Given:

175 kilograms of Methane (CH4) to be synthesized into Hydrogen Cyanide (HCN)

The balanced chemical equation is shown below:

2 CH4<span> + 2 NH</span>3<span> + 3 O</span>2<span> → 2 HCN + 6 H</span>2<span>O
</span>
To calculate for the masses of ammonia and oxygen needed, our basis will be 175 kg CH4.

Molar mass:
CH4 = 16 kg/kmol
NH3 = 17 kg/kmol
O2 = 32 kg/kmol

mass of NH3 = 175 kg CH4 / 16 kg/kmol * (2/2) * 17 kg/kmol 
mass of NH3 = 185.94 kg NH3 needed

mass of O2 = 175 kg CH4 / 16 kg/kmol * (3/2) * 32 kg/kmol
mass of O2 = 525 kg

mass of O = 525 kg / 32 kg/kmol * (1/2) * 16 kg/kmol
mass of O = 131.25 kg O

Phosgene, a poisonous gas, when heated will decompose into carbon monoxide and chlorine in a reversible reaction: COCl2 (g) &lt;
Advocard [28]

Answer:

8.08 × 10⁻⁴

Explanation:

Let's consider the following reaction.

COCl₂(g) ⇄ CO (g) + Cl₂(g)

The initial concentration of phosgene is:

M = 2.00 mol / 1.00 L = 2.00 M

We can find the final concentrations using an ICE chart.

     COCl₂(g) ⇄ CO (g) + Cl₂(g)

I       2.00            0            0

C        -x             +x           +x

E    2.00 -x          x             x

The equilibrium concentration of Cl₂, x, is 0.0398 mol / 1.00 L = 0.0398 M.

The concentrations at equilibrium are:

[COCl₂] = 2.00 -x = 1.96 M

[CO] = [Cl₂] = 0.0398 M

The equilibrium constant (Keq) is:

Keq = [CO].[Cl₂]/[COCl₂]

Keq = (0.0398)²/1.96

Keq = 8.08 × 10⁻⁴

1. Find the masses of the following amounts.
In-s [12.5K]

The mass of 2.15 mol of hydrogen sulphide (H₂S) will be 73.272 gm and the mass of  3.95 × 10⁻³ mol of lead(II) iodide, (PbI₂) will be 1.82 gm

<h3>What is Mole ?</h3>

A mole is a very important unit of measurement that chemists use.

A mole of something means you have 6.023 x 10 ²³ of that thing.

  • For 2.15 mol of hydrogen sulphide (H₂S) :

1 mole hydrogen sulphide (H₂S) = 34.08088 grams

Therefore,

2.15 mol of hydrogen sulphide (H₂S) = 34.08088 grams x 2.15 mol

                                                              = 73.272 gm

  • For 3.95 × 10⁻³ mol of lead(II) iodide, (PbI₂) ;

1 mol of lead(II) iodide, (PbI₂) = 461.00894 grams

Therefore,

3.95 × 10⁻³ mol of lead(II) iodide, (PbI₂) = 461.00894 grams x 3.95 × 10⁻³ mol

                                                                  = 1.82 gm

Hence,The mass of 2.15 mol of hydrogen sulphide (H₂S) will be 73.272 gm and the mass of  3.95 × 10⁻³ mol of lead(II) iodide, (PbI₂) will be 1.82 gm
