Explain why ammonia gas cannot be dried by passing H2SO4?

Chemistry

gladu [14]3 years ago

Ammonia is a base, and sulfuric acid is well, an acid. When an acid and base react, they form a salt. In the case of ammonia and sulfuric acid, they will react to form ammonium sulphate.

It is a solid and will dissolve in water. One would then need to separate it from the sulfuric acid that remains and then treat it with sodium hydroxide to get ammonia again.But you will likely use aqueous sodium hydroxide, which means that you have to find a way to dry the product as a result. Back to square one.

Hope this helps

What effect does the speed of molecules have on matter?.
elena-s [515]

Answer:

An increase in the speed of the molecules competes with the attraction between molecules and causes molecules to move a little further apart. Cooling a liquid decreases the speed of the molecules.

How many grams of calcium chloride would you need to make 1 L of solution containing 5 ppm calcium (Ca)?
Tresset [83]

Explanation:

The given data is as follows.

           Volume = 1 L,    Concentration of Ca = 5 ppm or 5 mg/L

As 1 mg = 0.001 g so, 5 mg /L will be equal to 0.005 g/l. Molar mass of calcium is 40.078 g/mol.

Hence, calculate molarity of calcium as follows.

           Molarity of Ca = \frac{\text{given concentration}}{\text{molar mass}}

                                  = \frac{0.005 g/l}{40.078 g/mol}

         Molarity of Ca = 1.25 \times 10^{-4} M

Hence, molarity of CaCl_{2} is 1.25 \times 10^{-4} M. Since, volume is same so, moles of calcium chloride will be 1.25 \times 10^{-4} mol.

Thus, we can conclude that mass of CaCl_{2} will be as follows.

             1.25 \times 10^{-4} \times 110.984       (molar mass of CaCl_{2} = 110.984 g/mol)

               = 0.0138 g

Thus, we can conclude that mass of CaCl_{2} is 0.0138 g.
