Well first off, the inch of mercury is a unit of measure for pressure. It mostly used for barometric pressure in weather reports, refrigeration, and aviation in the US.<span />

If 125.0g of nitrogen is reacted with 125.0g of hydrogen, what is the theoretical yield of the reaction? What is the excess reac

MakcuM [25]

Answer:

Hydrogen is the excess reactant

Nitrogen is the limiting reactant

151.6g is theoretical yield

Explanation:

The reaction of N₂ with H₂ to produce NH₃ is:

N₂ + 3H₂ → 2NH₃

To find theoretical yield we need to determine limiting reactant with the moles of each gas as follows:

Nitrogen -Molar mass: 28g/mol-

125.0g * (1mol / 28g) = 4.46 moles

Hydrogen -Molar mass: 2g/mol-

125.0g * (1mol / 2g) = 62.5 moles of hydrogen

For a complete reaction of 4.46 moles of N2 there are needed:

4.46 moles N2 * (3moles H2 / 1mol N2) = 13.38 moles of hydrogen

As there are 62.5 moles of hydrogen:

<h3>Hydrogen is the excess reactant</h3><h3>Nitrogen is the limiting reactant</h3><h3 />

With nitrogen, the limiting reactant, we determine theoretical moles (Assuming 100% of the reaction occurs) and theoretical yield (In mass):

4.46 moles N2 * (2moles NH3 / 1mol N2) = 8.92 moles of ammonia

As molar mass of ammonia is 17g/mol:

8.92 moles of ammonia * (17g/mol) =

<h3>151.6g is theoretical yield</h3>

NISA [10]

Answer:

C. involve the attraction of opposite charges

Explanation:

<em>Ionic bonding</em> involves the attraction between <em>oppositely charged ions</em>, as in Na⁺ Cl⁻.

<em>Covalent bonding</em> involves the attraction between <em>negatively charged electrons and positivey charged nuclei</em>, as in a C-H bond.

A is <em>wrong</em>. Ionic bonding involves the transfer of electrons.

B is <em>wrong</em>. Covalent bonding involves the sharing of electrons.

D is <em>wrong</em>. Ionic bonds are usually stronger than covalent bonds.

How many atoms are found in 3.45g of CO2?

USPshnik [31]

<u>Answer:</u> The number of carbon and oxygen atoms in the given amount of carbon dioxide is $4.72\times 10^{22}$ and $9.44\times 10^{22}$ respectively

<u>Explanation:</u>

To calculate the number of moles, we use the equation:

$\text{Number of moles}=\frac{\text{Given mass}}{\text{Molar mass}}$

Given mass of carbon dioxide gas = 3.45 g

Molar mass of carbon dioxide gas = 44 g/mol

Putting values in above equation, we get:

$\text{Moles of carbon dioxide gas}=\frac{3.45g}{44g/mol}=0.0784mol$

1 mole of carbon dioxide gas contains 1 mole of carbon and 2 moles of oxygen atoms.

According to mole concept:

1 mole of a compound contains $6.022\time 10^{23}$ number of molecules

So, 0.0784 moles of carbon dioxide gas will contain $1\times 0.0784\times 6.022\times 10^{23}=4.72\times 10^{22}$ number of carbon atoms and $2\times 0.0784\times 6.022\times 10^{23}=9.44\times 10^{22}$ number of oxygen atoms

Hence, the number of carbon and oxygen atoms in the given amount of carbon dioxide is $4.72\times 10^{22}$ and $9.44\times 10^{22}$ respectively
