The scientific meaning of salt is an ionic compound that is formed when an acid and a base reaction take place and is neutralized.
The common meaning of salt (table salt) is specifically the organic mineral of sodium chloride (NaCl) and is digestible.
Ionic salts are often not digestible (or not commonly digested, anyway)

Fritz Haber, a German chemist, discovered a way to synthesize ammonia gas (NH3) by combining hydrogen and nitrogen gases accordi
Westkost [7]
1) Write the balanced equation to state the molar ratios:

<span>3H2(g) + N2(g) → 2NH3(g)

=> molar ratios = 3 mol H2 : 1 mol N2 : 2 mol NH3

What volume of nitrogen is needed to produce 250.0 L of ammonia gas at STP?

First, convert the 250.0 L of NH3 to number of moles at STP .

Use the fact that 1 mole of gas at STP occupies 22.4 L

=> 250.0 L * 1mol/22.4 L = 11.16 L

Second, use the molar ratio to find the number of moles of N2 that produces 11.16 L of NH3

=> 11.16 L NH3 * [1 mol N2 / 2 mol NH3] = 5.58 mol N2

Third, convert 5.58 mol N2 into liters at STP

=> 5.58 mol N2 * [22.4 L/mol] = 124.99 liters

Answer: 124,99 liters

What volume of hydrogen is needed to produce 2.50 mol NH3 at STP?
 

First, find the number of moles of H2 that produce 2.50 mol by using the molar ratios:

2.50 mol NH3 * [3mol H2 / 2 mol NH3] = 3.75 mol H2

Second, convert the number of moles to liters of gas at STP:

3.75 mol * 22.4 L/mol =  84 liters of H2

Answer: 84 liters

1. What does it mean for a substance to be soluble?​
Anni [7]

Answer:

Solubility is a chemical property referring to the ability for a given substance, the solute, to dissolve in a solvent. It is measured in terms of the maximum amount of solute dissolved in a solvent at equilibrium. ... Certain substances are soluble in all proportions with a given solvent, such as ethanol in water.

Determine the relative amounts (in terms of volume fractions) for a 15 wt% sn-85 wt% pb alloy at 100°c. the densities of tin an
nikdorinn [45]
Volume fraction = volume of the element / volume of the alloy

Volume = density * mass

Base: 100 grams of alloy

mass of tin = 15 grams

mass of lead = 85 grams

volume = mass / density

Volume of tin = 15g / 7.29 g/cm^3 = 2.06 cm^3

Volume of lead = 85 g / 11.27 g/cm^3 = 7.54 cm^3

Volume fraction of tin = 2.06 cm^3 / (2.06 cm^3 + 7.54 cm^3) = 0.215

Volume fraction of lead = 7.54 cm^3 / (2.06 cm^3 + 7.54 cm^3) = 0.785

As you can verify the sum of the two volume fractions equals 1: 0.215 + 0.785 = 1.000

How many moles of H2O are needed to produce 5.6 mol of NaOH?<br> Na2O + H2O --&gt; 2NaOH
navik [9.2K]

Answer: 2.8 moles

Explanation:

The balanced equation below shows that 1 mole of sodium oxide reacts with 1 mole of water to form 2 moles of sodium hydroxide respectively.

Na2O + H2O --> 2NaOH

1 mole of H2O = 2 moles of NaOH

Let Z moles of H2O = 5.6 mole of NaOH

To get the value of Z, cross multiply

5.6 moles x 1 mole= Z x 2 moles

5.6 = 2Z

Divide both sides by 2

5.6/2 = 2Z/2

2.8 = Z

Thus, 2.8moles of H2O are needed to produce 5.6 mol of NaOH
