Answer:

To gain stability

Explanation:

If the outermost shell is not completely filled with electrons, the element has one of the three options: gaining electrons, losing electrons or sharing electrons. By gaining or losing electrons, ionic compounds are produced. Sharing of electrons results in the formation of covalent compounds.

How many moles in 2.0g of carbon dioxide?
ANEK [815]
First you need to find out the Limiting reactant (LR). convert both reactants to the same thing. Check that the chemical equation is balanced.  Now use stoichiometr and remember at moles, multiply: need moles, divide2 g / 42g/mol=  0.0477 mol propane         mass propane/ Molar Mass propane = moles propane4 g / 32 g/mol= 0.125 mol oxygen X (1 mol/ 5 mol) = 0.025 mol propane   oxygen is the LRmass O2 / MM O2 X (mol propane / mol O2)0.025 mol X (3 mol / 1 mol ) = .075 mol CO20.075 mol X (12 + 2*16) g /mol = 3.6 g CO2 In one step:2 g / 42g/mol X (3 mol / 1 mol ) X 48 g/mol = 6.86 g CO24 g / 32 g/mol X (3 mol / 5 mol ) X 48 g/mol = 3.6 g CO2mass/ MM        X coefficient ratio  X MM (new)

N2(g) + 3H2(g) -> 2NH 3(g)
Nutka1998 [239]

Answer:

None of the options are correct. The correct answer is:

56.67g

Explanation:

N2 + 3H2 —> 2NH3

Molar Mass of NH3 = 14 + (3x1) = 14 + 3 = 17g/mol

Mass of NH3 from the balanced equation = 2 x 17 = 34g

Molar Mass of H2 = 2x1 = 2g/mol

Mass of H2 from the balanced equation = 3 x 2 = 6g

From the equation,

6g of H2 produced 34g of NH3.

Therefore, 10g of H2 will produce = (10 x 34)/6 = 56.67g of NH3

Therefore, 56.67g of NH3 are produced
