the limiting reagent in the following reaction given that you start with 15.5 g of Na2S and 12.1 g CuSO4? Reaction: Na2
NemiM [27]

Answer:

CuSO4

Explanation:

Na2S + CuSO4 → Na2SO4 + CuS

The reaction is balanced (same number of elements in each side)

To determine limiting reagent you need to know the moles you have of each.

Molar mass Na2S = 23 * 2 + 32 = 78

Molar mass CuSO4 = 63.5 + 32 + 16 * 4 = 159.5

Na2S mole = 15.5 / 78 = 0.2

CuSO4 mole = 12.1/159.5 = 0.076

*Remember mole = mass / MM

With that information now you have to divide each moles by its respective stoichiometric coefficient

Na2S stoichiometric coefficient : 1

Na2S : 0.2 / 1 = 0.2

CuSO4 stoichiometric coefficient: 1

CuSO4: 0.076 / 1 = 0.076

The smaller number between them its the limiting reagent, CuSO4

Does nitrogen triiodide dipole?.
Dmitriy789 [7]
Answer: Yes

Explanation:

due to the nitrogen atom and its lone pair is in opposition to the moment associated with the three polar N-F bonds in NF3. NCl3 also has a small dipole moment
