Answer:

18.75 g of NH3.

Explanation:

The balanced equation for the reaction is given below:

4NH3 + 5O2 → 4NO + 6H2O

Next, we shall determine the masses of NH3 and O2 that reacted from the balanced equation.

This can be obtained as follow:

Molar mass of NH3 = 14 + (3x1) = 17 g/mol

Mass of NH3 from the balanced equation = 4 x 17 = 68 g

Molar mass of O2 = 16x2 = 32 g/mol

Mass of O2 from the balanced equation = 5 x 32 = 160 g

From the balanced equation above,

68 g if NH3 reacted with 160 g of O2.

Next, we shall determine the excess reactant. This can be obtained as follow:

From the balanced equation above,

68 g if NH3 reacted with 160 g of O2.

Therefore, 40 g of NH3 will react with = (40 × 160)/68 = 94.12 g of O2.

From the calculations made above, we can see that it will take a higher amount of O2 i.e 94.12g than what was given i.e 50g to react completely with 40 g of NH3.

Therefore, O2 is the limiting reactant and NH3 is the excess reactant.

Next we shall determine the mass of excess reactant that reacted. This can be obtained as follow:

From the balanced equation above,

68 g if NH3 reacted with 160 g of O2.

Therefore, Xg of NH3 will react with 50 g of O2 i.e

Xg of NH3 = (68 × 50)/160

Xg of NH3 = 21.25 g

Therefore, 21.25 g of NH3 (excess reactant) were consumed in the reaction.

Finally, we shall determine mass of the remaining excess reactant as follow:

Mass of excess reactant = 40 g

Mass of excess reactant that reacted = 21.25 g

Mass of excess reactant remainig =?

Mass of excess reactant remainig = (Mass of excess reactant) – (Mass of excess reactant that reacted)

Mass of excess reactant remainig

= 40 – 21.25

= 18.75 g

Therefore, the mass of excess reactant remaining is 18.75 g of NH3.

Mamont248 [21]

Answer: Option (C) is the correct answer.

Explanation:

Horticulture is the study of science related to the art of growing fruits, vegetables, or plants.

Therefore, when a person graduated from a college with a degree in horticulture then it means he has obtained enough knowledge about how to grow plants, fruits or vegetables in the best way possible.

Thus, Vincent who also graduated in horticulture cannot accurately tell about human psychology.

Hence, we can conclude that the statement this claim may not be accurate because the blog is produced by someone who is not an expert in the field of human psychology.

EastWind [94]

Density is simply the ratio of mass over volume. In this case, the volume of the rock is the difference of after and before it was dropped into the cylinder.

volume = 19.73 mL – 13.31 mL = 6.42 mL

 

density = 28.63 g / 6.42 mL

<span>density = 4.46 g/mL</span>
