Answer:
Explanation:
molecular mass of nylon ( C₁₂H₂₂N₂O₂ ) = 226 gm
Molecular mass of adipic acid = 146 gm
Molecular mass of hexamethylenediamine = 116 gm
no of moles of nylon = 36000 / 226
= 159.29
one mole of nylon requires one mole of hexamethylenediamine and one
mole of adipic acid .
159.29 mole of nylon requires 159.29 mole of hexamethylenediamine and 159.29 mole of adipic acid
159.29 mole of hexamethylenediamine
= 159.29 x 116 gm
= 18.48 kg of hexamethylenediamine
159.29 mole of adipic acid = 159.29 x 146 gm
= 23.26 kg .
18.48 kg of hexamethylenediamine and 23.26 kg of adipic acid will be required.
