Although birds' eggs appear to be fragile, they are in fact extremely robust. The oval shape applies the same rules of engineering as an arched bridge; the convex surface can withstand considerable pressure without breaking.

Ammonia is produced from the reaction of nitrogen and hydrogen according to the following balanced equation:
nignag [31]

Answer:  1) Maximum mass of ammonia  198.57g  

2) The element that would be completely consumed is the N2

3) Mass that would keep unremained, is the one of  the excess Reactant, that means the H2 with 3,44g

Explanation:

  • In order to calculate the Mass of ammonia , we first check the Equation is actually Balance:

N2(g) + 3H2(g) ⟶2NH3(g)

Both equal amount of atoms side to side.

  • Now we verify which reagent is the limiting one by comparing the amount of product formed with each reactant, and the one with the lowest number is the limiting reactant. ( Keep in mind that we use the  molecular weight of 28.01 g/mol N2; 2.02 g/mol H2; 17.03g/mol NH3)

Moles of ammonia produced with 163.3g N2(g) ⟶ 163.3g N2(g) x (1mol N2(g)/ 28.01 g N2(g) )x (2 mol NH3(g) /1 mol N2(g)) = 11.66 mol NH3

Moles of ammonia produced with 38.77 g H2⟶  38.77 g H2 x ( 1mol H2/ 2.02 g H2 ) x (2 mol NH3 /3 mol H2 ) = 12.79 mol NH3

  • As we can see the amount of NH3 formed with the N2 is the lowest one , therefore the limiting reactant is the N2 that means, N2 is the element  that would be completey consumed, and the maximum mass of ammonia will be produced from it.
  • We proceed calculating the maximum mass of NH3 from the 163.3g of N2.

11.66  mol NH3 x (17.03 g NH3 /1mol NH3) = 198.57 g NH3

  • In order to estimate the mass of excess reagent, we start by calculating how much H2 reacts with the giving N2:

163.3g N2 x (1mol N2/28.01 g N2) x ( 3 mol H2 / 1 mol N2)x (2.02 g H2/ 1 mol H2) = 35.33 g H2

That means that only 35.33 g H2 will react with 163.3g N2 however we were giving 38.77g of  H2, thus, 38.77g - 35.33 g = 3.44g H2 is left

Describe how you would use a calorimeter to determine the specific heat capacity of a metal
vovikov84 [41]
<span>My only guess is obtain a metal and heat it in a boiling water bath (of known temperature) this will be your initial temperature. Now obtain a calorimeter cup with water of known temperature as well. Place the metal into the calorimeter cup and record the temperature after 5 minutes. You now have delta T, mass of the metal, and Q. Solve for C.

Hope this helps xox :)</span>
