This question is hard but I found the answer from merit nation
According to law of definite proportion, for a compound, elements always combine in fixed ratio by mass.
The formula of compound remains the same, let it be a_{x}b_{y} where, a and b are two different elements.
Since, the ratio of mass remains the same , calculate the ratio of masses of element a and b in both cases
\frac{a}{b}=\frac{15}{35}=\frac{10}{y}
rearranging,
y=\frac{10\times 35}{15}=23.3
Thus, mass of b produced will be 23.3 g.
C. Include changes that alter the identity of a substance.
Answer:
Mass of C₂H₄N₂ produced = 3.64 g
Explanation:
The balanced chemical equation for the reaction is given below:
3CH₄ (g) + 5CO₂ (g) + 8NH₃ (g) → 4C₂H₄N₂ (g) + 10H₂O (g)
From the equation, 3 moles of CH₄ reacts with 5 moles of CO₂ and 8 moles of NH₃ to produce 4 moles of C₂H₄N₂ and 10 moles of H₂O
Molar masses of the compounds are given below below:
CH₄ = 16 g/mol; CO₂ = 44 g/mol; NH3 = 17 g/mol; C₂H₄N₂ = 56 g/mol; H₂O g/mol
Comparing the mole ratios of the reacting masses;
CH₄ = 1.65/16 = 0.103
CO₂ = 13.5/44 = 0.307
NH₃ = 2.21/17 = 0.130
converting to whole number ratios by dividing with the smallest ratio
CH₄ = 0.103/0.103 = 1
CO₂ = 0.307/0.103 = 3
NH₃ = 0.130/0.103 = 1.3
Multiplying through with 5
CH₄ = 1 × 5 = 5
CO₂ = 3 × 5 = 15
NH₃ = 1.3 × 5 = 6.5
Therefore, the limiting reactant is NH₃
8 × 17 g (136 g) of NH₃ reacts to produce 4 × 56 g (224 g) of C₂H₄N₂
Therefore, 2.21 g of NH₃ will produce (2.21 × 224)/136 g of C₂H₄N₂ = 3.64 g of C₂H₄N₂
Mass of C₂H₄N₂ produced = 3.64 g
