6.69 g.

<h3>Explanation</h3>

Make sure the chemical equation is balanced:

6\; \text{Li}\; (s) + \text{N}_2 \; (g) \to 2\; \text{Li}_3\text{N}\; (s)

Assuming that one mole of N₂ is consumed. How many grams of each reactant will that take? Refer to a periodic table for data on atomic mass.

  • 6 × 6.94 = 41.64 grams of Li;
  • 1 × (2 × 14.01) = 28.02 grams of N₂.

4.00 grams of each reactant are available. How many moles of N₂ can they consume?

  • 4.00 grams of Li will lead to up to 4.00 / 41.64 = 0.09606 moles of the reaction.
  • 4.00 grams of N₂ will lead to up to 4.00 / 28.02 = 0.1428 moles of the reaction.

However, only 0.09606 moles of the reaction is possible, since Li would have ran out before all 4.00 grams of N₂ are used up.

Each mole of the reaction makes 2 moles of Li₃N. 0.09606 moles of the reaction will produce 0.09606 × 2 × (3 × 6.94 + 14.01) = 6.69 grams of Li₃N.

What are the common properties of the following element groups:
son4ous [18]

Answer:

Alkali and alkaline-earth cations are energetically stable with an empty valence shell. Atoms of alkali and alkaline-earth elements achieve octets after losing one (alkali) or two (alkaline-earth) electrons such that they minimize the potential energy of the system.

A piece of rubber has a mass of 495 kg and a volume of 355 liters. Will it float in water, which has a density of 1.0 g/mL?
hoa [83]
Compare the density of the rubber to water. If it is less that 1 g/mL then it floats in the water.

You must compare density in the same units. So convert to g/mL 

( \frac{495kg}{355L} )*( \frac{1000g}{1kg} )*( \frac{1L}{1000mL} ) = 1.39 g/mL

The rubber does not float in water.

Please help with my chemistry homework! : Fuel burns in a car engine. Describe how oxides of nitrogen are produced in a car engi
Blizzard [7]

Answer:

Your statement is right.

Explanation:

When fuels are burned in vehicle engines, high temperatures are produced. At this high temperature, nitrogen and oxygen from the air combine with each other to produce nitrogen monoxide (NO). When this nitrogen monoxide is released in the air from vehicle exhaust systems, it combines with oxygen present in the air to form nitrogen dioxide (NO2).

Is usually categorized to a specific area in the state known as a soil series
Vikentia [17]

Answer:

Soil series as established by the National Cooperative Soil Survey of the United States Department of Agriculture (USDA) Natural Resources Conservation Service are a level of classification in the USDA Soil Taxonomy classification system hierarchy. The actual object of classification is the so-called soil individual, or pedon.[1] Soil series consist of pedons that are grouped together because of their similar pedogenesis, soil chemistry, and physical properties. More specifically, each series consists of pedons having soil horizons that are similar in soil color, soil texture, soil structure, soil pH, consistence, mineral and chemical composition, and arrangement in the soil profile.[2] These result in soils which perform similarly for land use purposes.

Which pair will for an ionic compound
vovikov84 [41]

Answer: A pair of elements will most likely form an ionic bond if one is a metal and one is a nonmetal. These types of ionic compounds are composed of monatomic cations and anions.

Explanation:

A pair of elements will most likely form an ionic bond if one is a metal and one is a nonmetal. These types of ionic compounds are composed of monatomic cations and anions.

Explanation:

The chart below shows monatomic ions formed when an atom loses or gains one or more electrons, and the ionic compounds they form. You can check your periodic table to see that the cations are monatomic ions formed from metals, and the anions are monatomic ions formed from nonmetals.
