Answer:

The answer to your question is letter D

Explanation:

Data

mass of Li = 4.5 g

mass of N₂ = 4.5 g

limiting reactant = ?

Reaction

                         6Li (s)   +   N₂ (g)   ⇒  2Li₃N

This reaction is balanced

Process

1.- Calculate the molecular mass of the reactants

Li = 7 x 6 = 42g

N = 14 x 2 = 28 g

Calculate the limiting reactant using proportions

Theoretical proportion    Li / N = 42 / 28 = 1.5

Experimental proportion   Li/N  = 4.5/4.5 = 1

As the experimental proportion was lower than the theoretical, the limiting reactant is Lithium

2.- Calculate the theoretical yield of Li₃N

                        42 g of lithium --------------  70 g of Li₃N

                        4.5 g of lithium -------------   x

                        x = (4.5 x 70) / 42

                        x = 315 / 42

                     <u>   x = 7.5 %</u>

What are the properties of an ionic bond?
Goryan [66]

Answer:

Ionic Compounds have high boiling and melting points as they're very strong and require a lot of energy to break. The electrostatic forces of attraction between oppositely charged ions lead to the formation of ions. Ionic compounds form crystals. These compounds are brittle and break into small pieces easily.

Why is a terminal alkyne favored when sodium amide (NaNH2) is used in an elimination reaction with 2,3-dichlorohexane
mihalych1998 [28]

The question is incomplete, the complete question is;

Why is a terminal alkyne favored when sodium amide (NaNH2) is used in an elimination reaction with 2,3-dichlorohexane? product. A) The terminal alkyne is more stable than the internal alkyne and is naturally the favored B) The terminal alkyne is not favored in this reaction. C) The resonance favors the formation of the terminal rather than internal alkyne. D) The strong base deprotonates the terminal alkyne and removes it from the equilibrium.

E) The positions of the Cl atoms induce the net formation of the terminal alkyne.

Answer:

E) The positions of the Cl atoms induce the net formation of the terminal alkyne.

Explanation:

In this reaction, sterric hindrance plays a very important role. We know that sodamide is a strong base, it tends to attack at the most accessible position.

The first deprotonation yields an alkene. The strong base attacks at the terminal position again and yields the terminal alkyne. Thus the structure of the dihalide makes the terminal hydrogen atoms most accessible to the base. Hence the answer.

john dalton's original atomic theory contained the following key ideas. which part(s) of these ideas was/were incorrect?
Degger [83]

John Dalton's original atomic theory contained the following key ideas and the incorrect one is that elements are made of tiny indivisible particles called atoms and is denoted as option A.

<h3>What is Atom?</h3>

This is defined as the smallest unit of matter which forms a chemical element and Dalton proposed that it was indivisible which was later proved wrong.

It was later discovered that atom is made up of sub atomic particles such as proton, electron and neutron. This was therefore the reason why option A was chosen as the most appropriate choice.
