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

A pound of margarine costs $1.39. What is the cost of a kilogram of margarine
den301095 [7]

Answer:

              3.064 $

Solution:

First of all we will find the number of pounds contained by one Kg. Therefore, it is found that,

                                    1 Kilogram  = 2.20462 Pounds

Hence, as given,

                        1 Pound of Margarine costs  =  1.39 Dollars

So,

                  2.20462 Pounds Margarine will cost  =  X Dollars

Solving for X,

                     X  =  (2.20462 Pounds × 1.39 Dollars) ÷ 1 Pound

                     X =  3.064 Dollars

Calculate the molarity of a solution prepared by dissolving 0.2 mol sucrose in enough water to make a 100 ml solution.
Lelechka [254]

Taking into account the definition of molarity, the molarity of a solution prepared by dissolving 0.2 mol sucrose in enough water to make a 100 mL solution is 2 \frac{moles}{liter}.

<h3>Definition of molarity</h3>

Molar concentration or molarity is a measure of the concentration of a solute in a solution and indicates the number of moles of solute that are dissolved in a given volume.

The molarity of a solution is calculated by dividing the moles of solute by the volume of the solution:

molarity=\frac{number of moles}{volume}

Molarity is expressed in units \frac{moles}{liter}.

<h3>Molarity in this case</h3>

In this case, you have:

  • number of moles= 0.2 moles
  • volume= 100 mL= 0.1 L

Replacing in the definition of molarity:

molarity=\frac{0.2 mole}{0.1 L}

Solving:

<u><em>molarity= 2 </em></u>\frac{moles}{liter}

Finally, the molarity of a solution prepared by dissolving 0.2 mol sucrose in enough water to make a 100 mL solution is 2 \frac{moles}{liter}.

One difference between molecular formula and molecular weight.​
jek_recluse [69]

Answer: The formula mass (formula weight) of a molecule is the sum of the atomic weights of the atoms in its empirical formula. The molecular mass (molecular weight) of a molecule is its average mass as calculated by adding together the atomic weights of the atoms in the molecular formula.

Hope this helps.... Stay safe and have a great weekend!!!!! :D
